Unit 5 Discussion

Data Integration in Insurance

Data integration in the insurance industry must be a repeatable process that occurs on an ongoing basis. In this discussion, respond to the following:

Discuss how data integration could be used to improve the insurance industry. For example, car insurance could be improved by installing a GPS system on cars so that the company could track the speed that a person drives, miles per day, et cetera, and combine this information with prior history to either increase or decrease premiums.

Discuss the potential privacy implications of such technology and the secondary use that may result from having the information available (for example, lawyers are frequently leveraging GPS and black box technologies to track the movements of individuals as part of a lawsuit).
