For most users the problem is someone intercepting their text messages and then using that access to rob them. Port-outs are one way to accomplish this, but certainly not the only way.

Can you defend against sim swap attacks if your MNO is compromised, how?

Where can I read more about your insurance policy? I can’t find any specific details on your website.
