Organizational cyber risks go beyond threats to information technology (IT) infrastructure and the exposures that third-party vendors may carry. For this reason, conversations around cybersecurity measures should not only be for IT leaders but also for the financial leaders of an organization.
Denise Perlman, president of national business insurance at Marsh McLennan Agency, recently published an article in her Forbes Finance Council column exploring cyber risks that organizations face today. She discusses why financial leaders should be included in conversations around cybersecurity and what actions they should take to protect their organizations from these vulnerabilities.
“With the right tools and insights, businesses can become cyber-resilient. Implementing an insurance program that addresses your vulnerabilities can help protect your business from potential risks, as can rolling out preventive cybersecurity services that identify and address exposures,” writes Denise.
