Cyber pre-breach services from HCL Technologies (formerly Symantec)
Through our partnership with HCL Technologies, we provide the following pre-breach risk management services to help clients better understand cyber risk, and minimise their exposure to a potential cyber event:
- Cyber Resilience Readiness Assessment and Cyber Security Professional Consultation - an online evaluation of an organisation’s cybersecurity readiness, in addition to a written report and a 1-hour consultation with an HCL security professional to help improve areas of vulnerability.
- Cyber Security Awareness Training - a set of cloud-based learning courses HCL has designed to promote proactive employee behaviour, and to help defend against cybersecurity threats.
- Risk Management Expertise - topical insights on current cyber related trends, risks and threats that face organisations in today’s business environment.
We have recently expanded our offering, so now non-policy holders can access our pre-breach services too. If you plan to market Travelers cyber insurance to a client* who could benefit from a consultation with HCL, you can direct them to HCL without even informing Travelers. There is no cost for this service - even if a client does not proceed to purchase cyber insurance from Travelers.
Clients can get in touch directly with HCL by phone on +44 (0)800 587 8366 or emailing sed.cicsecuritycoach@hcl.com. A professional from HCL will respond to arrange a time to speak.
*Available to clients seeking cyber insurance via either the Travelers CyberRisk product or the Travelers Technology/Medical Technical package.
