First-party coverage funds your own costs: incident response and forensics, legal counsel, notification, credit monitoring, data restoration, business interruption, and ransom payments where that agreement is included. Third-party coverage responds to claims others bring against you, including regulatory proceedings and suits by affected individuals. A data breach policy sold on its own typically covers the notification side only, which is why the two are not interchangeable.
