Você está lidando com reclamações de seguro. Como garantir a confidencialidade dos dados dos clientes?

Handling insurance claims requires strict measures to guarantee client data confidentiality. Here are three tips to ensure the security of client information: 1. Encrypt Data: Use strong encryption protocols for both data at rest and in transit to ensure unauthorized access is prevented. 2. Role-Based Access Control: Implement strict access controls to ensure only authorized personnel can access sensitive client information. 3. Regular Security Audits: Conduct regular security audits and compliance checks to identify and address vulnerabilities promptly.

In insurance, insurance agents (or anyone handling clients sensitive information and/or personal identifiable information) are entrusted to protect clients' information which includes helping clients initiate claims. Highest level of precaution should be taken seriously to unintentionally expose clients' information when helping clients. As stated in the PII guidelines, involve only people who are supposed to be involved, turn off computers when leaving an area, don't leave any information associated to cases lying around. Best thing to do, follow PII guidelines to eliminate any unintended exposure of clients' information while helping clients.

Some things I have found helpful are implementing HSM or TPM disk encryption, but also rigorous server hardening. We must keep in mind to perform the essential against zero day attacks, such a as patching, hot fixes and so on. The vendor documentation can also help to implement appropriate secure measures. Before going to purchase systems in regarding, a thorough risk assessment process must be conducted, with senior management approval. The concerns raised in PII or PH regulations, laws must been seriously visible through all the process of systems management.

These are all good cyber security ideas however, if you do not understand, the technical stack that you were operating under it is going to be very hard to grasp what is truly needed to secure your clients data. The insurance industry has a vast amount of third-party risk from rating systems to company, portals and regulators. The insurance industry has proven to be very insecure as showcased by the amount of cyber hacks and ransoms targeted at insurance companies. In fact, it was probably stated by one of the ransom gangs that the insurance companies are one of the tastiest morsels for hacking. Insurance companies have a long way to go and tackling their cyber hygiene problems.

Handling insurance claims involves dealing with sensitive client data, making confidentiality a top priority. In India, ensuring data protection requires adherence to the Information Technology Act, 2000, and its amendments, which stipulate strict guidelines for data security. Implement robust cybersecurity measures, such as encryption, secure access controls, and regular audits. Training employees on data privacy policies and obtaining explicit consent from clients for data usage are critical steps. Partnering only with compliant third-party service providers and staying updated on regulatory changes further help in safeguarding client data confidentiality.

Access control is very poorly done as I see many insurance brokerage facilities, and insurance agents actually share passwords in order to facilitate expeditious transactions. He is not just the access from the agencies to the carriers. It’s the access from the agencies to the Registry of Motor Vehicles in various states. Age is a factor when it comes to cyber security as the majority of the population insurance industry are not savvy to these issues and are very resistant to any kind of change. We argued that brokerages are right for a cybercrime and are subject to significant digital premises, liabilities, and their professional liability coverages in fact are not meant to cover these types of significant risk to their clients.

Regular and thorough access control reviews are required based on adequate and valid policies, procedures. Regarding privilege access, MFA would be better to implement, with password complexity policy. Providing access control role and matrix scheme aligned with the organization structure and its job descriptions. The principles of need to know, separation of duty, two-personal control are the basis. All employees retirement must be going through a strict policy, by systematic revocation of user access. If federation of access is the choice of the management, with third-party, make sure the appropriate protocol, standards are implemented.
