What Our Members are Saying

When we had a cyber breach, OSBIE was our first call. They quickly secured legal counsel for us and then OSBIE’s elite provider of cyber security – Kroll – stepped in. They isolated the threat and assisted in restoring services. The expert response took the pressure away from a very loaded and difficult situation.

- Justin Pino, Superintendent of Business, Huron-Superior Catholic District School Board

OSBIE consistently demonstrates a high level of professionalism. Responses to inquiries are quick and thorough. What sets OSBIE apart is that they make us feel valued and never burdensome. It’s an exceptional level of customer service that’s truly appreciated.

- Janna Lagaev, Comptroller, Accounting/Financial Services, York Region District School Board

We experienced an $8M property loss at a remote northern high school. OSBIE sent in major loss experts to handle the investigation. When an on-site meeting was scheduled and the road was closed, they chartered a helicopter to get to the remote site. That spoke volumes as to the importance of our claim. Working with OSBIE is a true partnership.
