# What proof of network monitoring can we show an insurer?

Evidence that the monitoring exists, covers what you say, and is acted on. Insurers rarely ask for proof at application time but may ask at renewal, during an audit or after a claim, so collect it as you go. Useful items are a short description of what is monitored and how, with a network diagram marking the watched segments; the name of the person or provider who reviews alerts and the agreed response times; a few recent alerts with what was done about them; and a periodic summary report. Keep these with your policy documents and update them when the network changes. NetSenX can supply part of this: the network map with the devices seen on each monitored segment, on every plan; PDF reports from the Starter plan; and an audit log of actions and changes in the account, on every plan. It does not certify your monitoring, and whether an item is accepted is the insurer’s decision.

General information, not legal advice. National laws can add to the EU texts quoted here, for example deadlines, forms or reporting channels: check your own country's rules.
