Brandaris Cybersecurity and Mica Verzekeringen work together to help SMEs strengthen their digital foundation and properly insure their cyber risks. Mica advises on the right cyber insurance. Brandaris makes sure your security demonstrably meets what the policy requires, and helps you get going again if something does go wrong.
Why this partnership
SMEs are increasingly hit by cyber attacks. Yet many business owners have not taken concrete steps. They are aware of the risks, but do not always know where to start. An attack quickly leads to downtime, recovery costs, lost data and reputational damage.
By combining knowledge of prevention, digital resilience and insurability, we want to not only recognise risks, but also reduce them structurally.

Insurance only works if the basics are in order
Many business owners think they are well insured. But a cyber policy sets requirements for your security. If those basics are not in order, the cover may fall short in practice. As Shelina Bosma of Mica Verzekeringen puts it: doing business securely starts with insight.
The Cyber Resilience subscription takes care of the measures that appear in almost every cyber policy:
- reliable backups
- email and cloud security
- antivirus
- automatic updates
- ongoing awareness training for employees
One point of contact
“Insurance should also provide certainty in practice,” says Maikel Roolvink, founder of Brandaris. With Cyber Resilience you lay the digital foundation. If something does go wrong, Brandaris helps you get back to work quickly. And everything you need to do business securely is arranged through one point of contact.
