Insurance Brokers
Insurance brokers handle large volumes of confidential client data, including financial records, policy details, personal identifiers, and claims information. Whether your team is working from a regional office, at home, or on-site with a client, the greatest data protection risk is often at the point of connection.
Loxada helps brokers establish a secure, compliant connection standard, wherever work takes place. By replacing untrusted infrastructure, the uncontrolled network edge, with centrally managed routers running secure firmware, we help firms address regulatory requirements for safeguarding data and maintaining operational control, reducing risk, and supporting compliance at every client interaction.
The Challenge at the Network Edge
Many insurance brokerages operate across a range of dispersed, franchised, or flexible locations. In today’s hybrid workplace, staff regularly connect from home, hotels, or serviced offices, often over networks that fall well short of enterprise-grade security.
Common problems include:
- Consumer-grade routers not built for business use
- Lack of firmware updates leaving devices vulnerable
- Shared connections, with no isolation between personal and business devices
- No visibility or control from your IT or compliance teams
These setups are rarely accounted for in security policies, yet they are now integral to the operation of most firms.
Why It Matters Now
Client data protection isn’t optional, and regulators are raising expectations.
Under UK GDPR, firms must take “appropriate technical and organisational measures” to safeguard personal data. The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has made it clear that this includes securing systems and infrastructure, not just files or databases.
For regulated firms, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) expects companies to “maintain robust controls” when working remotely, and to demonstrate that access to systems and data is properly secured, even when outside the office environment.
VPNs and secure apps are important, but they don’t solve the problem if the router itself is already compromised. Loxada addresses the risk at the infrastructure level, securing the network edge directly.
How Loxada Supports Insurance Brokers
We provide plug-and-play routers that replace untrusted or unmanaged devices with a secure, hardened alternative. There’s nothing to install, no user configuration required, and no disruption to your existing platforms or workflows.
Each Loxada router:
- Runs Loxada’s proprietary secure firmware
- Maintains a secure, always-on VPN connection
- Blocks access to known malicious domains, using live threat intelligence
- Applies automatic, cryptographically verified updates
- Prevents rollback, even if reset to factory settings
This provides a reliable, tamper-resistant connection point, wherever your team is based, with consistent protections that require no technical expertise to maintain.
Real-World Scenarios We Support
- Brokers or account handlers working from home
- Client-facing staff travelling between locations
- Small teams or advisers based in serviced offices
- Temporary or part-time team members requiring secure access
- Firms with limited central IT capacity across multiple locations
In each of these scenarios, Loxada provides a consistent level of security, data protection, and compliance, eliminating the uncertainties associated with third-party or domestic networks.
