Transfer · Problem-solving Use-Case

Spot poor cyber-physical risks before you bind.

Tell good industrial risks from poor ones before you bind. Every submission gets an OT-specific analysis.

Your first result is a DeRISK™ UWA short report on one submission. It asks the applicant nothing, and the underwriter makes the call.

What you face

Two industrial risks look alike on paper and carry very different losses.

The form gets the same answers from a well-run plant and a poorly run one. The difference is in the OT evidence.

Industrial risks claim more often.In one insurer’s claims, manufacturers made ransomware claims 2.2 times as often as the average for all industries.1At-Bay, InsurSec Report 2026

A wrong answer can void cover.A US insurer had a manufacturer’s cyber policy voided. The application had misstated how the firm used multi-factor authentication.2,3Travelers v. International Control Services, US District Court, 2022
76%
OT skills are scarce.In an EU survey, 76% of organisations had difficulty attracting cybersecurity professionals. A third named OT and ICS security among the skills they need most.4ENISA, NIS Investments 2025
Questionnaires were written for IT.Most cyber questionnaires ask little about OT, so the controls that set an industrial loss go unasked or unchecked.
Similar answers, different losses.Two applicants can answer the same way and carry very different losses. One plant can be stopped from the business network; the other cannot.
Without OT expertise, risks get averaged.Good risks get priced like poor ones, and poor ones slip through at the same rate.
How DeRISK solves it

From the submission to a decision you can defend.

DeRISK reads the OT evidence in the whole submission, scores it and flags what matters. The underwriter decides.

Read the OT evidence

The questionnaire and every document attached are read together, with IT and OT shown separately and a confidence score for each. Nothing is asked of the applicant.

Confidence

Example submission. IT and OT confidence, scored separately.

Flag the critical concerns

OT controls are scored and the critical concerns flagged, each with a recommended fix and a deadline. Every finding shows where it came from in the submission, so the file stands up at referral.

Evidence trail

Example submission. One finding, with its source and the trail behind it.

Compare, then decide

See the risk against sector peers, then decline, bind with conditions, or bind. Conditions precedent are written in market terms, each with a deadline.

Against sector peers

Example submission. Key controls against sector peers, by percentile.

What you get

Two exhibits from the sample Underwriting Verdict report. One lists the three critical recommendations. The other shows how the premium changes once the conditions are met.

Underwriting Verdict: three critical recommendations

Underwriting Verdict: recommended premium adjustment

A decision you can defend

A human reviews every file

The underwriter decides. Nothing binds without a person.

Every finding traced

A full audit trail and attribution statement.
