Upfort’s Cyber TuneUp tool was named Best Cybersecurity Industry Solution in the 2025 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards.

Cyber TuneUp is a cutting-edge solution that leverages advanced AI to seamlessly integrate cybersecurity practices into the underwriting process, addressing long-standing inefficiencies in the industry. 

Traditional underwriting is often slow, manual, and prone to errors, but Cyber TuneUp automates and streamlines these processes, making them faster, more accurate, and scalable for insurers.

The platform automates application workflows, scans for real-time attack surface vulnerabilities, and generates tailored risk mitigation recommendations based on the applicant’s cybersecurity posture. This holistic approach allows insurers to make informed decisions faster while helping small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) address critical vulnerabilities. Through proactive risk management, Cyber TuneUp provides insurers with a clear view of an applicant’s risk profile, while enabling SMEs to strengthen their security posture before securing coverage.

At the heart of Cyber TuneUp is Upfort’s proprietary dataset, which combines historical loss metrics, vulnerability data, and advanced AI modeling. This data fuels accurate risk scoring, which is used to optimize underwriting decisions, set competitive pricing, and refine overall risk models.

By addressing key pain points in the underwriting process and improving insurability for SMEs, Cyber TuneUp plays a pivotal role in closing the protection gap in the cyber insurance industry. It brings much-needed efficiency and proactive cybersecurity measures to an industry that has traditionally lagged behind in adopting modern solutions.

This award follows a slew of recent industry accolades for Upfort including the 2024 Startup of the Year and 2024 Fortress Security Award for its threat detection tools
