IT Support for Insurance Agencies
Insurance agencies handle sensitive policyholder and financial data every day, making security and compliance essential. HERO delivers specialized IT support and cybersecurity for insurance agents and agencies, providing secure, reliable systems with 24/7 protection, compliance oversight, and flat-rate pricing.
The Technology Struggles Facing Insurance Agencies
Common IT Challenges for Insurance Agents
Data Security Threats
Insurance firms store personal and financial data that makes them prime targets for phishing, ransomware, and breaches. A single attack can damage client trust and trigger penalties.
Compliance Demands
Agencies must comply with GLBA, NAIC model laws, and state privacy regulations. Without strong IT policies and reporting, firms risk failed audits, fines, and reputational harm.
Remote Workforce
Agents often work from client offices or home, requiring secure access to claims and policy systems. Without proper safeguards, remote work increases exposure to cyber risks.
Legacy Systems
Many agencies rely on outdated software and infrastructure. These legacy systems slow productivity, create inefficiencies, and open vulnerabilities for cybercriminals to exploit.
