Cyberattacks pose risk to creditworthiness

Aon, the leading professional services firm providing a broad range of risk, retirement and health solutions, will begin providing SEI Private Wealth Management clients access to Cyber Secure Select, a holistic, service-centric approach to personal cyber security. This protection will be provided as a service to SEI’s ultra-high-net-worth clients and their families.

Current approaches to managing individual cyber security needs can be fragmented and limited. Ultimately, individuals may be left vulnerable or only partially protected. Aon’s research indicates 77 percent of high-net-worth individuals rank cyber security as their number-one concern.

Cyber Secure provides SEI’s Private Wealth Management clients a Complete Concierge Service that delivers white-glove assistance to help them through a multitude of IT and cyber security needs. Cyber Secure also includes robust device prevention and detection tools, identity theft monitoring, and access to Aon Premium Cyber Services to tailor each Cyber Secure user’s experience.

“High-net-worth individuals, celebrities, professional athletes and executives garner significantly more interest from potential cyberadversaries. Their profiles make them a more visible target, and too often, their security measures do not match that visibility. Threat actors have a variety of motives – from stalking and harassment to extortion and financial theft,” said J Hogg, CEO of Aon’s Cyber Solutions. “Cyber Secure Select is the first solution of its kind to provide cyber security to individuals and their families — at home or on the go — delivered by a white-glove, service-centric model that doesn’t force the client to become a cyber expert.”

The Cyber Secure Select offering is the result of a collaboration with NortonLifelock. Aon carefully curated a selection of world-class cybersafety, detection and monitoring tools from NortonLifeLock and integrated them with its own cyber security tools and services, purpose-built for individuals and families.

“Helping to ensure our clients’ financial wellness doesn’t stop at their wealth. As cyberattacks and threats continue to evolve, risk management is a critical part of helping protect their financial wellness,” said Michael Farrell, Managing Director of SEI Private Wealth Management. “We are excited to work with Aon in bringing our clients Cyber Secure Select, which will help enable the safeguarding of their assets. We hope that the enhanced cyber security will save them valuable time and provide them increased peace of mind.”
