Which cloud providers does Parametrix cover?

The top three public cloud service providers: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

What kind of companies buy cloud outage insurance?

downward arrow icon

Companies of all sizes, across all industries buy cloud outage insurance. Parametrix policies ensure business continuity by protecting revenue streams during a downtime event.

Parametrix cloud outage insurance is especially suited for companies that:
1. Have mission critical activities that depend on the cloud
2. Have service-level agreements (SLAs) in place that rely on the cloud
3. Would experience direct revenue losses, operational losses, or other financial or intangible losses as a result of a cloud outage event

How do I choose the coverage level suitable for my business?

downward arrow icon

Based on your company’s size, industry, and business type, you need enough coverage to compensate for any downtime losses. Consider revenue, gross profit, and potential SLA responsibilities.

Don't cloud service providers compensate their customers for downtime?

downward arrow icon

No. Some providers issue customer credits following a downtime event, but cloud service providers do not compensate for any financial losses incurred as a result of downtime. That’s what we are here for.

How much coverage can I buy?

downward arrow icon

We provide limits of $100k, $200k, $500k, or $1M for each cloud provider used by a single client. For higher limits, please contact support@parametrixinsurance.com.

Are there any restrictions on how I can use claims payout funds?

downward arrow icon

No. Settlement payments can be used to cover SLA liabilities, customer compensation, regulatory penalties, or any other cost incurred due to a downtime event. Parametrix customers have used their claims monies to immediately cover costs ranging from direct revenue losses to emergency PR spending to protect their brand’s reputation after a downtime event.

Who underwrites your policies?

How is Parametrix cloud outage insurance different from other insurance policies in the market?

downward arrow icon

Most insurance products - including most cyber policies - do not cover downtime of third-party cloud service providers. Those that do, have high deductibles, long waiting periods, complex claims adjustment processes, restrictions, and exclusions.

Parametrix insurance products are parametric by nature, so they have no monetary deductible, no restriction on the use of claims funds, and do not require an adjusting process. Consequently, fixed claims will be paid almost immediately after an outage event triggers your policy.

What is parametric insurance?

downward arrow icon

Parametric insurance is an index-based insurance product that covers and settles losses based on objectively measured parameters rather than on measured or “adjusted” losses. Parametric insurance products are simple and transparent, ensuring claims are paid quickly, without the need for a lengthy claims adjustment process.

How do your policies affect my existing insurance?

downward arrow icon

Parametrix complements your existing coverage by filling a critical protection gap. Our products can act as a standalone policy or an add-on to your existing cyber or business interruption policy.

What is the process to get insured?

downward arrow icon

Select your cloud provider and coverage amount and fill out a form with your company details. Our underwriting team will review the information provided, and reach out within 2-3 business days to complete the underwriting process. After signing our quote document, if approved, we will bind coverage and your company will be cloud insured.
