Incidentally by CyberClan

During Cybersecurity Awareness Month we received several questions on a host of topics and are happy to bring some follow up answers to our audience. This week we are discussing information protection and basic tips individuals can follow to secure their private information and data.

In this episode we cover some broad topics about business interruption and the effects of a cyber breach.  Questions such as:What are some of the most common misconceptions over what cyber insurance covers and doesn't cover?When an incident happens, how does it get routed within the claims department?  i.e. Is it dependent on what type of incident it is?Are there specific ranges for periods of restoration based on what type of incident it is?What is the fundamental job of the forensic accountant and what does that process entails?What type of due diligence do you have to go through and how do you help set the expectations of your clients? Business interruption is a major expense, how do you work with the IR team, claims team, and restoration team to be sure you are properly assessing and minimizing the cost to the business?How do all the teams work together to respond to the incident and move through to system restoration?How can businesses better prepare? 

Today we discuss:What is phishing?How common is it and does it only occur through email?What is the "human firewall"?How should companies think about training their employees to look for phishing attacks?Is your company's security posture enough to protect against these types of attacks?

Has the number of data privacy cybersecurity incidents risen during this crisis? Has the response changed? Tune into this episode of Incidentally to hear from John Merchant with Optio Insurance Services, breach counselor John Mullen with Mullen Coughlin, and COO of CyberClan Kadir Levent as they discuss how things are changing and what your company needs to consider in this time as companies potentially become more vulnerable to attacks.

Cybersecurity is a broad and complex industry, cyberinsurance is an area that a lot of people are still trying to understand. In this episode we talk with breach coach, John Mullen with Mullen Coughlin, Rob Rosenzwieg with Risk Strategies, and John Merchant with Ascent Underwriting about data privacy and how cyberinsurance plays a role in reducing your risk of business interruption and impact.
