Embroker Announces Partnership With LastPass to Bridge Critical Password & Identity Protection Gaps for Small Businesses
Embroker partners with LastPass to deliver a single destination for best-in-class cyber insurance and digital protections for businesses.

Embroker, the digital platform making it radically simple to get business insurance, announced a partnership with LastPass, the award-winning password manager for businesses, to provide a single-destination, secure option for all customers looking for cyber protection. This partnership allows Embroker to better protect new and existing customers from potential cybersecurity attacks through LastPassโ€™ password management and real-time dark web monitoring. Embroker chose LastPass as a key partner in this endeavor due to their market-leading expertise and expansive customer base. Their extensive offerings are essential for businesses, including administrator controls, reporting on login activity, directory integrations, federated login and much more.

Many business owners donโ€™t understand how to fully protect themselves from cyber threats. According to a recentย studyย released by Embroker, 63% of small business owners believe they are unlikely to face a ransomware attack. The same study showed that only 28% of these business owners have coverage for cyber crimes. However, data shows that these companies are clearly at risk: according to theย Ransomware Taskforce, businesses with fewer than 500 employees were hit with 70% of the attacks in 2021.

โ€œEmbrokerโ€™s partnership with LastPass is driving innovation by combining market leading cyber insurance with best in class password management solutions,โ€ said David Derigotis, Chief Insurance Officer (CIO) at Embroker. โ€œAs an insurance provider, this partnership brings Embrokerโ€™s cyber policies to life by turning them into an active, risk mitigating solution with the goal of protecting businesses from increased cyber threats.โ€

Given the quickly evolving nature of cybercrime, founders are unable to single-handedly mitigate cyber risks for their business. Embrokerโ€™s existing cyber insurance covers financial losses resulting from data breaches and other cyber crimes that may compromise sensitive company and customer information. In conjunction with Embrokerโ€™s robust insurance policies, LastPass adds another layer to secure businesses’ digital presence and protect them against future risk.

โ€œWeโ€™re excited to partner with Embroker to help more businesses around the country improve their cybersecurity posture,โ€ said Amy Appleyard, Chief Revenue Officer at LastPass. โ€œBy implementing a strong password and identity management solution with multi-factor authentication, businesses can strengthen their cybersecurity strategy, help reduce risk, and potentially even benefit from lower cyber insurance premiums.โ€
