Is Your Agency Cyber-Ready?: New Assessment Helps Solve Cyber Pain Points

The Big “I" Agents Council for Technology has released the Agency Cyber-Readiness Self-Assessment, now available online as a supplement to the Agency Cyber Guide 3.0.

Agencies can use the self-assessment tool to determine where they stand on cyber readiness, including vulnerabilities, best practices, and compliance with the ever-growing list of regulations and legislation surrounding cybersecurity. The assessment helps clarify an agency's preparedness through a brief series of questions, directing back to key resources in the Agency Cyber Guide 3.0 to solve pain points.

“There's certainly no shortage of confusion around cybercrime, and it can be difficult to have a clear understanding of where your agency stands when it comes to cybersecurity," says Ron Berg, ACT executive director. “However, it's critical that agencies have thorough knowledge of their responsibilities and operations to remain a trusted choice for their clients. This resource will make it much easier for agents to assess their cyber-readiness position and develop a strong cyber-hygiene strategy."

The self-assessment tool is located on the Agency Cyber Guide 3.0 homepage, along with other tools for agencies to take action on cybersecurity. ACT provides insights, education, real resources and more to help independent agencies address workflow and technology issues.
