Cyber-attacks have become increasingly prevalent – especially over periods when online purchases skyrocket. This makes it more challenging for people to use their identity to access online services without allowing fraudsters to gain access to their information for financial gain (identity theft).

As fraudsters are constantly evolving their tactics used to prey on the vulnerable, we explore some tips to prevent you from falling victim to unnecessary, unpleasant, and expensive scams.

The recent increase in remote working and online engagement has brought new cyber business risks to the fore, with various attacks from ransomware to malicious websites, scams, and attacks targeting commonly used platforms highlighted in the news.

Barker Commercial Cyber Insurance, underwritten by iTOO, provides our business clients with access to expert knowledge and resources to effectively manage and recover from potential malicious cyber-attack incidents.

The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPI Act or POPIA) commenced on 1 July 2020, with critical sections of POPIA coming into effect.

The insurance sector, in particular, processes extensive amounts of high-risk personal client information. It is essential that companies manage their risk exposure by enforcing robust data governance measures.

In August 2020, iTOO Special Risks shared an informative video with comprehensive insight into what practical considerations a company striving towards compliance with POPI can do.

Data is critical to any business and, as such, should be thoroughly protected by various tried and tested measures.
