SSP Broker has bolstered its technology for the company’s 500 broker partners by rolling out multi-factor authentication (MFA).
The initiative, which makes SSP Broker one of the first software houses to offer this level of protection, comes amid the government’s ‘Stop! Think Fraud!’ campaign.
“Cyberattacks in the insurance sector are growing exponentially in the move to digitisation,” SSP Broker managing director Martyn Mathews said in an emailed release. “Few companies understand more than SSP why it is critical to have the right cyber protections in place, and this has driven our focus on addressing this issue head-on.
“SSP Broker has invested over £1 million to ensure our clients are protected, including the introduction of a critical safety feature, multi-factor authentication.
“This simple but highly effective rollout of MFA for brokers in the UK has ensured all users of our technology are better placed to protect their customers, their supply chain, and themselves from this threat and create a safer industry for us all.”
