ARE YOU PREPARED?

Of the 1,200 industry leaders that participated in a report completed by Travelers Insurance, 55% say they worry “some” or a “great deal” about cybersecurity attacks.

Your answers to these questions can impact both your eligibility and premium for cyber risk insurance. 1. Are your firewall technologies active and up to date? 2.
