When providers see you have the industry-leading identity security solution, they grant and renew policies faster. 

Almost 70% of organizations currently invest in insurance, and just under 20% are considering cyber insurance to improve their cyber resilience. Whether you’re part of an organization that already has cyber insurance or contemplating investing, you should be prepared to show providers evidence of your identity security controls and their effectiveness.

Identity security solutions for cyber insurance

Control privileged access and manage enterprise passwords

Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions, such as Delinea’s Secret Server, give you the ability to automatically discover, manage, protect, and audit privileged account access. With an industry-leading vault at the core of the platform, Delinea manages all types of secrets for human and machine identities, including domain administrators, application accounts, database accounts, third parties, and business users. 

Reporting is also a crucial component of demonstrating compliance to insurers that want to see how well policies are followed. Secret Server’s out-of-the-box and customizable reporting features make reviews and audits painless.

Protect and govern server access

Cyber insurers expect to see multiple layers of control over how privileged access is used on servers, not just secure authentication. Delinea enforces MFA at server login and privilege elevation, applies least privilege policies to limit what users can do once connected, and manages just-in-time access requests for temporary privilege elevation. Every privileged session can be recorded and audited, giving you verifiable evidence of control and accountability, a key factor insurers evaluate when assessing cyber risk

Manage workstation privileges with application control

Insurance companies want to understand how you’ll deal with phishing attacks that could install malware and ransomware on endpoints such as user workstations. With Delinea’s Privilege Manager, you can demonstrate how you eliminate local administrator accounts and create allow, deny, and restrict lists to help prevent workstation-based attacks.

Govern service accounts from start to finish

Cyber insurers also want to understand how you manage account lifecylce management. Delinea’s Account Lifecycle Manager ensures proper access governance of your service accounts. You can discover, secure, provision, and decommission service accounts without worrying that you’re breaking dependencies or impacting uptime.
