Is Your IT Ready for Cyber Liability Insurance?

Cyber insurance applications now come with real technical requirements. A gap between what you have and what your policy assumes can mean a denied claim exactly when you need it most.

What Is Cyber Liability Insurance Readiness?

Cyber liability insurance readiness is the process of verifying that the security controls described in an insurance application are actually implemented, tested, and documented before you apply or renew.

Insurers commonly ask about multi-factor authentication, endpoint detection and response, tested backups, employee security training, and incident response. Heroic compares your environment with common underwriting requirements, identifies the gaps, and helps remediate and document the controls so your answers are supported by evidence.
