Accenture now provides its Cyber Incident Response Service to help AXA XL's clients respond to and recover from cyberattacks.

In the event of an attack, AXA XL clients will now have access to Accenture Security's global network of cybersecurity expertise and technology solutions to help resolve cyber incidents.

The Cyber Incident Response Service guides affected companies through each stage of a cyber incident claim, from the initial reporting of the attack to the Accenture Cyber Incident Response team to containing the breach and restoring the business.

"Cyber threats are increasing and becoming more sophisticated, which is why we are committed to helping businesses improve their cybersecurity as part our leading cyber insurance service," said James Tuplin, head of Cyber and TMT, International at AXA XL. "Through our partnership with Accenture, our clients can access global cybersecurity expertise and technology support in an end-to-end solution to combat cybercrime."

Justin Harvey, global incident response lead at Accenture Security, said, "Insurers have a huge challenge in underwriting risks associated with the complicated and potentially devastating consequences of cyberattacks. We aim to ensure that AXA XL's clients have access to rapid, industry-relevant cybersecurity support so they can get back to business quickly."
