Cyber Insurance Facts for Public Entities
Ann O'Leary
Assistant Vice President, Cyber Insurance, US, Aon
Some of the greatest risks for public entities involve the data that is stored, especially with regards to personally identifiable information, health records, the length of time records have to be maintained and reliance on third party vendors.
These risks lead to several challenges of purchasing cyber insurance. As public entities’ length of record retention increases, limited resources for IT and lack of allocation of funds, especially as technology continues to evolve requires heavier reliance on third parties.
