Cisco and Apple joints partnership to ensure cyber insurance

Recently ransomware has proved a big threat causing huge financial losses for businesses. Now Cisco and Apple joints partnership to combat such issues with cyber insurance. In a joint partnership between Aon, Allianz, Apple and Cisco, insurance is now available for cyber security threats.

The most frustrating part of any attack can be data loss. No doubt it becomes extremely expensive for any sort of business. As a result of this alliance, Cisco Ransomware Defense will be offered as the recommended solution. You will get endpoint protection with Talos service of Cisco which will also analyze e-mails and cover many traditional means of detecting malicious software. In case of any threat, Cisco and Aon will work with clients to appropriately respond to attacks.

In this partnership, Apple will work with Allianz to manage risk for organizations. With the help of secure networking protocols and always-on hardware encryption, businesses will get an environment that is relatively risk-averse for corporate deployment.

To get this cyber insurance, any group must first pass a "Cyber Resilience Evaluation". The business must have Apple hardware and properly configured Cisco Ransomware Defense on its systems. Allianz will do a preliminary assessment and then insurance options will be presented on a per client basis.
