Brown & Brown, one of the top five independent insurance brokers in the U.S., will launch the new product later this year, leveraging Everbridge’s CEM platform to help their customers mitigate critical events before they occur.

“Brown & Brown is unveiling an industry-first product in the property and casualty insurance market that offers a proactive approach to mitigating loss,” said Eric Kasen, President of Brown & Brown, MA. “Everbridge’s unique risk intelligence data allows Brown & Brown to offer our customers advanced notifications to help protect property and people, as well as best practices and recommendations to limit or mitigate impact. We find significant value in being able to provide ongoing engagement with our customers – in advance of, during and after a critical event.”

An early release of this product is already in use by a FORTUNE 500, multi-national manufacturer to notify security managers at more than 200 of its facilities across the U.S. of oncoming severe weather, wildfires, flooding or other events that could impact their operations and people.

“As the market leader in risk intelligence and software for managing critical events, Everbridge is the ideal strategic partner for us to engage in bringing this unique product to market,” continued Kasen. “This offering is the first in a series of innovative technology-enabled products and services being developed through our collaboration with Everbridge, with the goal of introducing a cyber-insurance product soon.”

Today, Everbridge supports more than 6,000 enterprise customers with Critical Event Management (CEM) software applications that automate and accelerate organizations’ operational response to critical events.
