Zurich Insurance Group has invested $60 million in cyber insurance firm Cowbell to help it scale operations and deliver new products.

Cyber insurance firm Cowbell has raised $60 million in Series C funding from Zurich Insurance Group, bringing the total raised by the company to over $200 million.

SMBs can use the company’s Cowbell Factor rating index to evaluate their cyber risk and get the insurance coverage that matches their security threats.  

Cowbell, which seeks to protect and educate SMBs from existing and emerging threats, offers cyber risk warnings, continuous risk assessment, a closed-loop approach to risk management, and premium incentives for policy makers to improve their security stance.

The company plans to use the new investment to scale operations, expand to key international markets, introduce new products, and strengthen its partnerships.

Furthermore, it will leverage the latest advancements in AI and generative AI to expand its technological infrastructure.
