Regulatory compliance in the insurance industry is meant to safeguard sensitive customer data as cyber attacks become more of a threat every year. To guarantee stronger risk and compliance profiles, insurance companies must perform cybersecurity assessments covering all their assets, including critical systems, applications, and servers.
Like financial institutions, insurance companies are prime targets for hackers seeking personally identifiable information (PII) and other sensitive customer data. As the insurance industry continues to digitize, cyber threats and risks abound— and regulations, intended to safeguard consumer information, become increasingly complex and costly to comply with.
Today, insurance agencies must secure internal enterprise systems, databases, and servers that house large volumes of PII, as well as such customer-facing conveniences as online payment portals and mobile apps. It’s a tall order, but not an insurmountable challenge, if businesses arm themselves with strong IT governance frameworks, sound risk management practices, and regular cybersecurity assessments from trusted third parties.
Since 2002, Securance has empowered enterprises to assume proactive security, compliance, and risk management strategies. Through independent assessments of our clients’ IT organizations, infrastructure, and internal controls, we identify the risks, vulnerabilities, compliance gaps, and operational inefficiencies hampering business and IT objectives and provide valuable insights that drive sustainable improvements in cybersecurity, risk management, and the alignment of business and IT.
Our engagements are led by executives with over 20 years of experience in IT security, risk management, and compliance. They are involved in the project from start to finish —from planning to reporting.
We focus on identifying technical risks within our clients’ IT environments before they turn into business risks, such as information security incidents, outages, or loss of reputation.
Your organization already has security measures in place for your IT systems, but are you sure they are protecting your systems? The majority of security breaches take months — or even years — to discover. Even with security measures in place, your systems can harbor hidden vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit.
As technology becomes more advanced, regulations become more complicated.
IT risk is a major concern for any organization, public or private. To protect your data, your reputation, and your bottom line, you need an effective, dynamic IT risk management strategy.
