Glasswall Halo enables insurers to securely process high-volume external uploads, using Zero Trust CDR to sanitize files in real time and eliminate the risk of malicious content entering claims platforms.
Beazley is a specialist insurer with more than three decades of experience providing clients with the highest standards of underwriting and claims service worldwide. They are market leaders in many of their chosen lines, which include cyber, management liability, professional indemnity, property, marine, reinsurance, accident & life, political risk and contingency business. All their insurance businesses are rated A (Excellent) by A.M. Best.
As part of its insurance claims processes, Beazley used various microsites and upload portals where customers were asked to submit files relevant to their claims. To improve efficiency and centralize operations, the company initiated a project to transition its microsites onto a single optimized platform.
Key objectives included strengthening security checks for each uploaded file to mitigate risks such as zero-day malware. Beazley also required a Zero Trust solution to align with strict cybersecurity and compliance standards. Additionally, the platform needed to efficiently handle and sanitize a high volume of files at speed without impacting business operations or customer service.
Following a successful trial, Beazley integrated Glasswall Halo into its new file upload portal to deliver real-time file sanitization, eliminate threats and ensure the secure processing of insurance claim files. Powered by Glasswall Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR) technology, Halo is a highly scalable Zero Trust file protection solution, and was deployed by Beazley via seamless REST API.
Halo employs a patented four-step approach to file-based security. Unlike most conventional cybersecurity solutions, Glasswall CDR does not rely on detection capabilities but instead simply removes the ability for malicious code to exist. As a result, only files that Halo has processed are now considered secure by Beazley.
By integrating Glasswall CDR into its new platform, Beazley significantly strengthened its cybersecurity posture while maintaining the speed and efficiency of its claims processing operations.
The solution has eliminated the risks associated with malicious file uploads, enabling a Zero Trust approach that ensures only safe documents can enter their systems. Supported by a seamless implementation process, Beazley maintained business continuity without disruption, while the real-time file sanitization capability ensured compliance with industry regulations and best practices.
Ultimately, the adoption of Glasswall’s technology has reinforced Beazley’s position as a leader in digital innovation. Its new portal provides all stakeholders with confidence that the latest developments in file security are protecting claims data.
“With Glasswall Halo integrated into our claims portal, we have eliminated the risk posed by malicious file uploads, without impeding operations,” Beazley’s spokesperson said.“It’s a proactive, seamless solution that dramatically strengthens our cybersecurity posture, and given the success of this project, we are now looking to implement the solution on a company-wide basis.”
Eliminate malware before it reaches your network and ensure your files are always safe and secure with Glasswall’s Zero Trust and intelligent file protection.
