Answering Carrier Cybersecurity Questionnaires

Questionnaires are getting longer

Carriers, errors and omissions underwriters, and cyber insurers all want to know how your agency protects client data. Incomplete or inaccurate answers can affect appointments, coverage, and premiums.

What they typically ask

• Is multi-factor authentication enabled for email and remote access?
• Do you use endpoint protection and keep systems patched?
• Are backups offsite, immutable, and tested?
• Do employees receive security awareness training?
• Do you have an incident response plan?

Answer from evidence

Keep a current record of your controls, policies, and training so answers are fast, consistent, and accurate.

Close the gaps first

If a questionnaire reveals a missing control, fix it before renewal rather than explaining it later.
