The Challenge
The agency was exposed to ransomware on two fronts at once. Security tooling was outdated, which raised the odds of something getting in, and backups had never been verified, which meant the recovery path that is supposed to make ransomware survivable was itself unproven. Sensitive client records sat behind both of those gaps.
What We Did
Flux Labs deployed several layers of security rather than relying on any single product to catch everything, transitioned email to Google Workspace, and implemented daily backup verification — turning the backups from an assumption into something proven every day.
The result
What changed for Daffin Insurance
When a ransomware attack hit, the layered protection stopped it as it happened. Backups are now verified every day, so recovery is proven rather than hoped for, and the agency saw a 34% productivity gain after moving its email.
Lessons for other insurance agencies
- No single security product catches everything; layers do.
- An untested backup is the weak point ransomware looks for.
- Agencies hold exactly the data criminals want, so carriers and clients will ask how it's protected.
“They protected our data before we even realized we were at risk. They’re our secret weapon.”
