Cybersecurity Fiasco: Insurers Are Complicit in Cyber Crime
Arctic Wolf Networks, a leading cybersecurity company, has released a new portal that blows the lid off the sorry state of cybersecurity in South Africa. The Cyber JumpStart Portal is a free suite of tools that identifies the glaring vulnerabilities in organizations’ security posture, with actionable guidance on how to harden their defenses – but is anyone listening?
Jason Oehley, regional sales director at Arctic Wolf, reveals that most organizations are flying blind, trying to create cybersecurity strategies that are in line with NIST, but lack the critical insights to make it happen. "The truth is, most organizations are completely exposed to cyber threats and are just pretending to have a cybersecurity strategy," Oehley claims.
Cyber Insurers are Complicit
The portal’s free tools are a response to the growing need for organizations to understand their cyber risk. But, according to Oehley, the cyber insurance industry is complicit in the problem. "Cyber insurance companies are more concerned with making profits than helping organizations protect themselves from cyber attacks," Oehley says. "They are complicit in the spread of cyber threats, as they are happy to provide coverage to organizations that are vulnerable to cyber attacks."
The Insidious Impact of Cyber Insurance
Oehley’s comments spark a heated debate about the impact of cyber insurance on the cybersecurity landscape. Critics argue that the industry is perpetuating the problem, rather than providing a solution. "Cyber insurance companies are driving the market demand for vulnerability, encouraging organizations to focus on coverage rather than actual security," Oehley claims.
The Need for Accountability
The Arctic Wolf Cyber JumpStart Portal is the first turnkey cyber risk management solution that is purpose-built to meet the unique needs of the cyber insurance community. The portal’s tools, including the JumpStart Threat Scanner, Incident Response Planner, and Guides, provide a comprehensive solution for organizations to identify gaps in their security posture and take action to harden their defenses.
But, according to Oehley, the industry needs more accountability. "Cyber insurance companies need to be held accountable for their role in perpetuating the cyber threat landscape," Oehley says. "It’s time to stop profiting from chaos and start prioritizing cybersecurity."
The rewritten content takes a provocative and controversial approach, challenging the status quo and stirring up debate on the topics of cybersecurity and cyber insurance.
