What Factors Influence Car Insurance Costs The Most

Leave a comment


News Image

“Insurance companies analyze multiple factors when they calculate rates. It’s all about risk and insurance companies what to know if they will provide coverage to a safe driver or not”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Auto insurance is a risk-based business. Providing insurance to people more likely to make a claim is a sure way to financial bankruptcy. This is why insurance companies rely heavily on statistics, carefully analyze a series of factors, and rate persons using insurability scores. Find out the top influential factors and get free car insurance quotes online from https://compare-autoinsurance.org.

  • ZIP code. Besides the state’s laws and the geo-economic profile of a region, the risk profile is determined on the neighborhood level. When we talk about larger cities or metropolitan areas, certain neighborhoods are more dangerous than others. High criminality and ongoing gang wars, riots and vandalism will surely affect the rates. Furthermore, the cost of repairing a car in a certain area or road conditions and population density will also count in.

  • Driving record. Is a top influential factor and companies will thoroughly analyze it before issuing any policy. The insurance companies will analyze both the number of accidents involving a person and his number of claims in recent years.

  • Vehicle details. The model of the car is another crucial factor and drivers must provide correct data and show papers when asked. Insurance companies will analyze statistics to check the accident frequency for that particular model, car theft frequency, and if there are any known problems with it. Medium-sized family cars are cheaper to insure and are considered safer. Sports cars or customized cars are pricier to insure. The safety rating is also an important factor.

  • Coverage lapses. Having insurance gaps is heavily penalized by all insurers. A new client that has coverage gaps is not considered trustworthy and will be charged more. Before changing to a new company, make sure to synchronize the start of the new policy with the end of the current one.

  • Credit score. Persons with a poor credit score are seen as unreliable and are expected not to manage premium payments well. This is the main reason why persons with poor FICO score are considered high-risk.

Compare-autoinsurance.org is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes. This website is unique because it does not simply stick to one kind of insurance provider, but brings the clients the best deals from many different online insurance carriers.

Leave a comment


Employees of CQ fluency rejoice at growing accolades for their hard work

We are honored to receive recognition from Inc. 5000, and the NMSDC and want to be sure that our ‘purpose’ receives acknowledgement, not just our growth.


HACKENSACK, N.J. (PRWEB)

High quality, culturally relevant language access isn’t always readily available for the 25 million+ people in the United States who are LEP (Limited English Proficient) patients. For those that do obtain access, the standards set by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) are proposed to further weaken. Deeper connections require a holistic approach to language that includes adapting for tone, images, colors, symbols, religion, politics, gender, diets, humor level, sequence of information, acronyms, untranslatable puns, idioms and medical terms that don’t exist in the target language.

While there are thousands of language service providers worldwide, CQ fluency’s unique proprietary processes and strong commitment to diversity and inclusion (D&I) are making the company stand out and win accolades. For the seventh consecutive year, CQ fluency, whose mission is “improving lives,” is recognized on the Inc. 5000 “Fastest Growing Companies” list. This announcement comes on the heels of recently being named a Corporate Plus member by the National Minority Supplier Development Council.

All these factors contribute to CQ fluency’s ability to help the world’s largest health and life science organizations engage the hearts and minds of their often-misunderstood diverse patients.

Elisabete Miranda, President & CEO of CQ fluency shared, “We are honored to receive recognition from Inc. 5000, and the NMSDC and want to be sure that our ‘purpose’ receives acknowledgement, not just our growth.” Elisabete added, “As a Minority and Woman owned Business Enterprise (MWBE), diversity isn’t simply a company policy – diverse is what we are, and inclusive work naturally derives from that. For over 20 years we have worked towards improving the lives of underserved populations through communication, with a goal to contribute to the fight toward inclusive health equity for all.”

D&I strategies are valuable ingredients in overcoming adversity. Through the unprecedented events of 2020, CQ fluency’s well-known agility and flexibility was evident through their commitment and responsiveness in the face of adversity. To continue to serve their clients in a more expansive and immediate way in the face of COVID-19 by transitioning to a full-remote team overnight, implementing a 24/7 task force for critical translation needs, waiving rush fees, maintaining a full staff with no lay-offs or furloughs and hiring additional staff.

LogRhythm Announces Customer Satisfaction Score Increase of 50% and the Addition of New Product and Human Resources Executives During the First Half of 2020

Leave a comment


News Image


BOULDER, Colo. (PRWEB)

LogRhythm, the company powering today’s security operations centers (SOCs), today announced the firm experienced a 50 percent increase in its Net Promoter Score (NPS) and external customer review scores in the first half of 2020. The customer satisfaction increases are largely attributed to the company’s COVID-19 customer response, additional enhancements to the LogRhythm NextGen SIEM Platform, new service offerings, and the expansion of MSSP partnerships. The company also announced the addition of two new members to the leadership team, chief product officer Rusty Carter and vice president of human resources Melissa Garza.

LogRhythm, the industry’s largest standalone security-focused vendor, recently launched LogRhythm 7.5 and Open Collector in July 2020, enabling customers to detect and mitigate threats faster than ever with an experience designed for search speed, error elimination, data correlation visualization, and more. The Urban Development Authority shared that after aligning their processes with the LogRhythm NextGen SIEM Platform, their team was able to cut down on mean time to detect and response times from between 48 and 72 hours to just under 30 minutes.

LogRhythm 7.5 provides enhanced analyst workflow experiences and visibility, while Open Collector simplifies the process of onboarding cloud data sources for more holistic monitoring. This is especially significant given the many challenges security teams face with the sudden shift to a remote workforce.

