Aon and HP Join Forces to Combat Cyber Risk
The two companies are launching a holistic solution for customers that includes hardware-level security protection, comprehensive risk assessment and remediation, rapid incident response, and options for enhanced cyber insurance coverage. The solution will be available through the HP Device as a Service (DaaS) offering, which provides multi-OS device management support and advanced analytics and proactive management capabilities.
The cyber threat landscape is rapidly evolving, with business leaders increasingly concerned about the disruptive impact of cyber riski. At the same time, the number of devices and operating systems used by enterprises is skyrocketing.
