Why this matters
A policy you can't claim on is money you set on fire.
Missing controls = denied claims
Attest to controls you don't have, suffer a breach, and the carrier can deny the claim. The application is a legal document — this worksheet makes your answers true before you sign.
The right controls cut your premium
MFA, EDR, tested backups, and a written IR plan are what underwriters reward. Walking into renewal able to prove them is the difference between a rate hike and a discount.
The questionnaire keeps getting harder
Carrier applications went from one page to twenty in a few years. This worksheet mirrors what they now ask, so nothing on renewal day is a surprise.
Need the controls, not just the checklist?
Kapacyber operates the MFA, EDR, backup, monitoring, and incident response that carriers ask about — and provides the annual control-attestation report brokers and underwriters accept.
