Aon and Direct Line Group discussed how insurance firms can seize the initiative on privacy, cyber risk and operational resilience

Insurance Post in association with EXL hosted a live webinar where an expert panel discussed industry perspectives on how firms can seize the initiative on privacy, cyber risk and operational resilience as an opportunity to be future-ready. 

Topics covered were:

• What are the biggest operational challenges companies have faced and how can they become resilient for future disruptions?
• How can firms monitor their risk profiles and keep up with today’s evolving risk and regulatory landscape?
• What patterns are emerging in the growing number of cyber-attacks post- pandemic? How can firms ensure optimal cyber resilience as remote working becomes the norm?
• Has demand for cyber insurance increased? And how is it affecting underwriters’ due diligence requirements for cyber insurance policies?
• With more personal data coming in as a result of contact-tracing apps and surveillance, can consumer privacy be compromised? How can firms balance health and safety and privacy?
• What challenges and opportunities lie ahead for firms in the post-pandemic world?

Brad Bryant, global chief privacy officer, Aon

Robert Duncan, chief information security officer, Direct Line Group
