The new service, called AXIS Cyber Incident Commander, offers policyholders affected by a cyber incident a single point of contact to access immediate guidance from experienced cyber experts.
The service includes legal counsel, digital forensic, incident response, and crisis/reputational management. These services are facilitated by AXIS-approved third-party vendors who already collaborate closely with the AXIS Cyber Risk Advisory and Cyber Claims teams.
Nicholas Steinman (pictured), will lead Incident Commander, bringing his experience in digital forensics and incident response to the role.
David Shluger, Head of Cyber Risk Advisory at AXIS, said: “By providing streamlined, rapid access to the services customers need in a cyber incident, AXIS Cyber Incident Commander aims to help get businesses back up and running more quickly, minimise the impact of the incident, and reduce the stress in what can be a complex and unnerving process.”
Lori Bailey, Head of Global Cyber and Technology at AXIS, added: “Elevating understanding of cyber threats and how to strengthen defences against them is at the heart of what we do within AXIS Cyber Risk Advisory. The launch of Incident Commander, and the appointment of Nick to our team, enables us to expand the risk advisory solutions we provide to help businesses prepare, protect, and respond to cyber risks amid an evolving cyber risk landscape.”
