Katelyn good to hear from you. The question on cybersecurity insurance comes up a lot with my clients but over the past few years, that market has changed dramatically. Any company that wants cyber insurance will be sent a questionnaire to fill and in most cases, if the insurance company sees that you don't have a robust cybersecurity footprint, they will either reject your client or make it extremely prohibitive financially as they will recommend a whole list of solutions they would want to see before they move forward. Before your client moves forward, in broad categories they need the following 1. Robust end point protection 2. 7 layered protection for networks 3. A good Identity Management system 4. Layered data security and compliance measures 5. A well thought risk management system that includes a risk register If your client is missing in any of these five areas, my recommendation is hold on the cyber insurance because the rate of rejection is very high. Once they have figured this out, then the approach becomes a lot easier. Sorry if this is too much info but I hope it helps.

Hi Mark - absolutely - will connect with you on LinkedIn so that we are connected as well - have a great day

Trust me, I have looked at more collaboration even when I was at IBM, it is like talking to magpies and looking at the current situation and how much worse it is, looks like it has not been successful but hope is always eternal:::))

Dan I could not agree more - unfortunately healthcare data has a bigger price tag in the dark web than financial data and most hospitals and healthcare environments are not geared up the way banks are to deal with hackers hence they provide a soft target. I am pretty sure in 2024 and 2025 we are going to hear about more breaches in that sector.

My vote would go to LinkedIn messaging campaigns

Renee I am travelling for work till mid Oct but happy to do a session for anytime after Oct 15th...
