EDR and Cyber Insurance for the Financial Sector

Businesses in the financial sector are a prime target for cybercrime. Not only do they offer access to money and other assets, but they collect and store vast amounts of sensitive personal information.

For this reason, many insurance companies require an endpoint detection and response (EDR) solution in addition to endpoint security as a condition for cybersecurity coverage. Implementing EDR improves threat detection, monitoring capabilities and incident response—all of which enhance your overall security and reduce liability for the insurer.
