Masterclass: Zero Trust and Cyber Insurance Underwriting

Organizations have rapidly evolved, modernized, and transformed, but did cyber security evolve with it? Watch this Masterclass to understand how we got to the current state of cyber security risk and how the cyber security industry has shifted to reduce exposure, evidenced by some organizations being in a stronger position to better protect against peril.

Masterclass Topics:

• Cybersecurity then and now. What prompted the dawn of the Zero Trust framework?
• Zero Trust defined. What it is, why it works, and how much of an organization’s data is covered?
• Zero Trust in action. How does this framework affect the insurance industry and what do cyber insurance professionals need to know?
• Real-life examples. We will look at proposal form questions and apply them to Zero Trust models.
