Tek Video: Cybersecurity Insurance Application Questions

Written by Byron Martin | May 16, 2023

The cyber insurance market is getting stricter with its application questions and requirements.

 

Cybersecurity Insurance Application Questions

 

 

Here's an example of cyber insurance.

 

Who's got cyber insurance? Not just a rider or an add-on, but a separate cyber policy.

 

Here are a couple of things that they're asking now on cyber insurance applications.

  1. Does your backup have multifactor authentication?
  2. Is it segmented?
  3. Does it use unique credentials?
  4. Is it encrypted?
  5. And does your backup actually get scanned for malware and viruses?

It's great to back up your data, but what if your data has a virus?

 

And you're backing up the virus.

 

Ohh… that's not good.
