Update Your Home and Business Insurance To 3.0

An Insurance Update
Advancement in technology minimizes your risk and lowers your cost of insurance.  Your business insurance is part of a new wave of technology that is taking the country by storm.  The insurance industry calls this the “Internet of Things” (loT).  There are many good articles relating to this issue and we have provided a few links: The Internet of Things: Groundbreaking Tech with Security Risks and Insurance 2.0 is a Game Changer.

The ways in which technology helps your business can be defined by one word, “Connectivity.”  We are all connected in so many ways now, and this can help reduce your risk.  “For example, the sensors in smartphones and smartwatch devices are already helping healthcare providers to diagnose illnesses and monitor wellbeing.  Black box telematics in cars can assist insurers in informing policyholders how safe their driving is and helping shape their insurance rates.”  (www.welivesecurity.com, by Editor.

Ways in Which loT Helps You
Smart devices are connecting your homes in dozens of ways, including home security, heating, lights, and appliances.  These allow you to manage your home from anywhere, and detect a fire or other hazard.

Automated claims systems are able to help your business analyze employee injuries, which leads to the development of advanced safety programs.

Using smart vehicles allows employers to monitor commercial drivers, which can lead to safer drivers.
