What operational challenges have insurance companies faced and how can they ensure optimal cyber resilience for future disruptions?
Insurance Post in association with EXL hosted a live webinar where an expert panel discussed industry perspectives on how firms can seize the initiative on privacy, cyber risk and operational resilience as an opportunity to be future-ready.
