IRDAI’s New Forensic Auditor Rules Explained for Insurers

IRDAI’s New Forensic Auditor Rules Explained for Insurers


The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI), as issued an important directive that will change the way insurers handle cyber incidents. They have mandated that insurers that they must empanel forensic auditors in advance, to help insurance companies respond to cyber-attacks and data breaches in a timely and effective manner. This is part of the larger IRDAI guidelines on cyber security and incident preparedness, released in 2023.  

In this blog we will analyze the IRDAI guidelines about forensic auditors, explain what this means for insurers, and why meeting this directive will be critical to your insurance business. 

What Is the IRDAI Notification About? 

As per the latest circular published by IRDAI, the increasing trend of risks of cyber incidents are now creating data security and operational continuity challenges for insurers. To mitigate any potential risk, the regulator has mandated that all regulated firms (insurers or insurance intermediaries) must empanel forensic auditors in advance.  

Why is this so significant? The longer the delay in forensic investigation, the more damage data breaches and cyber incidents can cause. With the IRDAI notification sending out timelines on when forensic experts can get engaged, very quickly the forensic supporters will already be in place and begin the process to conduct a root cause analysis and a proper forensic investigation. 

How Can Insurers Comply with IRDAI’s Forensic Auditor Rules? 

1. Empanel Forensic Auditors in Advance 

It is essential that insurers proactively identify and select qualified forensic auditors prior to any incident occurring, so that forensic investigations can get started immediately without any obstacles, providing prompt information on cyber breaches and other security incidents. When forensic auditors are brought on board early, insurers can choose auditors based on expertise, reputation, and track records, and meet IRDAI's expectations for preparedness and accountability. 

2. Establish Clear Procedures for Forensic Engagement 

Insurers should draft and record clearly defined procedures on how forensic auditors are to be engaged in the event of a cyber incident. These procedures should minimally include notification procedures, scope of work, and coordination with other internal teams and regulators. Specifying a process reduces confusion during crisis situations and ensures smooth collaboration. 

3. Report Compliance to the Board 

IRDAI requires insurers to report their readiness of their forensic auditor empanelment and their cyber incident readiness framework at board meetings or events. Keeping a record of compliance and submitting the minutes to IRDAI indicates accountability and transparency and upholds the organization's Regulatory standings. This regulatory oversight provides an opportunity for continuous improvement and enhancement of an organization's cybersecurity governance framework. 

4. Train Staff on Cyber Incident Response 

Insurers should not only focus on empanelment but also educate their staff in identifying, reporting, and responding to cyber events. By having well-informed staff, insurers can act quickly and accurately to restore and recover from incidents; staff training helps minimize damage to their systems and passengers while allowing forensic auditors to conduct their evaluations. Combined, the empanelment and enhanced staff education will significantly increase the overall resilience for insurers to cyber threats. 

5. Maintain Updated Records and Documentation 

It is critical to update forensic auditor panels as well as cyber incident response plans regularly to meet the demands of new threats. Insurers should periodically refresh both their arrangements and documentation to ensure compliance with IRDAI and preparedness for emerging cyber threats. 

Why Has IRDAI Made This Mandatory? 

In today’s world, the insurance sector has experienced an increase in instances of cyberattacks and data breaches, which strike at the heart of sensitive customer information and disrupt continuity for insurers. To address and mitigate these broadening risks, the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) made a declaration stating insurers must empanel forensic auditors going forward. The empanelment as stipulated in the administrative guide directs insurers to ensure they are always prepared to quickly initiate a full forensic investigation free from administrative delays.  

Cyberattacks today have become increasingly advanced and complications can arise leading to extreme financial losses combined with significant reputational damage if the attack is not responded to aggressively to contain the loss. The empanelment requirement supports forensic auditor forensic investigation capabilities and IRDAI's overall goal of enhancing insurers' cyber incident readiness and response capability. The rulemaking guidance highlights the importance of diligent root cause analysis to limit damage and have the insurance sector fulfil regulatory obligations. Overall, the proactive empanelment requirement protects customer data, enhances business continuity, and retains trust in the insurance ecosystem. 

Who Are Forensic Auditors and Why Are They Important? 


Forensic auditors are professional experts trained to investigate and analyze cyber incidents, data breaches and security failures. For example, they may use advanced techniques to collect digital samples of evidence, conduct root cause analyses and help organizations understand how breaches occur. Their job is relevant to organizations to highlight risks, preventing future incidents and if the situation were to warrant it, provide legal evidence for insurers, etc. Cyber threats are becoming more complex and occurring with increasing frequency. Forensic auditors are frontline individuals that guarantee that the insurer has a clear understanding of the security failure. They have expertise in compliance with rules and regulations and help contractors fulfil their responsibility to protect customer data. IRDAI’s goal to empanel suggests their deep commitment to have forensic auditors, as there are used as a resource for cyber incidents to come in and lay technical consequences of the incident to limit risks and losses in terms of exposure, responsibility and liability. 

Why IRDAI Requires Forensic Auditors for Insurance Companies 

The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) has issued an order for the empanelment of forensic auditors to improve preparedness for cyber incidents and to better detect insurance frauds. Given the increasing cyber threats and fraudulent claims, forensic investigation processes need to be immediately initiated after a cyber incident to mitigate financial, reputational, and business discontinuity impacts. 

By empaneling forensic auditors in advance, your company can: 

  • Conduct prompt and accurate root cause analysis of cyber incidents 

  • Detect and investigate suspicious insurance claims effectively 

  • Ensure strict compliance with IRDAI Information and Cyber Security Guidelines 2023 

  • Protect customer data integrity and prevent significant financial losses

We will verify the authenticity of policy documents, identifications, and supporting documentation with various forensic methods and tools. This is important in assisting insurance companies to minimize or avoid prospective payouts based on altered or forged documentation, as well as protecting both the customer and the company.

