SecondSight and Optiv Announce New Partnership to Redefine Cybersecurity and Cyber Insurance Integration

BLOOMINGTON (Ind.)-(BUSINESS WIRE).-SecondSight has announced a strategic alliance with Optiv. Optiv is the leading global provider of cybersecurity solutions. This collaboration marks a departure from the traditional approach, integrating Optiv’s cybersecurity services seamlessly into the SecondSight vertical AI platform via a state-of the-art recommendation system, tailored for companies, brokers and underwriters. This integration offers businesses personalized advice on how to strengthen their cybersecurity defenses in order to secure optimal insurance coverage.

SecondSight’s recommendation algorithm, which leverages Optiv’s extensive cyber expertise, provides customized guidance that is aligned to each business’s individual risk profile. This strategy streamlines cybersecurity and insurance for companies, enabling them to take proactive measures against cyber threats. This direct and streamlined method represents a major departure from the segmented, often reactive risk management approaches of the past. It paves the way for an efficient and comprehensive path to manage and reduce cyber risks.

Reuben Vandeventer (CEO of SecondSight) highlighted the innovative nature of the partnership. “Teaming up Optiv dramatically improves our capabilities because we can integrate their unmatched cybersecurity experience directly into our user’s experience. This integration not only simplifies the process of strengthening cyber security for businesses, but also facilitates timely and precise responses to each business’s unique needs throughout their journey in insurance. Vandeventer stated that this partnership would disrupt the conventional narrative of incident response.

SecondSight, as the market maker in the insurance industry, is changing how insurers predict and manage emerging risk within their portfolios. Our Vertical AI system transforms what would have been considered comprehensive solutions within traditional contexts into components in our larger ecosystem. Insurance companies can now address incidents with unprecedented efficiency and proactively pinpoint potential threats. Our approach to the cyber-threat landscape combines these components into one cohesive strategy that provides actionable insights and instant access to remediation services.

Dara Gibson, from Optiv, commented on the strategic implications of the collaboration. “Our partnership with SecondSight is a significant step for Optiv. By embedding SecondSight’s platform with our cybersecurity solutions, we are doing more than enhancing security postures. We’re aligning our services strategically with a key growth domain. This collaboration demonstrates our commitment to evolve with the insurance industry, providing businesses with premier cybersecurity and risk management support. It is a proactive step in fostering a safer operational framework for businesses.”
