By Need · Cyber Insurance Readiness

Walk into the renewal with evidence, not estimates.

The cyber questionnaire keeps getting longer, and a single "we think so" can stall the whole application. ArmorPoint runs the controls underwriters weight most, then turns that activity into the proof your broker can put in front of a carrier, so every answer on the form is backed by something you can show.

What carriers ask

Where the questionnaire trips teams up.

Underwriters have converged on a tight set of controls over the last few renewal cycles, and they weight a handful of them heavily. Each one is easy to claim on the form and hard to prove on demand, and the gap between the two is where applications stall.

Challenge 1

MFA is required everywhere, and you have to prove it.

Carriers want multi-factor authentication on email, remote access, and every privileged account, with coverage you can show across a date range. "Required but not actually enforced" is the gap that quietly sinks an application.

Challenge 2

Your backups have to survive the attacker.

Underwriters ask whether backups are isolated from production identity and when you last completed a test restore. A backup nobody has restored, like an IR plan nobody has exercised, counts as a backup that does not exist.

Challenge 3

Someone has to be watching at 2am on a Saturday.

Carriers weight round-the-clock monitoring heavily, because that is exactly when ransomware deploys. Business-hours coverage and a response time you cannot name both read as risk on the application.

The exact questionnaire fields vary by carrier and renewal cycle. These categories reflect the control areas most consistently weighted across major underwriters.

How ArmorPoint fits

Turn the controls you run into the answers you submit.

The controls a carrier asks about, MFA coverage, endpoint detection, round-the-clock monitoring, log retention, and a tested incident response plan, become live telemetry the moment they operate. ArmorPoint maps that activity to the questionnaire categories and assembles the evidence package your broker can put in front of an underwriter, so the renewal is a matter of exporting what you already have rather than reconstructing it under deadline.

A U.S.-based SOC watches the environment around the clock, and an analyst confirms every call. ArmorPoint helps you meet and evidence the controls insurers commonly require. It does not promise a coverage decision or premium outcome, and no security partner can.

How ArmorPoint helps

Run the controls underwriters weight. Produce the proof on demand.

Identity and MFA coverage See exactly where MFA is enforced across email, remote access, and privileged accounts, and where it is not. Answer the MFA questions with a coverage report instead of a best guess. Asset & Identity → 24/7 detection and response Detection spans identity, endpoints, and network, triaged by people every hour of every day. The overnight coverage carriers ask about, with the SLA to document it. Explore MXDR → Logging and retention Logs from identity, endpoint, network, and cloud are collected and held in one place. Produce the logs for any window an underwriter asks you to cover. Explore SIEM → IR plan and readiness evidence A documented incident response lifecycle, with the exercise records carriers expect to see attached. Say "documented and tested," then hand over the records that prove it. Incident response →

The ArmorPoint agent provides detection telemetry and coexists with your EDR; it does not replace it. Triage is AI-assisted and confirmed by an analyst, and ArmorPoint does not auto-remediate.

Mapped to what you answer to

Prove it once, satisfy the rest.

The MFA, logging, monitoring, and IR controls a carrier asks about are the same ones these frameworks expect. ArmorPoint tracks them as live control status, so the evidence you gather for the insurance application does double duty for the audits your organization already answers to.

What it means for your team

When the questionnaire lands, your team is already ready.

CISO / Security lead

Back every control with proof you can show.

MFA coverage, log retention, the monitoring SLA, and IR records all come from live data, captured as you operate rather than reconstructed the week the questionnaire lands on your desk.

IT director

Find the gaps while there is still time to close them.

See which controls are clean and which need work in one operations plane, so remediation is a targeted to-do list weeks out, not a renewal-week scramble across half a dozen siloed tools.

Finance / Risk owner

Take a defensible answer into the boardroom.

A clear, evidence-backed view of where your controls actually stand, so "where do we sit on insurability?" gets a documented answer the board can trust rather than a shrug.
