Endurance Engages NetDiligence® for Enhanced Assessments
Insurer Selects NetDiligence and SecurityScorecard for Policyholders
PHILADELPHIA, April 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- NetDiligence®, a leading cyber risk assessment and data breach services company, announced today that Endurance has engaged NetDiligence to provide enhanced cyber risk assessment and data analytic services, including security posture scoring from SecurityScorecard, Inc., a NetDiligence strategic alliance partner.
NetDiligence and Security Scorecard announced their strategic partnership in January 2015, with the aim of helping cyber liability insurers better gauge the security posture of policyholders and applicants for coverage. Under terms of the agreement, NetDiligence, a long-time leader in enterprise-wide cyber risk assessments, offers SecurityScorecard's risk grading service as part of its QuietAudit® assessment services.
"We see value in the enhanced cyber risk assessment services provided by NetDiligence and SecurityScorecard because they give our underwriters and clients deeper insight into vulnerabilities in their data security practices that could provide openings for hackers," said Brad Gow, senior vice president of Endurance Insurance. "These expanded cyber risk assessment services not only provide objective measurements of our clients' potential risk factors, but also indicators of trends and emerging risks."
"We're delighted that Endurance selected NetDiligence's expanded QuietAudit assessment services, specifically SecurityScorecard's risk grading service, to help their clients identify and mitigate their cyber risk," said Mark Greisiger, NetDiligence's president. "It's gratifying that Endurance sees the same bottom-line benefits—for both client and insurer—to mitigating cyber risk before the bad event happens."
