AEGIS, McGriff, and Pillsbury are among
Dragos’s preferred partner brands of industry-leading cyber
insurance and incident response organizations
Dragos Inc., the global leader in cybersecurity for operational
technology (OT) environments, today announced multiple partnerships
with industry-leading insurance providers, brokers, and legal
firms. This first-of-its-kind collaboration allows Dragos customers
to create a unified incident command structure comprising internal
and external teams that are prepared to communicate with each other
and respond quickly to cyber events and minimize damages. This is
especially important for OT networks, where cyber-attacks can
result in physical process disruption and destruction.
“OT cyber-attacks are complex and can have harmful consequences
in the physical world. Dragos is unique in having both the
technology platform to detect compromise and the expert OT
responders to investigate and identify root cause,” said Mark
Stacey, Director of Strategy, Dragos, Inc. “We share a common goal
with cyber focused insurance and legal firms who are integral to an
organization’s cybersecurity: to successfully prepare and protect
our customers. These partnerships enable improved risk management
and enhance disaster recovery, business continuity, and
cybersecurity program plans for OT organizations.”
In the event of an OT cybersecurity incident, timing is
critical. These partnerships help to streamline communications and
pre-configure roles and responsibilities for technical responders,
plant personnel, insurance carriers, brokers, and legal firms.
With these partnerships, carriers have verified Dragos as
offering the technology, expertise, and resources needed to
effectively respond to OT cyber incidents. These partnerships also
enable efficiencies and synergies that enable more comprehensive
incident response, refine impact potential, and improve cyber
resiliency.
Dragos is announcing partnerships with the following firms:
- Antigen Security
- AEGIS Insurance
- Arch Insurance
- McGriff Insurance Services
- Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLC
Additionally, the Dragos Platform has been appointed to the
NetDiligience Cyber Risk Management Portal, eRiskHub®.
The Dragos Platform offers comprehensive OT network visibility
and monitoring, enabling customers to identify and inventory
assets, manage and prioritize vulnerabilities, and detect threats
with enhanced context from industry-leading OT cyber threat
intelligence. Users can easily initiate investigations using
relevant activity logs, timeline views, and response playbooks
authored by Dragos experts, ensuring a thorough approach to
incident investigation and response plan activation. Additionally,
Dragos provides a range of OT cyber services, including proactive
threat hunting, incident response planning, and retainer services,
ensuring robust protection and preparedness.
“Dragos is leading the way with innovative solutions that boost
the security and resilience of operational technology and critical
infrastructure,” said Steven Legg, CEO and Co-Founder of Antigen
Security. “Antigen is excited to incorporate Dragos's proven
outcomes into our underwriting standards.”
“Recent events have shown cyberattacks present an existential
risk for both the public and private sector, and that the time to
plan and prepare for cyber disruption is now,” said Pillsbury
Cybersecurity, Data Protection & Privacy co-leader Brian Finch.
“Pillsbury is thrilled to be a part of Dragos’s inaugural raft of
partners, joining with other industry leaders to collectively
provide best-in-class pre- and post-incident cyber resources and
guidance, ensure organizational readiness and minimize
fallout.”
“Through this unique collaboration, insurance carriers gain a
better understanding of the environments’ risk for policy
decisions, legal representation is better prepared where privilege
or materiality may apply, and incident responders better understand
channels of communication for critical findings,” stated Stacey.
“All stakeholders benefit, and our shared customers are better
prepared.”
