S1E34 | Your Cyber Policy Won’t Save You If Your Compliance Evidence Is Wrong feat. Advisor Armor
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most RIAs believe they’re “covered” because they have cyber insurance and written compliance policies.
That assumption is exactly what gets firms burned during an SEC exam or after a cyber incident.
In this episode of the Advisor’s Edge Podcast, we sit down with Mark Brown, Founder of Advisor Armor, and Anthony Patti, President of Advisor Armor, to break down the most dangerous gap we see in RIA firms today:
👉 When your written policies say controls exist…
👉 But your endpoints prove they don’t.
That mismatch is a regulatory landmine.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
✅ Why cybersecurity, compliance evidence, and insurance are three different things
✅ The #1 compliance mistake RIAs make with written policies
✅ How endpoint monitoring exposes gaps auditors care about most
✅ Why “people risk” is still the biggest cyber threat for firms under 100 employees
✅ How cyber claims actually play out when something goes wrong
✅ What RIAs should know about AI tools, data usage, and hidden exposure
This conversation also marks a strategic partnership between Box Professional Insurance and Advisor Armor — bringing together cyber controls, compliance evidence, and insurance strategy into one clarity-first risk model for RIAs.
