Business Wire
Aspen Insurance, the insurance segment of Aspen Insurance
Holdings Limited, announced today the launch of their cyber risk
management platform, SSIMPLE™ (“SSIMPLE’’), developed to assist
clients in the prevention and detection of, and response to,
privacy and network security incidents.
The SSIMPLE platform includes existing components of Aspen
Insurance’s Apex insurance policy and incident response
capabilities, with added and differentiating pre-incident services
at no additional cost. Aspen’s cyber insurance clients will now
benefit from this one-stop, holistic solution.
Josh Ladeau, Aspen Insurance Global Head of Tech E&O and
Cyber, said: “SSIMPLE is more than insurance. Customers enjoy a
comprehensive breadth of services, ranging from data leakage
identification, to zero day protection and vendor
assessment. Most importantly, our dedicated team of legal, privacy
and network security professionals are actively involved in the
evaluation and implementation of these solutions that are only
available to Aspen’s US-domiciled, primary cyber
policyholders.”
Designed and managed by Aspen’s in-house Certified Information
System Security Professionals (CISSPs), SSIMPLE combines
Secure Systems and Information
Management Principles with the benefits of
Loss Experience. Complexity is often a barrier to
security, and SSIMPLE allows clients to leverage Aspen’s expertise
for streamlined access to such complimentary, third-party services
as:
- a web-based portal to assess
cybersecurity posture;
- Microsoft® Office 365® security
auditing to evaluate existing configuration, identify solutions,
and prioritize actions;
- resource access to develop and improve
organizational controls (e.g., policy templates, security training
videos, and loss calculation tools);
- external network scanning to identify
security risks for clients and their third party vendors;
- Domain Name System (DNS) threat
intelligence and tools to help enforce web access policy compliance
and provide web usage analytics;
- 24/7 endpoint monitoring to identify
malicious activity, perform related forensic analyses and
accelerate incident response; and
- a web-accessible screening tool to
uncover data leakage associated with recently accessed files and
USB ports
Ladeau added: “Cybersecurity isn’t just an IT problem and spans
beyond reducing organizational risk. It is a business problem that
requires cultural integration and a genuine investment by
leadership. Business leaders, who acknowledge this and accept
responsibility for addressing cyber security head-on within their
organizations, will enjoy a competitive advantage in the
long-term.
“For the insurance industry, carriers that are able to optimize
risk management services and offer in-house, technical expertise
will be best positioned to capture market share. Agents and brokers
should consider these factors when comparing the value Insurers
bring to their clients and the cyber insurance market in
general.”
