In this Ransomware Bootcamp seminar, you will learn about the changes to cyber insurance and how to prepare for them, an inside perspective from a ransomware negotiator, and steps on how to train your resilience muscle to strengthen your defensive and offensive strategies.
Join CynergisTek, Lockton Companies and GroupSense on December 9th at this free, virtual Ransomware Bootcamp providing insider insights and unique value to help you stay ahead of the curve and protect yourself from being the next target.
Presented by Elissa Doroff, Managing Director & Cyber Technical Leader at Lockton Companies
Ransomware attacks accounted for 41% of all filed cyber insurance claims in the first half of 2020, according to a report by Coalition. To keep up with the cost, and rise in claim occurrence, cyber insurance providers are implementing compliance requirements that, depending on compliance capability, might increase your coverage cost or deem you ineligible to be insured at all. In this session, we hear from one of 2021’s Top Cyber Insurance Specialist Broker, Elissa Doroff who will cover:
+ Background of the always-evolving cyber insurance industry. Once deemed an organizational “nice to have”, finds itself in a pivotal point that may change the insured’s coverage decision forever.
+ A walkthrough of the top 10 cybersecurity compliance standards, and a dive into why they are important, and what they mean
+ What happens once you become insured. Including best practices to work with your insurance company, how cyber insurance works, a look into filing a claim, and a broker’s perspective on breach response.

Closing out the Bootcamp, Mac McMillan will highlight the crucial need for organizations to shift towards cybersecurity resilience, and away from a compliance/preparation-only mindset. Mac will discuss key findings from Elissa and Kurtis’s sessions and tie it all together with a “what does it actually mean for you” (our audience) perspective. Mac will also be hosting a live Q&A segment, so if you have any burning questions about cybersecurity, this is your opportunity to ask!
