In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Jake Harding sits down with Jay Wallace of VulnCheck about how real-time exploit intelligence is reshaping cyber insurance. They unpack why traditional CVSS scoring falls short and how modeling threat actor behaviour offers a clearer picture of risk. Jay explains how carriers can use machine-readable data feeds to automate underwriting and continuously monitor exposure post-binding. 

The conversation also highlights the value of proactive threat notifications in reducing claims and strengthening client trust. Jay and Jake also explore how AI and automation enhance, not replace, analysts, and why the most successful insurers are shifting from a profit-centric mindset to a partnership-driven approach focused on prevention, resilience, and long-term value creation.
