Commercial insurers are set to gain enhanced visibility into cyber risk at the underwriting stage through a new partnership between Cytora, the digital risk processing platform, and VulnCheck, an exploit intelligence provider, with support from European partner Infinite Insight.
The collaboration brings VulnCheck’s evidence-based, machine-readable intelligence directly into the Cytora platform, enabling insurers to move beyond static submission forms. Instead, underwriting submissions can be automatically enriched with real-time insights into a prospect’s software vulnerabilities and exposure to active exploits.
This integration provides underwriters with immediate visibility into an applicant’s digital footprint, offering a more precise understanding of risk severity, supported by validated exploit intelligence.
For insurers, the key benefit lies in making more informed pricing and capacity decisions based on up-to-date and reliable data. By combining Cytora’s generative AI-driven risk processing capabilities with VulnCheck’s specialised vulnerability intelligence, the partnership focuses on enhancing the enrichment phase of underwriting workflows—reducing decision-making delays and strengthening resilience across cyber portfolios amid an evolving threat landscape.
The agreement also marks another step forward in Cytora’s ambition to build a comprehensive data ecosystem for the insurance industry.
Cytora’s platform leverages generative AI to streamline commercial insurance workflows, enabling brokers, insurers, and reinsurers to digitise risk processing at scale while maintaining high levels of performance, flexibility, and scalability.
VulnCheck specialises in helping security-focused organisations prioritise threats based on attacker activity rather than disclosure timelines, providing intelligence on which vulnerabilities are actively being exploited and when they become critical.
In a separate development, Cytora recently introduced Cytora Autopilot, a solution designed to deliver fully automated, end-to-end risk workflows—moving the industry beyond fragmented digitisation toward seamless, autonomous processes.
