Hack Day - As it happened
With the growing threat of cyber-crimes and hacks, how well are brokers placed to best serve their clients to make sure they are protected against this evolving hazard? Catch up with all the insight from the Insurance Age Hack Day.
Insurance Age and Aviva believe that understanding cyber threats are mission critical to the success of brokers today. That’s why Insurance Age hosted a full website takeover!
As part of the day our intrepid content editor Jonathan Swift (Swifty) delved into the mind of a malicious hacker to highlight exactly what they can do to damage your business and the business of your clients. He showed how four types of hack work and the impact they can have.
We also had a series of articles from Aviva’s head of SME, commercial insurance, Gareth Hemming who explained how to counter the four types of hack and revealed how brokers can protect themselves and their clients.
Throughout the day Insurance Age also hosted a series of live presentations and panel discussions to highlight the latest thinking around cyber insurance and offer brokers the best insight into this dynamic world.
