Why Do You Need Cyber Insurance?

Given that cyber threats are growing in sophistication, many organizations leave themselves exposed to the financial and legal repercussions without appropriate cyber insurance coverage.

Most affirmative cyber insurance policies (i.e., standalone policies strictly underwritten for cyber risk) provide protection to organizations against six types of security incidents: data breaches, network security liability, cyber extortion, technology disruption, cyber theft & fraud, and communication & media liability.

When it comes to policy coverage terms, there’s still some confusion within the cyber insurance market, which can muddy the waters for business leaders who need the right cyber insurance coverage for their organization while still being cost-effective.

Cyber insurance providers and brokers want to determine the security controls companies have in place to understand where there are gaps or where vulnerabilities need to be addressed. In order to meet cyber insurance requirements for a policy to bind, policyholders will need adequate endpoint detection (EDR) with Managed Detection and Response (MDR), as well as other services. However, many policies can go unbound when companies can’t put the security controls they need in place quickly enough to meet these insurability requirements.

Our partnerships with leading cyber insurance providers helps educate their brokers, underwriters and policyholders on how we can support insurability with cost-effective MDR services that are easy to deploy to ensure cyber insurance coverage binds.

Meeting Cyber Insurance Requirements with MDR

Even if your business is able to recover lost or stolen data and restore customer loyalty, the effects of ransomware can linger for years to come. Therefore, the best way your organization can combat a ransomware attack is to focus on 24/7 threat detection and response by partnering with a trusted Managed Detection and Response (MDR) provider that can help you meet even the stringent cyber insurance requirements.

As you evaluate the right MDR provider, here are some questions to consider:

Do you have an Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solution in place for all endpoints?

Policyholders need adequate endpoint detection with managed detection and response (MDR). EDR and MDR are critical components of any effective cybersecurity program, delivering improved detection, 24/7 threat hunting, deep investigation, and end-to-end coverage.

Do you have a vulnerability management program in place?
How often do you perform internal/external vulnerability scanning and penetration testing?

Managed vulnerability identifies risks for policyholders and will help build continuous awareness of the threat landscape, identify vulnerable systems, and prioritize and remediate them immediately.​

Do you train your staff at least annually on security threats and do you conduct phishing testing of your users on a quarterly basis?

To qualify for cyber insurance coverage, policyholder organizations must run regular security awareness training and testing. This ensures employees are up-to-date on security threats and procedures, businesses can help reduce their risk of becoming a victim of a cyber attack.​

Do you have a Network Detection and Response (NDR) solution in place that monitors north/south traffic and east/west traffic, 24/7?

Policyholders need the ability to monitor network traffic around-the-clock, automatically disrupt malicious traffic and respond to detected threats 24/7 so threat actors cannot complete attacks against their network environments.

Do you centrally collect and store logs via a SIEM or Log Management platform?

Storing log data via a SIEM or Log Management platform provides visibility for policyholders across network assets, endpoints, applications and cloud services enabling context and correlation that is needed when alerts and security incidents need to be investigated.

Do you have someone internally responsible for cybersecurity, have a formal Information Security Policy and run annual risk assessments?

Virtual CISO (vCISO) services can help policyholders perform a Security Program Maturity Assessment, create a cyber roadmap that reduces your risk, and do annual re-assessments.

Do you have a documented incident response plan and is it tested annually?

IR experts can work with policyholder leaders on Security Incident Response Planning (SIRP) and development, as well as table top exercises.
