Assurant Partners with GamaSec to Protect Website Owners from Cyberattack
Assurant, Inc. (NYSE:AIZ), global provider of risk management solutions,
is teaming up with website security company GamaSec to significantly
lower the risk of attacks on small and medium business websites.
Assurant is providing support for the limited warranty issued by GamaSec
with its new GamaCyber website security offering. The warranty helps
businesses get back on their feet after damages from website or web
application attacks, including costs related to data restoration,
customer notification, credit monitoring, public relations and more - up
to $50,000 for impacted users.
"Small and medium businesses can run significant risks if their websites
and web applications are vulnerable," said John Frobose, senior vice
president, Assurant. "As specialists in risk management, we're working
with GamaSec to strengthen the resilience of businesses in the event
they fall prey to web attacks."
"Customers are demanding cyber-security offerings that integrate
warranty protection at an affordable price," said Robert Zimmer, vice
president, Strategy & Business Development, GamaSec. "With Assurant's
support, GamaSec is introducing GamaCyber, an offering that combines
website security and a limited data-breach warranty."
The GamaSec partnership is the latest in a series of technology-base
innovations in risk management from Assurant, which also safeguards
millions of electronics owners, car- and home-sharing customers, and
small package shippers.
