Understanding the Impact of GDPR on Customers and the Insurance Market

December 7, 2016 (Wednesday) at 11am EST

A regulatory sea-change is occurring in the European Union, which will have deep impact on the perception and treatment of cyber risk in the region – and will shape the insurance market for cyber coverage outside of the US.

On December 7, 2016, Advisen will host a webinar that will address the likely impact of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) on the risk management environment in the EU. It will also delve into some best practices companies need to adopt to comply.

GDPR creates new risks for EU companies, some of which are insurable, others not. This session will explore how increased transparency on cyber security standards may affect risk management standards, and consequently lead to more insurance purchase.

This free, one-hour webinar is sponsored by Symantec.

Bundling Cybersecurity Protection and Risk Transfer Together: What are the Benefits?

November 17, 2016
11:00 am - 12:00 pm ET

Cyber crime costs organizations an estimated $400 billion every year, and this number is growing fast.

With an ever-increasing need for cybersecurity, insurers and cybersecurity vendors are exploring new ways to create innovative product offerings. Bundling a cybersecurity solution with an insurance offering for an organization to gain protection against cyber threats and also transfer cyber risk is one such novel approach. The joint solution offers tremendous benefits to customers and vendors.

Earlier this year, Symantec Cyber Insurance partnered with Chubb and CoverHound to offer a consolidated cyber insurance product tailored for SMBs.

On Thursday, November 17, join Symantec’s Dave Gillmore, Coverhound’s Anita Sathe, Aite Group’s Jay Sarzen, and Advisen’s Chad Hemenway as they provide a closer outlook of these emerging relationships. They will discuss the benefits of this new holistic approach to address cybersecurity challenges. They will also analyze its ability to mitigate insurance claims, enable customers with a strong security posture, access qualified prospects and differentiate insurance products.

This free, one-hour webinar is sponsored by Symantec.
