Cytora has partnered with VulnCheck, in collaboration with European partner Infinite Insight, to integrate real-time vulnerability intelligence into insurance underwriting workflows.
The integration brings VulnCheck’s machine-consumable exploit and vulnerability data directly into the Cytora platform, enabling commercial insurers to enrich submissions with detailed insights into a prospective insured’s cybersecurity exposure at the point of underwriting.
By embedding this intelligence within its digitised workflow, Cytora allows underwriters to move beyond static application forms and access dynamic, continuously updated data on software vulnerabilities and exploit activity associated with an applicant’s digital footprint.
The capability is designed to support more precise cyber risk evaluation by helping insurers validate exposure severity, quantify potential threats, and improve pricing and capacity decisions using more granular intelligence.
The integration also streamlines the enrichment phase of underwriting workflows, reducing decision latency and improving consistency in cyber risk selection across portfolios.
Juan de Castro said: “Cyber risk is one of the most dynamic and challenging lines of business to underwrite. Our partnership with VulnCheck brings a sophisticated layer of vulnerability intelligence directly into the risk processing workflow. This enables our clients to move beyond basic questionnaires and access actionable intelligence that drives smarter, faster, and more resilient cyber underwriting decisions.”
Thomas Bain added: “Effective cyber risk assessment requires more than vulnerability counts. It demands insights into which vulnerabilities are weaponized in the wild. By integrating VulnCheck’s intelligence into Cytora’s platform, insurers get the deepest context on threat activity, enabling more accurate risk differentiation and underwriting confidence.”
The collaboration forms part of Cytora’s broader strategy to build a data-driven insurance ecosystem, supporting automated risk selection and improved decision-making across commercial and specialty lines.
