Yesterday, Oscar Six Security had the privilege of co-sponsoring the GoCyber Collective Cyber Insurance Summit in Dayton, Ohio — alongside Taft Stettinius & Hollister LLP. It was a well-run event focused on something that matters: helping municipal governments in Ohio understand the new state law requirement around cyber insurance.
This is the kind of work that moves the needle.
A Solid Panel
The discussion was led by a strong group of practitioners who know this space:
- Kirk Herath
- Zach Jacobson
- Jeremy Tickle
- Zachary Heck, AIGP, CIPP, CIPM
- John Crisp
They covered what cyber insurance actually covers, what it doesn't, and what local governments need to do to meet Ohio's compliance requirements. No fluff — just practical guidance for the people responsible for protecting municipal operations.
Why This Matters
Ohio's new requirement puts cyber insurance on the radar for local governments that may not have historically prioritized it. That's a good thing. But getting covered — and getting covered at a reasonable cost — requires demonstrating a security posture. Carriers ask hard questions at the underwriting stage.
For municipalities trying to answer those questions, the right tools make a difference. Vulnerability scanning is consistently one of the things carriers want to see as proof of due diligence. If you're navigating that process, our RADAR platform is built to give you that documentation.
Thanks to GoCyber Collective
Events like this one strengthen the local security community and give practitioners and policymakers a shared language. GoCyber Collective does real work here, and we're glad to have been part of it.
