In celebration of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we'd love to share this story with you. Recently, one of our valued clients suffered a significant cyber loss that was the result of a breach of the supplier’s email system. Our client looked to Westland, as their broker, to provide valuable assistance in anticipation of legal action. Westland’s Claims Advocacy team was up to the challenge and was able to connect the client with a forensic cyber investigator to ensure that the...re were no further internal breaches in the client’s system, and to preserve evidence that could be needed in the future if legal action was to be taken. It’s easy to take our cybersecurity for granted, but these incidences happen all the time. At Westland, we have the expertise and passion to assist our clients to resolve these occurrences, and most importantly give them peace of mind. Looking to learn more about cybersecurity?

Celebrate Cybersecurity Awareness Month this October and learn the steps you should be taking to ensure your safety online. Get started by following these simple tips to keep your devices and accounts safe: Ensure all devices have a lock screen enabled. Setting up a password will help keep your information and data safe if it does happen to get stolen. Choose a complex password that you will remember that is between 8-64 characters long. The lengthier your passwords are,... the harder it will be for hackers to get access to your devices and accounts. DO NOT reuse a password. Through data breaches, passwords are being cracked and added to a database of passwords to use in future attacks. Looking to learn more about staying safe online?
