Our take
For businesses operating today, cyber insurance is as fundamental as property insurance. However, companies may not be as educated in digital risk-assessment and can end up paying large insurance costs as a result. Resilience integrates risk engineering with their cyber-insurance offerings, allowing middle-market companies to build cyber resilience and access lower cost insurance options.
Traditionally, insurers assess the information security of a company and then write up their coverage, but Resilience instead works proactively to help mitigate problems where it finds them, before the policy is agreed. By doing so, it aligns itself with the interests of the businesses it serves and can form stronger insurer-customer relationships – which are maintained because Resilience offers access to security services for the whole length of the policy.
Resilience has seen significant investment through the years, including from notable investors in the insurance space, demonstrating that their approach is held in high regard. With this, it has invested in accelerating global expansion and scaling the adoption of the "Resilience Solution", its holistic cyber risk platform.
