The Hartford said it has expanded its offerings designed to protect customers from cyber attack risks.

New additions to The Hartford Cyber Center include detection of digital risk exposure across the dark web from Terbium Labs, as well as a custom product that uses BlackBerry’s CylancePROTECT artificial intelligence (AI) and machine-learning software to safeguard business infrastructure.

Terbium Labs’ complimentary dark web scan provides The Hartford’s customers with a preview of exposure across the dark web, allowing them to detect potential leaks of sensitive information.

CylancePROTECT provides a tailored high-efficacy endpoint security platform through a licensing partnership with Verizon Managed Security Services (MSS) for The Hartford’s customers that includes: Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine-learning to detect widespread security threats including ransomware, and identification and blocking of known and unknown malware before it gets inside the network.

These two new offerings complement The Hartford’s portfolio of cyber services, which also includes access to a data privacy and cybersecurity attorney, security awareness training to help educate employees on potential threats, automated security ratings, 24/7 cyber claims hotline and more.
