If I were truly paranoid (and security people sometimes are), I would not publicly disclose whether or not my 
institution had liability insurance, nor any policy details if we did.  That would tell a skilled attacker how much 
they could extort from us.

Good Morning Colleagues,



Our foundation is wondering about cyber and network liability insurance and if other Universities have it and if it is 
recommended.  Your quick responses are greatly appreciated.
