KYND has launched Portfolio Analytics, a platform designed to help cyber insurers gain visibility into portfolio-wide exposures and track whether insured organisations are addressing emerging cyber risks.
The Launch
KYND, a cyber risk intelligence provider, has launched Portfolio Analytics as insurers face increasing pressure to demonstrate active risk management across their books of business. The platform enables insurers to identify exposure to critical and actively exploited vulnerabilities, while tracking how long those risks remain unresolved.
Embedded within KYND's platform, Portfolio Analytics enables insurers to identify their highest-risk exposures and emerging areas of concern, providing insight into both an organisation's technical exposure and its approach to cyber risk remediation.
Market Context
According to Chubb's 2026 Cyber Claims Report, 65% of large companies now rank third-party and supply-chain vulnerabilities as their biggest cyber challenge, increasing from 54% a year earlier. KYND said cyber insurers have traditionally focused on understanding where risks exist across portfolios, but the changing threat landscape requires greater visibility into how those risks are evolving over time.
The launch follows growing industry concerns around systemic cyber events, with the 2025 Jaguar Land Rover cyber incident highlighting the potential economic impact of attacks affecting large interconnected networks. The incident was estimated to have affected more than 5,000 UK organisations and cost the economy £1.9 billion.
Leadership Perspective
"Growing expectations around active portfolio management present a particular challenge for cyber insurers, given the speed at which cyber risks can emerge and spread across interconnected organisations, suppliers and technology providers. For much of the last decade, cyber insurers have focused on understanding where risk exists across their portfolios, but the threat landscape has evolved," said Andy Thomas, founder and CEO of KYND.
"In an environment where a newly exploited vulnerability can turn into loss in minutes and a single event can create losses across multiple insured organisations, a point-in-time view of risk is no longer enough.
"Increasingly, insurers need to understand not only where exposure exists, but whether it is being reduced.
"Insurers need better ways to understand how risk is changing across their portfolios over time. Access to that insight can help them identify concentrations of risk earlier, engage more effectively with insureds and make better-informed decisions about portfolio exposure," he said.
Industry Significance
The launch reflects a shift in cyber underwriting from static, point-in-time risk assessment towards continuous monitoring of how exposures change across a book. As systemic events and supply-chain vulnerabilities raise the prospect of correlated losses across many insureds at once, tools that track remediation over time address a growing need for cyber insurers to manage accumulation risk more actively.
