Tap a line for the reasoning

  • Gift cards CHF 500–3'000 add-on

    Often below the deductible. How we got there: Assumption.

Usually paid by the cyber policy
nothing
Open or only with an add-on
CHF 500–3'000
Usually stays with the business
nothing

Likelihood high

A shop assistant receives an email from the supposed owner and buys gift cards for CHF 2'000.

How it unfolds: Employee buys gift cards for the boss

Entry point: Fake sender address

What AI changes: AI writes flawless, personally tailored phishing emails in German close to Swiss dialect; the old warning sign of «bad German» disappears. According to IBM, attackers used AI in 16% of data breaches in 2025, mostly for phishing.

Why high? NCSC: many reports of the gift card scam.

Where does it say so?

What prevents it

  • Rule: never buy gift cards on instructions by email.
  • Call back.
  • Training.
Pitfalls in the terms: Employee buys gift cards for the boss
  • Social engineering is usually only an add-on module (AXA A6, Mobiliar B8, Zurich module G Premium) or has a low sub-limit (Helvetia ECO CHF 30'000). Without the add-on, the cyber policy does not pay the amount transferred.

  • IT service provider: clean-up, rebuild, restoring the backup CHF 900–3'400 covered

    Restoration of data, software and systems in the basic cover; Sunrise/AXA collective only up to CHF 20'000 first-party loss. How we got there: 5–15 h × CHF 180–225/h (IT support for SMEs, office hours)

  • Reset tills CHF 180–2'400 covered

    Restoration of data, software and systems in the basic cover; Sunrise/AXA collective only up to CHF 20'000 first-party loss. How we got there: 1–3 devices × CHF 180–800 per device

  • Loss of revenue CHF 3'000–9'200 limited

    Only after the waiting period (AXA 12 h, Mobiliar 12 h only with add-on, Helvetia 24 h, Zurich only Optimum/Premium). What is reimbursed is revenue minus saved costs (AXA) or EBITDA (Helvetia), not revenue. How we got there: 1–3 days × around CHF 6'100 revenue/day × 50% (SFTA VAT statistics 2024, average of businesses liable for VAT; small businesses are lower)

  • Ransom CHF 470–930 limited

    Ransom: Mobiliar and Sunrise never, AXA only with extension, Zurich within sub-limit 25%, Helvetia CHF 30'000–100'000, Chubb in principle yes; reporting to the police is mandatory. How we got there: Documented: 500 euros (stationery shop DE), 1'000 euros (hairdresser DE), converted at an assumed rate of 0.93.

Usually paid by the cyber policy
CHF 1'080–5'800
Open or only with an add-on
CHF 3'470–10'130
Usually stays with the business
nothing

Likelihood medium

Via an outdated router, attackers get into the till system of a stationery shop and encrypt it. The perpetrators demand 500 euros; the shop sells only for cash with handwritten notes for two days.

How it unfolds: Till blocked by ransomware

Entry point: Outdated router, operating system without updates

What AI changes: AI speeds up finding open vulnerabilities (router, VPN, remote maintenance) and writing extortion emails; the time between publication of a vulnerability and an attack is getting shorter, and the insurers’ patch deadline (14 or 30 days) becomes tight.

Why medium? Documented in Germany (stationery shop, grocery shop closed for several days).

What prevents it

  • Keep the router and till system up to date.
  • Tills capable of working offline.
  • Backups.
Pitfalls in the terms: Till blocked by ransomware
  • Patch deadline: close critical vulnerabilities within 30 days (AXA C2, Zurich Art. 6, Helvetia 3.6.1.1), at Mobiliar within 14 days; Mobiliar excludes losses caused by software without manufacturer support (E let. n).

  • Waiting period: loss of income only after 12 hours (AXA; Mobiliar only with add-on B4) or 24 hours (Helvetia); at Zurich only in Optimum/Premium, waiting period according to the policy. An outage shorter than the waiting period is borne by the business.

    Excluded in all cyber GTC reviewed (AXA B6, Mobiliar E let. e, Zurich Art. 5, Helvetia 3.2.3 b, Chubb 4.8); at AXA also the resulting loss of income. How we got there: Lower limit: Belgium around EUR 100'000 for around 60 branches, on average around EUR 1'700 per branch. Upper limit: value of goods CHF 40'000 in the cold room of a butcher’s shop (Zurich property factsheet) as an assumption for a shop with a large range of fresh products.

  • Refrigeration technician: reset the control system CHF 810–3'400 covered

    Restoration of data, software and systems in the basic cover; Sunrise/AXA collective only up to CHF 20'000 first-party loss. How we got there: 3–10 h × CHF 270–338/h (IT support with 50% surcharge outside office hours)

  • Loss of revenue CHF 1'800–3'700 not covered

    Consequence of the property damage. How we got there: 1–2 days × around CHF 6'100 revenue/day × 30% (SFTA VAT statistics 2024, average of businesses liable for VAT; small businesses are lower)

During the night, attackers switch the refrigerated and freezer cabinets of a grocery shop to defrost mode; the temperature rises to 50 degrees. Meat, dairy products and frozen goods have to be disposed of.

