Description
Cyber security is becoming a central issue for professional indemnity insurers and firms are
being asked to demonstrate what protections they have against cyber criminals before they are offered PI cover.
This practical toolkit will help your firm increase awareness of and be prepared for cyber incidents and the threats they pose, as well as understanding how to prevent and deal with them. It will also offer assistance to help your staff comply with all their information security obligations.
As well as advice on how to safeguard digital information from both external and internal sources in the workplace, it provides a number of precedents on CD-ROM to ensure that your firm meets all of the legal and regulatory requirements to protect your personal and client data, such as:
* A cyber crime risk audit
* A mobile technology policy
* An email security policy
* An IT security checklist.
