Upcoming Webinar: Cyber Risk Triad: Technology, Security, and Insurance
Tuesday, July 13 at 11 AM US Central Time | Register Here
Every organization is a target for cybercrime, but medium- and small-sized companies are increasingly vulnerable. They are big enough to make the hit worthwhile, yet they lack a full-force IT department to put up sufficient defense. Cyber attacks dropped during the pandemic, and now the pace is picking up – with some high-profile ransomware incidents resulting in millions in payoffs. Cyber risk is a systemic risk, and building a better defense is mission critical. In this webinar, Lynne McChristian, John Donald, and Runhuan Feng provide tips and techniques to identify vulnerabilities and highlight a developing cyber risk model that will help insurers better price the risk in order to expand cyber coverage.
