Solve emerging cyber insurance challenges
Adding or renewing cyber insurance is becoming increasingly challenging.
More stringent security requirements are raising the bar for SIEM, log retention, and ransomware coverage evidence.
Increasing Rates
Rates are doubling, even tripling
Cyber insurance rates are doubling, even tripling, as attackers increasingly target SMBs and MSPs in supply chain attacks.
Ransomware on the Rise
Ransomware claims require stronger controls
More stringent security controls are required for ransomware insurance claims. The average ransomware payment rose 71% from $925,000 in 2021 to $1 million in 2022.
SIEM for cyber insurance
Turn requirements into evidence an insurer can understand.
Blumira helps teams satisfy SIEM, logging, detection, and ransomware-readiness asks while reducing the operational load associated with traditional SIEMs.
Underwriting questionnaire Security controls · 4 items
Q1
Questionnaire
Check the SIEM box
Blumira's easy-to-deploy platform helps teams answer SIEM requirements without taking on the heavy administration burden of a traditional SIEM.
Q2
Retention
Keep one year of log data ready
Cyber insurers and regulations such as PCI DSS often require at least a year of log data history available for forensics after an incident.
Q3
Findings
Identify anomalous attacker behavior
Blumira notifies teams of threats other tools may miss and routes broad on-prem and cloud visibility into response-ready findings.
Q4
Ransomware
Support ransomware coverage requirements
Applications often ask for SIEM, EDR, backups, continuity, and incident response planning. Blumira supports logging, retention, SIEM, and suspicious behavior detection.
Evidence package
Keep the insurance answer tied to daily security work.
The strongest insurance story is not a form response. It is a working system for log history, visibility, and guided response when suspicious behavior appears.
One year of log data
System logs are retained, encrypted, and secured to support investigation and recovery after a security incident.
Broad on-prem and cloud coverage
Integrations collect logs from on-prem and cloud services so teams can see suspicious activity across the environment.
Guided playbooks
When Blumira detects a threat, security playbooks provide instructions for how to respond quickly.
Blumira users in their own words
Less manual log work. Faster useful response.
Customers who needed faster setup, daily log review support, and cleaner prioritization.
Blumira is a great solution. We didn't have to spend six months on the tool to get it set up correctly.
Matt Varblow VP of Engineering Services, AdvantageCS
Blumira has saved us time because we can't monitor all of our logs. We would need a team of 100 to go through all of these logs manually.
Mike Morrow Technical Infrastructure Manager, Ottawa County
Now we're able to respond to important activities sooner, since we're not wading through unimportant things.
