The Cyber Risk Partnership Gives P&C Insurers the Ability to Immediately Assess and Accurately Underwrite Cyber Insurance
FICO, a global analytics leader, announced that it has partnered with Duck Creek Technologies. The partnership offers a seamless integration of the FICO Cyber Risk Score with P&C insurers policy quoting and underwriting workflows within the Duck Creek platform. The partnership enables access to the industry’s most accurate cyber risk score, providing visibility into an organization’s enterprise security behaviors for underwriting efforts, while helping to drive better business decisions.
The FICO® Cyber Risk Score is an empirical score that relies on a comprehensive and diverse set of cybersecurity data signals to quickly determine the risk profile of any organization. These insights outline key risk indicators, including the health of IT systems, network infrastructure, and software and services. This information is used to fine-tune the machine learning model that produces a risk score that forecasts the likelihood of a future breach event for a given company or its associated third-party vendors.

We are truly excited to partner with Duck Creek Technologies to give P&C insurers a more streamlined and accurate underwriting workflow.”

“Cyber security is a threat to businesses of all sizes, and carriers are much more prepared to address it properly with an empirically-derived benchmark for cyber risk, rather than an opinion-based ranking,” said Elizabeth Del Ferro, vice president, partner GTM at Duck Creek Technologies. “With access to this data available directly through the Duck Creek platform, our customers’ underwriting decisions can be made faster and with greater confidence. The FICO Cyber Risk Score is a very valuable tool for insurers, and Duck Creek is glad to welcome FICO into our rapidly-growing partner ecosystem.”
