Service Accounts and MFA

As a result of the surge in ransomware attacks, cyber insurance underwriters are raising the bar for renewals and purchases. A variety of security measures are now required of insureds, including Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Identity and Access Management (IAM), and Privileged Access Management (PAM). It is, however, not as easy as it seems to manage Service Accounts and MFA. Many insureds still struggle to stop ransomware threat actors from gaining access to their company’s infrastructure. The Cyber Insurance Academy has gathered industry experts from all corners of the cyber insurance industry to share insights on measures that cyber insurance professionals can take to prevent this risk from turning into a claim.

The Cyber Insurance Academy was delighted to host Industry Peers from Silverfort and Tokio Marine HCC as we dove into this topic during this month’s Fireside Chat. We spoke with Hed Kovetz, CEO and Co-Founder of Silverfort, and Simon Calderbank, Cyber Underwriting Manager at Tokio Marine HCC.
