You are at risk
when the
regulators come
The Agent is
responsible for
EVERY
electronic
communication
sent or
received by
their agency.
As an
Independent
Contractor,
you are the
responsible
party with
exclusive and
sole controller
of your agency.
This includes
your customer
service
representatives,
account
managers, etc.
Since all of
our principals
and over half
of our clients
are using
E-mail to
communicate, it
is critical for
Insurance
Agencies to
hold and
project our
integrity and
livelihood. All
parties must
have confidence
their agent
does what is
necessary to
ensure proper
management of
electronic
communication.
IDENTITY
THEFT is on
every client’s
mind these
days. Agents
owe it to their
clients to do
everything they
can to protect
the client’s
information.
One slip up and
the STATE
BOARD OF
INSURANCE
can fine the
Agency for as
much as
$10,000. State
and Federal
penalties can
be much higher
and include
criminal
prosecution.
ASN Secure can
reduce that
worry.
Government
Agencies and
Insurance
regulators no
longer accept
ignorance as a
defense.
Unforgiving
regulatory
attention has
been focused on
agencies. We
are required to
comply with
multiple legal
mandates for
measuring and
mitigating
related risks.
Industry
regulators are
fully aware
that technology
solutions for
managing
threats in
e-communication
are available
to firms that
take compliance
seriously.
Agencies must
address
regulatory
requirements to
avoid future
violations and
investigations.
Regulatory
Agencies no
longer accept
ignorance as a
defense.
More than any
other business
sector, we are
clearly under
the spotlight.
Agencies are
now aware of
the need to be
cautious
against the
risk of damage
and potential
catastrophic
loss. Even if
that loss is
unintended or
not deliberate,
we may be in
jeopardy.
In the
Insurance
Agency sector,
electronic
messaging
(E-mail) is now
an
indispensable
tool for
maintaining,
managing,
reviewing and
storing
critical
business,
financial and
medical
communication.
E-mail systems
are now the
preferred media
for business
communication,
they often also
serve as a
filing system.
The convenience
of E-mail
presents many
opportunities
for Compliance
and Privacy
violations.
Agencies need
to know that
they can
prevent these
by just
protecting
themselves and
ASN Secure is
the solution.