We create a comprehensive fraud risk profile to help an insurer identify what areas within their operations are exposed to fraud risk. A thorough report is then made, using the fraud risk profile as a key risk factor and potential suspicious activities that could help an insurer proactively mitigate those areas of fraud risk. This report will help to identify important indicators for strategic direction and risk management. The report will also assist the insurer to comply with IRDAI regulation pertaining to their risk management activities.

What to do if you suspect an insider data breach
What to do if you suspect an insider data breach
Just imagine thinking that an insider has breached your organization’s sensitive information. This can be incredibly stressful and one of those situations you never want to encounter. But if you find yourself facing one, you are not alone. More common than most think, and if you apply these measures, you can take control back, protect your company, and make a recovery.At Proaxis Solutions, we have assisted businesses just like yours with investigating and recovering from internal security incidents. In this blog, we are going to provide you with the steps you should take as soon as you suspect an insider has accessed or misused your organization’s sensitive data.Let’s get started with the most critical step. 1. Stay Calm and Control Your EnvironmentThe first recommendation is to stay calm! Panic can often lead to decisions which could delay or disrupt your response to a data breach. It's easy to feel scared or anxious during such an event; but remaining calm will allow you to react quickly and methodically.Your priority during this time is to control your environment. The most logical first step is to change all your passwords and verify which systems were accessed and when. If willing and possible, plugin the devices or user accounts from your network using your secured passwords. You should also consider locking down any files or systems that hold sensitive information, even if you are unsure if they had been accessed.You are not necessarily "fixing" things at this stage; you are trying to manage the circumstance. The more quickly you can begin containment, the less damage likely to be done. 2. Understand What HappenedOnce your systems are secured, the next step is to figure out what exactly happened. This is known as identifying the breach. It’s important because the way you respond will depend heavily on the kind of data involved, who accessed it, and how much damage may have been done.Start by looking at unusual activity. Has any sensitive data been moved or downloaded unexpectedly? Are there any strange logins at odd times? Were any files changed without explanation? Try to gather as much detail as possible about when the issue may have started and what may have been involved.If you suspect an insider- such as an employee, contractor, or someone else with authorized access—make a list of people who had the ability to view or handle the data in question. Think carefully, but don’t jump to conclusions yet. Right now, the goal is to understand the scope of the problem. 3. Kick start a Professional InvestigationOnce you've formed a definite belief of what has occurred it is time to carry out a more thorough investigation. This portion is expressly crucial and can be very difficult to do by yourself - especially without having internal cybersecurity or IT expertise.Investigating a data breach is more than just looking through your emails and access logs. Sometimes the evidence can be easy to overlook if you are unsure what to search for and if this event is subject to litigation or regulator reports, you'll want real evidence and documentation.For these reasons, we strongly advise engaging professionals. Proaxis Solutions has over 7 years’ experience with this type of investigation. Our digital forensics team utilizes digital forensics tool sets and processes that can assist in insights needed to determine how did the breach happen, who was involved, and what type of data was involved in the incident. We ensure all evidence is secured and handled in a manner that would comply with legal or regulator settings if a need arose.Having a professional investigation in place will save time, reduce stress, and ensure that there are no overlooked details.4. Alert the Right PeopleAfter you have gathered the relevant details and assessed if a breach has indeed occurred, you will need to alert the appropriate people. This could be one of the most important steps, as your approach can affect how your organization will be viewed in the middle of the incident and even after.First alert your internal team members, specifically leadership, IT, HR, and legal. Make sure everyone knows what happened and what your plan will be moving forward. If you and your leadership team can all agree on the actions you will take to respond, you can spend less time and energy managing confusion and inconsistencies internally.If you determine you need to notify customers or clients that may be affected, especially if their data was involved, you should be transparent and regards your disclosure. Let them know what happened, how you are responding, and what you are doing to ensure a similar issue does not happen again. Consider offering input, such as credit monitoring or account fraud protection, if applicable. Depending on your location, and the kind of data accessed, there may be legally required notifications for law enforcement or regulatory agencies, such as the FTC, local data protection authorities, or any regulators stipulated by your industry. Trust is built with quick but responsible communication. Delays or vagueness cause people to think something bigger is going on. 5. Learn and Improve Your SecurityOnce you've put out the immediate fire, the next step is just as important - making sure it doesn't happen again. Every breach is an opportunity to learn and make sure your systems are more secure. Start by reviewing your existing data security policies. Are there any gaps in how data is stored, accessed, or shared? Did employees have more access than they needed? Did someone fail to follow established procedures?Look for areas to enhance. You might look to increase the strength of your password policies, add two-factor authentication, or otherwise limit access to certain files or tools. It is also ideal time to evaluate employee training. Many insider breaches happen not out of ill will but because someone made a series of careless errors.Some companies choose to conduct regular security audits or install monitoring tools to watch for unusual or suspicious behaviour. Monitoring tools could provide early warning if something unexpected had too happened in the future.The aim here is not only to deal with the lapse but to make a more secure environment going forward. Your company deserves that level of assurance. Why It’s Important to Act FastWhen you suspect an insider data breach, time is your most precious commodity. The longer time passes, the more data may be exposed, and the more harm may be done to your organization’s reputation. That is why acting fast is so important—and getting a professional to assist you as needed. At Proaxis Solutions, we understand the urgency of these matters.
