Good practice last year isn\u2019t good enough anymore.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Even cyber-insurance providers are getting more selective before accepting cover, or worse, before paying claims.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With the number of claims skyrocketing insurers are increasingly asking, “What did you do to protect yourself from the obvious and known risk from cyberhackers?\u201d<\/p>\n

The levels of protection you put in place 1 or 2 years ago probably aren\u2019t adequate for the threats today.\u00a0 They are evolving so rapidly.<\/p>\n

Hackers aren\u2019t waiting for you to make a decision to put protections in place.<\/strong><\/p>\n

They are spending every waking moment trying to find new ways of stealing your data. They have set themselves up as businesses to do evil. They hire the best and brightest talent, and have the latest tech \u2013 simply because it\u2019s worth it. Its organised crime and these guys are the mafia of the modern age.<\/p>\n

We see continuous hacks on most of our clients. These are attempts to penetrate their firewalls, or guess their passwords on Office 365. We see fake webpages through phishing attempts, and we see techniques to harvest password reset questions by asking for favourite teachers, or first cars, or favourite band on platforms like FaceBook.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why your cyber-insurance and business continuity insurance providers will be starting to ask more demanding questions when you renew your cover. They are well aware of the risk and they want to know that you have taken all reasonable steps.<\/p>\n
