AXA XL and Accenture are partnering to offer global cyber-security expertise to AXA XL’s underwriters, brokers and clients to strengthen their cyber capabilities and recover from cyber attacks.
AXA XL — AXA’s property & casualty (P&C) and specialty risk division — will tap into Accenture’s global cyber-security capabilities, including its iDefense threat intelligence team, to help its clients gain a deeper understanding of their cyber risks and provide them with actionable reports on cyber threats.
In addition, AXA XL will be able to offer its global clients additional bespoke risk mitigation services, delivered by Accenture, which will help them understand and mitigate cyber risks. This will initially be done on an industry-basis for the manufacturing, retail, healthcare and financial services industries among others, and will be expanded to cover the P&C spectrum by early 2020.
Accenture will provide post-breach security services for AXA XL clients outside the U.S., including incident management and IT forensics. For AXA XL’s U.S. clients, Accenture will provide post-breach services as part of a panel of vendors.
