Douglas R. Jones, senior vice president and principal at Texas-based Roach Howard Smith & Barton, was presented with the Cyber Risk Management Leadership Award 2014-15 at the annual Cyber Risk Management Boot Camp held in Atlanta, Ga., and hosted by INSUREtrust.
The Cyber Risk Management Leadership Award is given to select independent agents that demonstrate expertise in cyber risk management, have addressed their own firm’s cyber risks, and have shown proficiency in delivering cutting-edge cyber risk insurance products to their clients. The recipients have taken appropriate steps to earn the trust of their clients and partners with respect to privacy and security risk management. Read more here.
Jones leads RHSB’s Technology, Life Sciences & Media (TLM) practice. His expertise includes highly targeted insurance products such as directors and officers, errors and omissions, and cyber liability and he is frequently asked to speak on these topics.
Jones has 20 years of risk management experience with all types of technology companies. He works with emerging as well as large international and publicly traded companies. Since technology firms were the earliest adopters of cyber insurance, he is a pioneer in placing this coverage. He has made some of the largest placements and handled some of the most significant and complex claims.
Prior to joining RHSB, Jones served as executive vice president at a Dallas-based insurance agency, where he headed the Technology and Directors & Officers Liability divisions.
