Every 3-5 years, insurance companies across the nation are required by the state Department of Insurance to undergo a financial examination. While essential to ensuring compliance with established state insurance standards and regulations, the exams are often time consuming and costly. For this reason, many organizations look for ways to limit the extent of an examination before it even begins. While an examination can include virtually every aspect of operations, a higher emphasis has been placed on information technology (IT) and data protection practices. This prioritization means insurance companies should consider conducting an IT assessment prior to an examination.
