Qualys and Cowbell are expanding their partnership, adding a real-time attack surface intelligence feed from Qualys’ External Attack Surface Management (EASM) to assess cyber risk for cyber insurance purposes.
“Our collaboration with Cowbell brings additional innovation to the cyber insurance industry,” said Pinkesh Shah, chief product officer, Qualys. “By leveraging high accuracy and comprehensive security signals from Qualys EASM, cyber insurance companies like Cowbell can assess the risk posture for any organisation in real time, which could reduce payouts and reward clients by optimising their cyber insurance premiums.”
“Cowbell is at the forefront of cyber insurance innovation, and we’re constantly looking for ways to provide high fidelity and continuous assessment of policyholders’ cybersecurity posture to reduce their risk exposure,” said Rajeev Gupta, co-founder and CPO at Cowbell. “The partnership with Qualys further strengthens our ability to assess risk for insurance purposes and close the insurability gaps for many organisations seeking financial protection through insurance.”
