Compliance and cyber insurance

1Password is ISO 27001, 27017, 27018, and 27701 certified. In addition, SOC 2 certified and HIPAA compliant, demonstrating its commitment to the highest security standards. 1Password complies with the requirements of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and DORA.

Cyber insurance providers assess risk based on how well an organization protects its identities, devices, and applications. Companies that lack strong authentication mechanisms, allow untrusted devices, or have unmanaged SaaS apps face a greater risk of ransomware attacks, data breaches, and compliance violations. These risks can result in costly fines, increased insurance premiums, or even policy denial.

Cyber insurers look for strong security controls that lower risk exposure. 1Password helps organizations secure better cyber insurance rates by:

• Eliminating weak credentials and reducing attack vectors supporting passwordless authentication.
• Verifying device health before granting access to applications, reducing malware and ransomware threats.
• Supporting compliance readiness with detailed audit logs, granular access control policies, and risk assessments on credential health.

Organizations that adopt proactive security strategies demonstrate reduced breach risk, making them eligible for lower insurance premiums.

The best defense against ransomware is securing credentials, enforcing device trust, and managing application access:

• Use passkeys and MFA to eliminate password-based vulnerabilities.
• Restrict access to healthy, trusted devices to prevent malware infiltration.
• Reduce shadow IT by securing unmanaged applications and verifying application access controls are properly configured.
• Monitoring device and applications to respond to security threats
