Beazley partners with HewardMills for data protection officer services

Specialist insurer Beazley has partnered with global DPO provider HewardMills for data protection officer services.

International cyber policyholders will now have access to a full suite of cyber risk management services, including access to data protection officer services from HewardMills.

Beazley’s new suite of services includes pre-breach and risk management services selected and managed by a dedicated in-house Beazley Breach Response (BBR) Services team.

Raf Sanchez, international BBR Services manager at Beazley, said: “Our BBR Services team is on the front line assisting our policyholders with incidents each day. We recognise that helping them to prevent these incidents in the first place is a critical benefit to their organisations and we have therefore developed this suite of cyber risk management services to protect our policyholders on all fronts.”

Dyann Heward-Mills, barrister and CEO at HewardMills, said: “Working closely with the Beazley team on data protection is an exciting proposition to launch in this evolving market. Specialist insurance is a growing market with an increasing need for global data protection services.”
