Pre-bind cyber risk assessment
Scan a prospective insured's external attack surface before binding cover. Identify unpatched software, exposed admin panels, open RDP ports, and known CVEs affecting their public infrastructure. Get objective risk data instead of relying solely on self-reported questionnaires.
Run a security scan on the external perimeter of globalmanufacturing.com before we bind their $5M cyber policy.
Scan complete. Found 3 high-severity issues: RDP exposed on port 3389, Apache version 2.4.49 (CVE-2021-41773), and an admin panel reachable without MFA. Recommend requiring remediation of all three before binding.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the security scanner on a prospect without their permission?
The Security Scanner performs passive reconnaissance on publicly accessible infrastructure — the same information a threat actor could gather. For active penetration testing, always obtain written authorization from the domain owner before running tests.
How current is the CVE vulnerability database?
The Vulnerability Database pulls from NVD, MITRE, and vendor advisories and is updated continuously. Newly published CVEs typically appear within hours of disclosure, including CVSS scores, affected versions, and patch availability.
Can these tools replace a formal cybersecurity audit?
These tools provide objective external risk indicators that complement questionnaires and broker submissions. They do not replace a formal penetration test or security audit by a qualified assessor, which may still be required for large accounts or certain policy conditions.
What information does the DNS lookup tool reveal about security posture?
DNS & Domain checks SPF, DKIM, DMARC configurations, SSL certificate validity and expiry, domain reputation against blocklists, and WHOIS registration data. Missing email authentication records are a strong predictor of phishing-related claims.
How do I research accumulation risk across my portfolio for a specific CVE?
Use Vulnerability Database to understand which software versions are affected, then cross-reference against self-reported technology stacks in your policy data. Deep Research can supplement with reports on which industries are being actively targeted for that specific vulnerability.
