What CNA CyberPrep means for renewal

Understand what CNA CyberPrep means for your cyber renewal. Learn how the risk management program works and what brokers should know.

Overview

CNA CyberPrep is a proactive cyber risk management program offered by CNA to cyber insurance policyholders, designed to help companies take a holistic approach to identifying, mitigating, and responding to cyber threats. The program operates through a three-pronged framework: Identify (working with cybersecurity partners to assess cyber posture against NIST standards), Mitigate (implementing recommendations like policy development, password management, and employee education), and Respond (access to incident response vendors for breach management). CNA cyber policyholders can access fee-based preferred pricing services and value-added options as part of their policy, with the program's goal being to reduce cyber risk exposure and strengthen incident readiness. At renewal, brokers should understand that CNA may factor CyberPrep participation and risk mitigation activities into underwriting decisions.

How it Works Today

Current Manual Process

At renewal, brokers aware of CyberPrep may mention client participation to underwriter; however, there is no standardized process for documenting or leveraging CyberPrep activities in the renewal application.

Friction Points

Unclear whether CyberPrep participation counts toward renewal underwriting; no standard method to document risk mitigation activities from the program; limited guidance on whether actions taken through CyberPrep can satisfy other renewal requirements.

Ideal Output

Structured CyberPrep risk assessment and remediation history tied to the renewal application, with clear guidance on how activities map to underwriting requirements.
