Cybersecurity Insurance and MFA: What You Need to Know

In this webinar, you will learn: What cyber liability insurance is, and why it’s increasingly a necessity for organizations of every size Why multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a requirement for purchasing or renewing a cyber insurance policy How Duo may help in reducing risk as well as reducing premium costs Cyber liability insurance (also known as cyber insurance) provides a general line of coverage for mitigating losses and costs from cyber incidents including data breaches, network damage, and potential business interruptions. To determine what coverage is necessary, cyber liability insurers calculate cost based on a variety of risk-factors. Among them are industry, data coverage — and, most importantly, the security measures already in place. These providers want to ensure their clients are taking the fundamental safety measures to protect their systems and users. One common basic requirement is MFA authentication for secure access to better validate the user’s identity and defend against account compromise. Much more than merely one more box in the insurance requirement checklist, choosing the right MFA solution for the modern hybrid or cloud environment can lay the foundation for shifting security strategy from reactive to proactive.
