Beazley unveils international cyber & breach response broker portal

Specialist insurer Beazley has launched a cyber & breach response portal to help prepare brokers and coverholders for the rapidly evolving cyber risk landscape.

The portal is aimed at international brokers placing non-US risks. It will offer information and resources to help them understand the available services, and to better prepare and plan for a data breach event.

The brokers will have access to a vast suite of information – from cyber basics, through to industry-specific issues, regulatory updates, product information, breach and claim examples and risk insights, as well as a range of external sources from selected partners that provide additional knowledge and insight.

Paul Bantick, global head of cyber & technology insurance at Beazley, said: “It is very difficult if not impossible for most organisations to completely avoid cyber risk, particularly in the current remote-working environment. But they can prepare for it.

"The insurance market can play a crucial role in helping prepare, which is why we have created this portal. The portal provides international brokers with the valuable insight and tools they need to understand the risk environment faced by our mutual clients face in these challenging times.”
