Aon launches Cyber Risk Analyzer
Aon launched its Cyber Risk Analyzer, a digital application that allows risk managers to make data-driven, technology-enabled decisions to mitigate cyber risk. The tool is the latest in a series of new offerings, which brings together Aon’s data, tools and analytics professionals to support clients through an evolving risk landscape across sectors.
Aon’s Cyber Risk Analyzer allows Aon’s clients and brokers unique access to:
- Loss Forecasting: Model detailed loss scenarios faster, including privacy or data breach and system failure. The analyzer incorporates Aon’s customized proprietary simulation modeling approach based on internal claims insights, independent research by Aon’s Cyber Risk Consulting team and findings from bespoke cyber modeling engagements.
- Exposure Assessment: Integrate with other proprietary Aon tools, including Aon’s Cyber Quotient Evaluation platform (CyQu), to obtain a holistic assessment of a client’s exposures and security controls.
- Total Cost of Risk (TCOR) Analysis: Overlay loss forecasts with customized insurance options to produce TCOR and Catastrophic TCOR analyses.
These capabilities enable brokers to provide risk managers, chief information security officers and corporate leaders a view of the changing cyber risk environment so they can make informed decisions around risk transfer versus risk retention on their balance sheets. Client risk managers will be empowered to deliver insights on optimal insurance capital allocation decisions to their boards of directors and corporate officers.
The launch of Aon’s Cyber Risk Analyzer follows the 2024 debuts of the firm’s Property Risk Analyzer, Casualty Risk Analyzer, D&O Risk Analyzer and Health Risk Analyzer, that provide exposure visualizations and model potential losses to help Aon’s clients make better informed decisions about their risk and insurance options.
“As cyber threats continue to grow in frequency, sophistication and severity, organizations face an array of complex risks—from ransomware and business interruption to insider threats and data breaches. Compounding these risks are increased litigation pressures, shifting regulatory landscapes, and heightened scrutiny from shareholders. We designed Aon’s Cyber Risk Analyzer to address these challenges and help clients evaluate and quantify their enterprise cyber risk, enabling them to make better decisions.” – Christian Hoffman, global specialty and financial products leader for Aon.
“Aon’s Cyber Risk Analyzer builds on Aon’s commitment to equipping clients with insights that enable data-driven decisions. As the risk landscape becomes increasingly complex, our team delivers actionable analytics that help our clients confidently evaluate risks and insurance options.” – Joe Peiser, global CEO of Commercial Risk Solutions for Aon.
