FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Why do insurance companies need penetration testing?

Insurance companies handle vast amounts of sensitive data, making them prime ransomware targets. Without real-world attack simulations, vulnerabilities go undetected, putting policyholder trust, financial stability, and regulatory standing at risk. Continuous penetration testing helps you make the leap from reactive to proactive security.

How does Astra’s penetration testing help meet insurance compliance requirements?

Astra’s penetration testing approaches and techniques align with insurance compliance mandates like NAIC, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 by exposing fundamental security gaps, not just checking boxes. This helps you stay resilient against evolving threats, reducing breach risk and regulatory scrutiny before they become costly failures.

What types of vulnerabilities does Astra identify in insurance systems?

Astra identifies critical vulnerabilities that threaten insurance platforms, from API misconfigurations exposing policyholder data to business logic flaws that fraudsters exploit. It uncovers privilege escalation risks, insecure third-party integrations, and ransomware entry points—going beyond automated scans to detect the nuanced threats attackers actually use to breach insurers.

How does Astra’s pentesting protect policyholder data from breaches?

Astra’s pentesting goes beyond basic scans to simulate real-world attacks on policyholder data, exposing vulnerabilities before hackers do. With continuous testing, expert-led assessments, and rapid remediation insights, insurance firms can stay ahead of breaches, effortlessly securing trust, compliance, and business continuity.

Does Astra’s testing cover web apps, APIs, and cloud infrastructure for insurers?

Yes, Astra’s testing secures web apps, APIs, and cloud infrastructure by combining automated and manual pentesting with AI augmentations to run 10,000+ test cases to uncover API abuse, misconfigurations, and business logic flaws. Custom-built for insurers, it prioritizes your real risks—not just generic threats.

How often should an insurance provider conduct penetration testing?

Insurance providers should conduct penetration testing continuously—not just annually. With evolving ransomware threats, API exposures, and compliance demands, absolute security comes from ongoing testing that mirrors real-world attacks, ensuring vulnerabilities are identified and fixed before they become breaches, accompanied by in-depth quarterly pentests.

How long does an insurance pentest take, and will it cause downtime?

A well-executed insurance pentest should take 7-10 business days on average, depending on scope and complexity, without causing downtime. Modern testing integrates seamlessly into your pipeline, ensuring continuous security validation without disrupting claims processing, underwriting, or customer experience.
