Self-Assessment
Ten Questions Carriers Ask.
Answer honestly. Inaccurate answers on an underwriting questionnaire can jeopardize a future claim, so it pays to know where you actually stand.
1Is multi-factor authentication enforced on email, remote access, and administrative accounts?MFA is one of the controls carriers most often require to bind coverage.
2Is endpoint detection and response (EDR or managed MDR) deployed on all endpoints?Carriers increasingly expect more than traditional antivirus.
3Do you keep tested backups with an immutable or offline copy?Immutable backups reduce ransom leverage and business interruption loss.
4Do you filter email for phishing, malware, and business email compromise?Email compromise is a leading source of claims.
5Do staff receive security awareness training and phishing simulations?Human risk is a standard underwriting question.
6Do you run a patch and vulnerability management program?Unpatched systems are a common intrusion path carriers ask about.
7Do you have a written incident response plan that has been exercised?Carriers ask whether you can respond quickly and in an organized way.
8Do you limit administrative rights and manage privileged access?Least privilege limits how far a single compromise can spread.
9Is remote access secured with no RDP or admin services exposed to the open internet?Exposed remote access is a frequent underwriting disqualifier.
10Is sensitive data encrypted, with logging and monitoring in place?Encryption and monitoring support both underwriting and claims.
