NEW YORK (PRWEB)

Kalepa, the pioneering commercial insurance underwriting software company combining Artificial and Human Intelligence, announced today that it has been named a Cool Vendor by Gartner, Inc. The 2020 report titled Cool Vendors in Insurance recognizes interesting, new and innovative vendors, products and services in the insurance market. Kalepa is one of five companies recognized by Gartner in the report.

According to the report from Gartner, “The commercial P&C insurance market has not transformed core business processes, such as underwriting, believing they were overly complex and that technology was not the answer. While a few vendors have launched offerings to improve workflow and analytics for P&C underwriters, these solutions failed to support both automated and human-based underwriting decision making and apply learning principles.”

“I am very proud of the Kalepa team for being recognized by Gartner, the world’s leading research and advisory company,” said Paul Monasterio, Co-Founder & CEO of Kalepa. “We are committed to delivering on the promise of AI to power commercial insurers in their pursuit of a fast-growing, profitable book. Kalepa’s team works tirelessly to serve our underwriter users who rely on Kalepa’s Underwriting Copilot to enhance their productivity and make increasingly informed risk selection decisions. Furthermore, we are pursuing a bold vision of enabling underwriters to 10X their performance and financial impact.”

“I congratulate Kalepa on being named a 2020 Cool Vendor by Gartner”, commented Mario Vitale, venerable insurance industry leader and former CEO of Aspen Insurance Group, Zurich Global Corporate and Willis North America. “In my opinion, Kalepa is uniquely positioned to transform the way commercial policies are underwritten, combining underwriter expertise with the power of big data and cutting-edge technology. Kalepa has done a terrific job relentlessly focusing on delivering measurable value for insurers and helping their customers win.” Paul Monasterio added: “we are thankful to Mario for his decades of leadership and vision in our industry and we are honored that he has agreed to join us in this mission as a member of Kalepa’s Advisory Board”.

ORLANDO, Fla. and ALEXANDRIA, Va. (PRWEB)

Nisos and Team Cymru today announced that they have partnered to combine Nisos’ Managed Intelligence services with Team Cymru’s unparalleled data. Team Cymru collects, processes and aggregates global network traffic and 50+ other types of data to deliver Pure Signal(TM) via its proprietary software, the Augury(TM) platform.

As attackers continue to find ways to bypass traditional defenses, security teams have found the need to extend their reach beyond their own networks to the global Internet to collect intelligence that informs both incident response and proactive threat hunting. Yet many organizations lack the tools and analytic expertise to externally investigate and monitor malicious infrastructures. The partnership with Nisos allows organizations lacking analyst resources to take advantage of Team Cymru’s unique Internet-wide visibility, and it provides quick start training for internal analyst teams new to using the Augury platform.

Team Cymru’s Augury platform enables network forensics at Internet scale, which allows security teams to investigate and monitor external threats with a level of clarity similar to what they would expect from their internal network telemetry. Like the advanced teams in the Fortune 500 that Team Cymru counts as satisfied customers, Nisos operators leverage the platform to track back attacker command and control infrastructure, often through VPNs, proxies, and other anonymization tactics. This unfiltered ground truth, called Pure Signal, enables investigations and actor tracking that would not be possible without it.

Nisos’ Managed Intelligence services enable security teams to control a world-class intelligence capability tailored to fill their specific knowledge and collection gaps. From helping teams baseline the threats they face to attributing APT-level attackers, Nisos pairs human analytic and technical expertise with data and technology to provide actionable intelligence, enabling security teams to maximize their existing capabilities.

“Augury is an indispensable tool in our kit,” said Nisos President & Co-founder, Justin Zeefe. “The clarity that Team Cymru’s data provides is unlike any other tool designed to illuminate the external threat environment, and their global coverage allows us to find answers to tough questions wherever an investigation takes us.”

“Nisos has the strongest team of operators we’ve come across,” noted Team Cymru CEO, Rabbi Rob Thomas. “Their backgrounds and organizational expertise afford them the collective experience needed to not only make the most of the Augury platform, but to identify and monitor attackers via a variety of methods.”

In addition to partnering to help companies expand their capabilities, Nisos and Team Cymru will also partner on industry education, which is core to both companies’ missions. The first such event, “A Look at APT 34 and Rogue Cobalt Strike Servers: Using Augury to Map, Monitor and Take Action against APT Groups,” will take place on July 30, 2020 at 2:00 pm EDT.

About Nisos

Nisos is the global leader in managed intelligence. Nisos services enable clients to control a world class intelligence capability, fusing data with human analysis to deliver actionable insights tailored to their needs. For more information visit: http://www.nisos.com

About Team Cymru

Since 2005, Team Cymru’s mission has been to save and improve lives by working with public and private sector entities to discover, track and take down threat actors and criminals around the globe. We do this by delivering comprehensive visibility into global cyber threat activity. Team Cymru collects, processes and aggregates global network traffic and 50+ other types of data to give our clients Pure Signal™. This provides the broadest visibility into malicious activity across the Internet. The most advanced cybersecurity teams and investigators around the world rely on our solutions to uncover the who, what, when, where and why of malicious behavior. They also leverage this global visibility to identify, map, and block cyber threat infrastructures before attacks even reach their enterprises’ doorsteps. Our data is incomparable — Pure Signal™ — and our partners and clients use it to make the world a safer place. For more information visit: https://team-cymru.com/

The website provides helpful information about steps to take after an accident, common insurance tactics, guidance on how to maximize insurance claims, and more. The Insurance Justice Center was created to assist anyone experiencing difficulties recovering on their insurance claim.

“Our number one goal in creating this website is to provide a reliable space for anyone who has been in an accident,” said Kirk Presley. “We know how difficult and overwhelming it can be to work with and often fight the insurance companies. We want to help provide information so that anyone can make confident, informed decisions regarding their accident insurance, and receive a full recovery after a crash.”
