Commercial re/insurance software provider AdvantageGo has forged a strategic alliance with FortifyData, which specialises in providing cyber risk management solutions. The deal will see users of AdvantageGo’s Underwriting Workbench get access to cyber vulnerability and security-rating data from FortifyData.

Ian Summers, global business leader at AdvantageGo, said: “It’s great news to announce this latest AdvantageGo Ecosystem partnership with FortifyData. Their threat analysis and mitigations insight provides a strong rationale to support the cyber underwriter’s risk and pricing decision-making process.”

Victor Gamra, CEO of FortifyData, added: “It’s exciting to be at the forefront with this shift in the insurance industry, where insurance providers are looking for more thorough and complete assessment data to help with better underwriting.”
