When businesses get hit by ransomware, they usually face two big problems: the attack itself and then the deductible. Huntress and Acrisure have just taken away one of those headaches. The two companies have launched a new cyber insurance program. Now, eligible Huntress customers and partners can get Cyber or Tech Errors and Omissions policies with zero deductible. The application process is simple, removing the paperwork that often keeps businesses from getting the coverage they need.
What The Program Covers
There are two types of policies. Cyber coverage protects against common cyber risks. Tech E&O covers liability for technology errors and omissions, which matters most for managed service providers and tech firms working inside client networks. Acrisure offers both policies. To qualify, organizations must use Huntress Managed Endpoint Detection and Response and Identity Threat Detection and Response solutions.
This requirement is central to the program. Huntress protects over five million endpoints and eleven million identities worldwide. Its Security Operations Center uses AI to monitor for ransomware, business email compromise, and identity attacks all day, every day. Organizations with this level of managed security have a much lower risk, and Acrisure’s data backs this up.
Adam Abresch, EVP of Cyber Solutions at Acrisure, made the underwriting case directly: “Our data indicates that better outcomes can be achieved by leveraging managed security platforms.” That is not a marketing claim. It is a loss-ratio observation, and insurers are paying close attention.
Acrisure’s Cyber Strategy Is Bigger Than One Deal
This program did not arrive from nowhere. Acrisure has spent the past twelve months constructing a comprehensive cyber architecture for the businesses it serves. In May 2025, it raised $2.1 billion led by Bain Capital. Part of that capital targets M&A and technology expansion. In August 2025, its Wholesure wholesale unit struck a deal with CyberCube to embed real-time risk analytics directly into broker workflows. We covered that partnership here.
There’s a clear pattern: better analytics for brokers, verified data from security platforms, and improved terms for customers who can show strong security results. The Huntress program is the public result of this strategy. Jeremy Young, Director of Community at Huntress, said the partnership shows “a shared focus on helping make cyber protection and resiliency more accessible to businesses.” The waived deductible proves this commitment.
Huntress Has Been Building Toward This
Huntress has been actively growing over the past year. In November 2025, it bought Inside Agent, a startup focused on Microsoft 365 and Entra ID security. In March 2026, Huntress launched two new products to help find and fix security gaps across devices and identities. Then in July 2025, it also started working more closely with Microsoft to better integrate with Defender environments.
The February 2026 Cyber Threat Report from Huntress highlights the scale of the problem. Cybercrime is now the world’s third-largest economy, with costs expected to hit $12.2 trillion a year by 2031. Abuse of RMM tools jumped 277% in one year. Ransomware groups now take longer, moving from 17 to 20 hours on average, as they focus more on stealth and data theft. Insurance carriers see these trends in their claims data, and Huntress customers stand out in a positive way.
What Underwriters And CFOs Should Watch
Security-linked underwriting is now becoming a real product, not just an idea. In this model, verified security data from managed platforms directly affects coverage terms. Abresch highlighted Huntress’s strong record against ransomware and business email compromise, which are the most expensive types of cyber claims. This proven track record, supported by Huntress’s SOC data, is why the program offers such good terms.
For underwriters, this deal is a model that can be repeated. A managed security provider with proven results teams up with a large broker to create a tailored program. The no-deductible feature is a calculated decision based on risk, not just a giveaway. Organizations using Huntress solutions stand out when it comes to claims, and that difference affects pricing.
