Sompo Japan, SOMPO Risk Management and TrendAI will begin providing vulnerability assessments using ASM (Attack Surface Management) to cyber insurance policyholders from 1 December. Basic assessments will also be available to companies without an insurance policy.
As cyberattacks become increasingly sophisticated, the companies will formally launch a service that uses ASM functionality to detect and monitor vulnerabilities in companies’ publicly exposed IT assets from an external perspective. The service will be jointly provided by Sompo Japan, SOMPO Risk Management and TrendAI, using TrendAI’s ASM functionality. Policyholders will be able to view assessment results through a dashboard and access information on remediation measures for identified risks, as well as a support desk. Companies without an insurance policy can also receive a basic assessment once and consider taking out insurance.
Going forward, the companies aim to reduce cyber risk, improve customer satisfaction and enhance insurance underwriting. TrendAI will use more than 40 years of security expertise to support measures addressing security challenges in the AI era. Sompo Japan and TrendAI will strengthen companies’ security postures by providing visibility into externally exposed assets and using dynamic risk data.
