Intangic MGA, cyber insurance managing general agent (MGA), has launched a new parametric cyber insurance cover in the UK.
Called CyFi, the cyber insurance solution was developed in partnership with AXA XL, the property and casualty and speciality risk division of AXA.

The new policy, which is underwritten by AXA XL Insurance Company UK, will offer public corporations with headquarters in the UK cover of up to $15m for cyber incidents.
CyFi’s parametric triggers include the level of malicious activity and the loss in value. When triggered, claims are paid to the business.
Intangic CEO and founder Ryan Dodd said: “Our approach assesses cyber as a high-frequency risk. By accepting cyber attacks as ‘constant’, we can measure a link between how these attacks are managed and the financial impact they have on corporate operations.
“Our parametric triggers make this link visible, enabling fast recovery from covered material breaches and giving corporations a new type of insurance risk transfer. By doing this, we have converted cyber risk to a language the board understands.”
