Case Study: AXA XL achieves comprehensive third-party risk visibility with Flashpoint Cyber Risk Analytics

AXA XL Manages Their Risk Exposure with Comprehensive Data Breach Intelligence

AXA XL, a leading global insurance and reinsurance firm, faced a significant challenge in managing risk exposure across its vast network of thousands of third-party vendors. Information Security Specialist Artea Evans needed a comprehensive solution for continuous vendor monitoring and supply-chain risk management, as her existing tools provided only fragmented visibility. To address this, the company turned to the vendor Flashpoint and its Cyber Risk Analytics service.

The solution, Cyber Risk Analytics, provided AXA XL with a "single pane of glass" view into its supply chain by delivering comprehensive data breach intelligence and risk ratings via a RESTful API. Flashpoint's platform, combined with its PreBreach tool and VulnDB, enabled the security team to perform detailed vendor due diligence, analyze vulnerabilities, and translate breach data into financial terms for negotiations. This empowered AXA XL to make smarter business decisions, avoid bad vendor arrangements, ultimately save time and resources, and generate revenue more securely.
