What is the Insurance Readiness Score based on?
It is a proprietary blend of commercially available insurance modeling, carrier underwriting experience, and internal maturity scoring across 13 core controls. The score maps to the controls carriers actually evaluate during renewal.
Does this replace the carrier's questionnaire?
No. The Insurance Readiness Report gives you and your broker an evidence-backed view of your posture that you can bring into the carrier conversation. Carriers still make the final underwriting decision.
How often does the score change?
It updates whenever the underlying data changes. A new EDR deployment, a documented IR plan, a backup policy. All get reflected in the score. You can recompute on demand before a renewal.
Which controls does it evaluate?
MFA, EDR, Backup & Recovery, Incident Response Plan, Email Security, Privileged Access, SIEM/Log Management, Vulnerability Management, Security Awareness Training, Encryption, Network Segmentation, Third-Party Risk, and AI Governance & Risk.
