SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CATASTROPHIC EVENT MODELING

1 . A method for generating synthetic hazard data for cyber-insurance, comprising:

selecting, from treaty information, a shadow company, wherein the treaty information includes records relating to known companies and at least one shadow company, wherein the treaty information relating to the at least one shadow company does not include hazard data;

sampling, from a database, a number of known companies that are part of an insurance treaty, wherein the sampled known companies include verified hazard data for their digital assets;

determining a probability distribution for a likelihood that the selected shadow company uses at least one digital asset used by the sampled known companies;

generating a set of Apriori rules describing the likelihood that two digital assets are used together;

generating, for the selected shadow company, synthetic hazard data, wherein synthetic hazard data is hazard data generated based on the set of Apriori rules and the determined the probability distribution; and

associating the synthetic hazard data with the selected shadow company.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the method is repeated for each shadow company included in the treaty information.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the number of known companies is a function of a count of the known companies included in the database.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein treaty information includes information on companies organized in an insurance treaty, wherein at least one of the companies in the treaty information is a shadow company having identifying details but missing hazard data.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining the probability distribution using a Bayesian inference model with Monte Carlo Markov-Chain simulation.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the probability distribution further comprises:

correlating hazard data of the sampled known companies with industry-based hazard data, wherein industry-based hazard data includes digital assets commonly used in the industry and location of the shadow company.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the database is an industry exposure database.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein a digital asset is at least one of: a technology, an application, or a service, which is utilized or deployed by a company included in the database.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein generating at least an Apriori rule further comprises:

applying at least an Apriori algorithm to a set of data, wherein the set of data includes hazard data of the companies included in the sampled known companies and industry hazard data.

10 . A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for causing a processing circuitry to execute a process, the process comprising:

selecting, from treaty information, a shadow company, wherein the treaty information includes records relating to known companies and at least one shadow company, wherein the treaty information relating to the at least one shadow company does not include hazard data;

sampling, from a database, a number of known companies that are part of an insurance treaty, wherein the sampled known companies include verified hazard data for their digital assets;

determining a probability distribution for a likelihood that the selected shadow company uses at least one digital asset used by the sampled known companies;

generating a set of Apriori rules describing the likelihood that two digital assets are used together;

generating, for the selected shadow company, synthetic hazard data, wherein synthetic hazard data is hazard data generated based on the set of Apriori rules and the determined the probability distribution; and

associating the synthetic hazard data with the selected shadow company.

11 . A system for generating synthetic hazard data for cyber-insurance, comprising:

a processing circuitry; and

a memory, the memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processing circuitry, configure the system to:

select, from treaty information, a shadow company, wherein the treaty information includes records relating to known companies and at least one shadow company, wherein the treaty information relating to the at least one shadow company does not include hazard data;

sample, from a database, a number of known companies that are part of an insurance treaty, wherein the sampled known companies include verified hazard data for their digital assets;

determine a probability distribution for a likelihood that the selected shadow company uses at least one digital asset used by the sampled known companies;

generate a set of Apriori rules describing the likelihood that two digital assets are used together;

generate, for the selected shadow company, synthetic hazard data, wherein synthetic hazard data is hazard data generated based on the set of apriori rules and the determined the probability distribution; and

associate the synthetic hazard data with the selected shadow company.

12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the system is configured to repeat the instructions for each shadow company included in the treaty information.

13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the number of known companies is a function of a count of the known companies included in the database.

14 . The system of claim 11 , wherein treaty information includes information on companies organized in an insurance treaty, wherein at least one of the companies in the treaty information is a shadow company having identifying details but missing hazard data.

15 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the system is further configured to:

determine the probability distribution using a Bayesian inference model with Monte Carlo Markov-Chain simulation.

16 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the system is further configured to:

correlate hazard data of the sampled known companies with industry-based hazard data, wherein industry-based hazard data includes digital assets commonly used in the industry and location of the shadow company.

17 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the database is an industry exposure database.

18 . The system of claim 11 , wherein a digital asset is at least one of: a technology, an application, or a service, which is utilized or deployed by a company included in the database.

19 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the system is further configured to:

apply at least an Apriori algorithm to a set of data, wherein the set of data includes hazard data of the companies included in the sampled known companies and industry hazard data.