How it unfolds: Refrigerated shelves heated up overnight

Entry point: Remote monitoring of the refrigeration system on the internet

What AI changes: AI makes mass scanning cheaper.

Why medium? Documented in France (more than 230 branches; CERT-FR: numerous compromises), Belgium (goods worth around EUR 100'000), Sweden and Germany; no case known in Switzerland as of 06.11.2026.

What prevents it

  • Refrigeration system not directly on the internet.
  • Independent temperature alarm.
  • Clarify the gap in cover with the adviser.
Pitfalls in the terms: Refrigerated shelves heated up overnight
  • Property damage excluded: no cyber GTC reviewed pays for spoiled goods, dead animals or damaged machines (AXA B6, Mobiliar E let. e, Zurich Art. 5, Helvetia 3.2.3 b); AXA also excludes the loss of income resulting from the property damage. The control system itself counts as an IT system (AXA E11, Zurich Art. 102.1).

    Only after the waiting period (AXA 12 h, Mobiliar 12 h only with add-on, Helvetia 24 h, Zurich only Optimum/Premium). What is reimbursed is revenue minus saved costs (AXA) or EBITDA (Helvetia), not revenue. How we got there: 2–4 days × around CHF 6'100 revenue/day × 20% (assumption: online share) (SFTA VAT statistics 2024, average of businesses liable for VAT; small businesses are lower)

  • Additional costs of defence (geo-filters, blackholing) CHF 900–4'500 limited

    Only after the waiting period (AXA 12 h, Mobiliar 12 h only with add-on, Helvetia 24 h, Zurich only Optimum/Premium). What is reimbursed is revenue minus saved costs (AXA) or EBITDA (Helvetia), not revenue. How we got there: 5–20 h × CHF 180–225/h (IT support for SMEs, office hours)

A DoS attack paralyses a shoe shop’s webshop during its busiest period. After a few days the attack is repelled; sales are lost.

How it unfolds: Webshop paralysed during the Christmas period

Likelihood low

A card terminal is swapped or manipulated and reads cards. The card companies notice an accumulation of misuse and demand an investigation.

How it unfolds: Manipulated card terminal

Entry point: Physical manipulation, skimming

What AI changes: Hardly any AI connection.

Why low? Skimming at terminals is declining (chip, contactless); Swiss cases in retail are not public.

What prevents it

  • Check terminals daily for changes.
  • Mount terminals firmly.

Perpetrators steal the login data of a refrigeration and air conditioning service provider and use them to get into the shop’s network, all the way to the tills.

How it unfolds: Break-in via the air conditioning technician’s access

Entry point: Login data of a service provider

What AI changes: No direct AI connection.

Why low? Well-known case Target (USA, 2013) via a refrigeration technician.

What prevents it

  • Service providers only in their own, separate network.
  • Separate accounts with two-factor authentication for each service provider.
  • Block access after each job.

Ranges for a small to medium-sized business, not an insurance benefit. Deductible, sums insured and sublimits come on top. The bars on all receipts use the same scale.

Overview based on public policy terms, as of 06.11.2026. Only your policy and its general terms and conditions (GTC) are binding. No confirmation of cover.

What a day of downtime costs

CHF 6'100 Average revenue per day; your business may be smaller.

CHF 700–1'600 Annual premium for a micro business, indicative value based on the Helvetia rate, group C, not a quote.

Where the figures come from

Average of businesses liable for VAT (SFTA 2024); small businesses are lower. Only the loss of income after the waiting period is insured (revenue minus saved costs or EBITDA). Reliability: medium.

Waiting period: loss of income only after 12 hours (AXA; Mobiliar only with add-on B4) or 24 hours (Helvetia); at Zurich only in Optimum/Premium, waiting period according to the policy. An outage shorter than the waiting period is borne by the business.

Only a few insurers publish rates. We assign your industry to the Helvetia rate Group C (among others, retail, food production, metal goods, doctors, lawyers); this assignment is ours, not the insurer’s.

Indicative premiums for Retail (shop) per year (indicative value, not a quote)
Business Sum insured Annual premium How we got there
Micro business < CHF 1 million revenue, butcher’s shop/retail/food production (Helvetia Group C, assignment of butcher’s shop derived) First-party loss 50'000–200'000, liability 500'000–1 million around CHF 700–1'600Indicative value, not a quote
How we got there for Micro business < CHF 1 million revenue, butcher’s shop/retail/food production (Helvetia Group C, assignment of butcher’s shop derived)
