IMA Financial Group director of innovation and strategy Garrett Droege said: “Digital-native companies have become integral to society, and our clients must maintain uptime of their platforms to provide the best user experience. Through our partnership with Parametrix, we can add risk mitigation measures from the leader in cloud downtime insurance to protect our clients from outages.”

Given that enterprise dependency on the cloud is increasing, it also means that firms are increasingly exposed to financial risk from public cloud outages.

Parametrix’s downtime insurance policies manage the risk.

The company claimed that all the terms, including those on coverage and the damages, are agreed in advance.

Furthermore, the waiting period for downtime insurance can be fixed to as little as an hour of downtime, stated the company.
