In The Brick Warehouse LP v. Chubb Insurance Company of Canada, 2017 ABQB 413, the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta held that a loss arising from a social engineering fraud did not meet the requirements for coverage under a commercial crime policy. This decision marks Canada’s first legal precedent on the applicability of cyber coverage for an increasingly common type of cybercrime.

 

Join Jamieson Halfnight and Anne Juntunen of Lerners LLP, counsel for the defendant, for a discussion of the decision and how it fits into the overall approach to social engineering and other cybercrime claims.
