Cyber Self-Assessment

Marsh’s industry leading global unified cyber controls assessment and insurance application tool

Cyber is an enterprise-wide, strategic business risk that needs to be approached collectively by one team in an organization, inclusive of business, security, operational, and risk experts. However, the average timeframe it can take an organization to identify, assess, pilot, and appoint the various resources and capabilities needed across the firm to support its cyber program is uncommercial in the fast-moving landscape of cyber.
