You don’t need to be a tech expert to keep your digital business safe. The Real Estate Errors and Omissions Insurance Corporation (E&O) is now offering free access to Cyber Guard, an online loss prevention service, to all insured real estate practitioners in BC.

Cyber threats like phishing scams, ransomware, and malware are becoming more common and more sophisticated. Staying ahead of cybercriminals can be time consuming, but Cyber Guard makes it easier.

What is Cyber Guard?

Cyber Guard is a cybersecurity program powered by DynaRisk, a global platform that protects hundreds of thousands of users worldwide. The service is tailored to the unique needs of real estate professionals and offers two distinct tools depending on your role:

For individual REALTORS®: Cyber Xpert

  • Personalized risk score and advice to improve your cyber safety
  • Risk management tools and expert guidance
  • 24/7 support if your data or accounts are compromised

For brokerages: Breach Defence

  • Dark web, vulnerability, and hacker activity monitoring
  • Employee training including phishing simulations and IT policy templates
  • 24/7 cyber support plus tools and resources for your whole team

No cost, no catch

This is a loss prevention program, not cyber insurance. There’s no policy or premium involved. But it’s a powerful way to protect your clients’ information and your own reputation.

If your brokerage is interested in cyber insurance coverage beyond this program, you’ll need to connect with your insurance broker directly.
