Real Client Results: $80k to $4k Insurance Savings
One of our clients — a mid-size legal firm — was paying $80,000 per year for cyber insurance with a $100,000 deductible and limited coverage.
After implementing our compliance program: New premium dropped to $4,000 per year (95% reduction), same coverage limits, lower deductible ($25,000), and faster claims processing.
Why the dramatic drop? The insurer's risk model recognized documented security controls, regular vulnerability scanning, incident response procedures, and staff security training. We didn't just promise better security — we proved it with documented compliance.
This is what proper NIST and SOC2 alignment delivers: not just better security, but measurable business impact.
The Insurance Crisis
Cyber insurance premiums have skyrocketed for professional services firms. 300-400% increases in annual premiums over the past three years, reduced coverage limits with higher deductibles, stricter underwriting requiring documented security controls, and coverage denials for firms without demonstrable compliance programs.
The reason? Insurers are paying out massive ransomware claims. They now require proof you’re managing cyber risk, not just transferring it.
Our Framework Approach
We implement security frameworks that satisfy both insurers and regulators. NIST Cybersecurity Framework is the gold standard for risk management — we map your current controls, identify gaps, and build a roadmap to compliance. Insurers recognize NIST compliance as demonstrable risk reduction.
SOC2 Type II controls for professional services firms handling sensitive client data. While full SOC2 audit certification is optional, implementing SOC2 controls proves you’re serious about security. We also handle industry-specific regulations like legal professional privilege protections, financial advisor data security rules, or architectural firm IP protection.
Supported Frameworks
NIST Cybersecurity Framework - Risk-based approach used by organizations of all sizes SOC2 Type II - Trust Services Criteria for service organizations PIPEDA - Canadian privacy law compliance for personal information handling Industry standards - Legal, financial, and professional association requirements
Compliance isn’t overhead — it’s proof you’re protecting client trust and managing business risk responsibly.