“Throughout 2020, we’ve made it a priority to be a teammate to our customers, and as a result, they’ve been able to accelerate and enhance their security programs — even under extraordinary circumstances,” said Mark Logan, CEO of LogRhythm. “Despite the uncertainty that remains due to the global health crisis, LogRhythm will continue responding to the situation by listening to the needs of our customers, driving new security-focused solutions, and evolving to ensure they are protected from cybercriminals.”

To further extend customer training, LogRhythm launched its Training Services Authorized program, which certifies partners to offer the same training services to customers that LogRhythm has long provided. Now, customers can work with both LogRhythm and authorized partners to implement a variety of training options to fit learning styles, schedules, and budgets. Training services also cater specifically to distinct roles on the security team — including the administrator and analyst roles — to ensure the entire SOC can quickly and efficiently learn to use the LogRhythm Platform to accomplish their specific goals. This program enables partners to become a one-stop shop for customers by providing deployment, security services, and training. Authorized partners that have already rolled out their own LogRhythm training programs include Optiv and Novacoast.

LogRhythm also added two new executives to the leadership team to enhance the organization’s ability to deliver on its products and company culture. These new executives are:

Rusty Carter, Chief Product Officer

Carter brings over 21 years of product leadership, software development, and security industry experience to the company. Prior to joining LogRhythm, Carter served as vice president of product management for Arxan Technologies, an application security and data protection company, where he led the product management and strategy functions. Along with this experience, Carter also brings a deep knowledge of machine learning, interface design, and UX — on which he holds several patents. At LogRhythm, he is responsible for driving the product vision and evolving the NextGen SIEM Platform.

Melissa Garza, Vice President of Human Resources

With over 20 years of HR experience, Garza has led human resources teams at various Fortune 200 and 500 companies in diverse businesses. Prior to joining LogRhythm, Garza was the vice president of human resources at SolarWinds, an IT management and remote monitoring software company. Garza will lead LogRhythm’s human capital management strategy to support the company’s continued growth.

“I am excited for the addition of top talent such as Melissa and Rusty to the LogRhythm team and look forward to them taking our people initiatives and products to the next level,” Logan stated.

Building on this trajectory, LogRhythm has received a significant amount of recognition from both customers and the industry since the start of 2020, including the following:


  • American Business Awards’® (ABA) Silver Stevie® for Large Company of the Year, Computer Software

  • Cyber Defense Magazine’s InfoSec Award for Best SIEM

  • Cyber Defense Magazine’s InfoSec Award for Market Leader for User Behavior Analytics

  • Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for SIEM for the fourth consecutive year

  • Government Security Award for Network Security

  • Government Security Award for Risk Analysis

  • International Business Awards’ Silver Stevie for Executive of the Year, Computer Software

  • International Business Awards’ Silver Stevie for Large Company of the Year, Computer Software

  • International Business Awards’ Silver Stevie for Most Valuable Corporate Response to COVID

  • Leader status in G2’s Summer 2020 Incident Response Grid

  • Leader status in G2’s Summer 2020 SIEM Grid

  • Leader status in G2’s Summer 2020 Usability Index for SIEM

  • Leader status in the 2020 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management

  • SC Media’s SC Award for Best SIEM Solution

A New Article Explains Why Drivers Should Buy Full Coverage Car Insurance

Leave a comment


News Image

“Getting full coverage ads extra protection and it is recommended for valuable cars. Get car insurance quotes and compare prices for multiple full coverage offers”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Compare-autoinsurance.org has released a new blog post that explains the main benefits of purchasing full car insurance coverage.

For more info and free quotes, visit http://compare-autoinsurance.org/why-get-full-coverage-car-insurance/

Full coverage means buying extra coverage, beyond the mandatory levels required by each state. Many drivers are not convinced that full coverage is beneficial, since this will drastically increase the costs. In order to get better coverage, at acceptable prices, it is recommended to shop around, using car insurance quotes. Get free quotes from http://compare-autoinsurance.org.


  • Extend the basic level of protection. Generally, full coverage includes 3 policies: liability (more than the minimum required), comprehensive and collision coverage. Despite the name, full coverage does not cover everything. But it will cover more scenarios in which the company will reimburse the policyholder.

  • Full coverage ensures that the policyholder will always be reimbursed for damage to his car. It is important to remember that liability coverage is designed to cover the victims of an accident, when the policyholder is the guilty driver. In this scenario. without collision or comprehensive coverage, the policyholder will have to pay for repairs from his own budget. Full coverage also pays for totaled cars. It is important to know that companies use Actual Cash Value when solving claims.

  • Uninsured motorist coverage is a really recommended policy. Let’s assume that a person gets into an accident with someone who’s uninsured and the accident is their fault. Often, that person won’t get coverage for property damage or medical fees. Unless that person has Uninsured Motorist coverage. This policy is highly recommended in states and areas with high unemployment rates. Consider analyzing the economic climate when purchasing car insurance.

  • Roadside assistance is a low-cost service with multiple benefits. Roadside assistance is usually cheap to get and will help the driver in many situations. Roadside assistance includes towing, delivering fuel or a spare tire. Read carefully the terms of the contract before signing in. Not everything is covered. Also, drivers are charged for extra miles than the limits added in the contract.

Compare-autoinsurance.org is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes. This website is unique because it does not simply stick to one kind of insurance provider, but brings the clients the best deals from many different online insurance carriers.
