Your path to be Cyber Insurance Audit ready.

Having trouble with Cyber Insurance? You’re not alone.

As cyberattacks become more sophisticated and frequent, insurers are tightening the screws on policyholders. Many organisations are now finding themselves caught between rising premiums and increasingly complex compliance requirements. If you’re struggling to meet the criteria or simply unsure what insurers are even asking for—Compnow is here to help.

The Challenge

Cyber insurance providers are no longer just checking if you have antivirus software—they’re demanding proof of advanced controls, active monitoring, and clear incident response strategies. Organisations are expected to demonstrate robust backup systems, long-term data retention, and often ISO certification. The result? Many businesses are left scrambling to prepare for audits or facing costly premiums without a clear roadmap.

What Are Cyber Insurers Asking For?

To pass audit and gain approval for cover, cyber insurers typically look for:

• ISO 27001 certification or alignment
• Immutable and air-gapped backups
• Long-term data retention
• Proven incident detection and response capabilities
• 24/7 threat monitoring
• Separation of backup environments (e.g., “backup of last resort”)

These controls not only protect your organisation but also give insurers confidence that you can recover quickly in the event of an attack—minimising their risk.

Built for Compliance

Compnow Cloud offers enterprise-grade solutions that directly align with insurer expectations:

• ISO 27001-aligned infrastructure
• Immutable storage – Protects data from tampering and ransomware encryption
• Air-gapped backups – Safeguards critical data in isolated environments
• “Backup of last resort” – A secure, final layer of recovery you can count on

These aren’t just technical buzzwords—they’re the exact elements insurers look for when approving cover.
