Active Huntress Managed EDR.
Agents deployed and reporting in across every endpoint in scope. Coverage is contingent on the platform being live in the environment, not on shelf.
Cyber insurance
Eligible Obsidian Ridge clients running both Huntress Managed EDR and Managed ITDR can apply for the Huntress × Acrisure Cyber Insurance Program — placed through Acrisure, underwritten by Dual North America on A-rated paper at program launch, with a $0 deductible on covered losses. The application is a Statement of Fact attesting to the Huntress deployment we already operate for you, not a multi-page security questionnaire.
Are you eligible?
The Huntress × Acrisure program is mid-market only — built for organizations large enough that an SMB carrier won't quote them simply and small enough that an enterprise broker won't return their calls. If you don't fit the band below, scroll past this section and use one of the linked alternative paths. We'd rather route you correctly than have you read 1,500 words about a program that excludes you.
| Your profile | Right next step | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 50–2,500 employees, sub-$100M revenue, running (or willing to onboard) Huntress EDR + ITDR | You're on the right page. Keep reading. | You fit the eligibility band Huntress and Acrisure published at program launch. |
| Under 50 employees | Cyber Insurance Readiness Sprint → | The program floor is 50 employees. The Sprint prepares your evidence packet for whichever traditional carrier you can apply to. |
| Over 2,500 employees or above $100M revenue | Book an enterprise briefing → | Above the program's stated band. Enterprise underwriting is a different motion — we still help, through a different path. |
| Not running Huntress, won't swap from CrowdStrike / SentinelOne / Defender | Multi-vendor managed security → | Eligibility is contingent on Huntress EDR + ITDR being live. Different stack → different insurance path, but we still operate yours. |
Why this broker matters
Acrisure is the broker placing the policy — not a niche startup riding the Huntress channel. The firm grew from $38M to roughly $5B in annual revenue over eleven years, employs more than 19,000 people across 23 countries, and was valued at roughly $32 billion in its May 2025 $2.1B convertible-preferred raise led by Bain Capital. Scale matters at claim time: the carrier and broker have to still exist, and still have a working claims function, the day you need to file.
Underwriting at program launch is by Dual North America — one of the largest independent underwriting organizations in the United States, writing on A-rated / A-plus paper. That's the structural reason Huntress can position this as primary insurance instead of one more “ransomware warranty” with configuration gotchas in the fine print.
TL;DR
Huntress and Acrisure launched a joint cyber insurance program on 2026-05-12. Eligible buyers running Huntress Managed EDR and Managed ITDR can apply through Acrisure for a streamlined cyber policy with a $0 deductible on covered losses, underwritten at launch by Dual North America on A-rated / A-plus paper. The application is a Statement of Fact attesting to the Huntress deployment, not a 40-page questionnaire.
Obsidian Ridge is your Huntress partner-of-record. We operate the EDR and ITDR coverage your eligibility depends on, we walk you through the Statement of Fact during your briefing, and we coordinate with the Acrisure agent placing the policy. We do not sell, broker, or rebadge the insurance. The policy, premium, and claim-handling live with Acrisure and the carrier.
The point: the security investment you already make through us is what makes the policy possible. The insurance is a downstream consequence of running EDR + ITDR correctly, not a separate product line.
Two policies, two audiences
Huntress and Acrisure publish two distinct policy paths under the same program. Don't confuse them on the application.
| Policy | Who it covers | What it covers | Placement & underwriting |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cyber Insurance | The operating business — your dental practice, law firm, accounting firm. | Covers the operating business when an incident hits. Common scenarios named publicly include ransomware, business email compromise, and data breach response. | Acrisure, underwritten by Dual North America at launch. |
| Tech E&O | MSPs, MSSPs, and IT providers in their professional-services capacity. | Covers the technology provider for errors-and-omissions exposure tied to delivering technology services to clients. Not a substitute for the end-customer's cyber policy. | Acrisure, underwritten by Dual North America at launch. |
Most of our clients want the Cyber Insurance policy on their operating business. If you are an IT or MSP partner of ours and need Tech E&O on your own services entity, we can route you the same way — same broker, same underwriter, same program path.
Eligibility
Agents deployed and reporting in across every endpoint in scope. Coverage is contingent on the platform being live in the environment, not on shelf.
Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace identity coverage in place — both products are required for the streamlined application, not either/or.
Huntress describes the program at launch as targeting 50–2,500 employee organizations in sub-$100M revenue bands. The current eligibility window is published on huntress.com/hac, and Acrisure confirms applicant-specific fit during the application.
Acrisure replaces the usual multi-page technical questionnaire with basic firmographics plus a Statement of Fact attesting to Huntress deployment. The practitioner side of the prep is on us.
Where it lands hardest
The program is most useful for the buyers who already face the hardest cyber-insurance renewal pressure: regulated SMBs whose carriers want to see security investment before they quote.
PHI exposure is the carrier's first question. EDR + ITDR + the Acrisure application path puts a written, attested security baseline in front of underwriting — instead of a guess on the renewal form.
ABA Formal Opinion 483 and most state-bar reasonable-care obligations push toward documented, monitored security. The same controls satisfy the Acrisure Statement of Fact, so the application is a paperwork step, not a months-long control build.
IRS WISP requirements under Publication 5708 and FTC Safeguards Rule align with what the Huntress stack already attests to. The carrier sees an environment that reflects the security investment, not just a checked box.
How Obsidian Ridge fits
Huntress designed the partner side of the program so that practitioners like us aren't turned into insurance providers. That is the right shape. Our job is to deliver the security posture the carrier is pricing against — agents healthy, identity coverage live, alert-handling logged, incident-response playbook current. We provide the operational evidence behind the Statement of Fact, and we hand you cleanly off to the Acrisure agent for the application itself.
That separation is intentional. We don't earn commission on your premium, we don't adjust claims, and we don't decide what gets paid. We do make sure the security that supports the policy is actually running — which is the part that has tripped up most SMB cyber-insurance applications in the carriers' loss data over the last three years.
What we don't yet know
Several program details are not yet publicly disclosed by Huntress, Acrisure, or Dual North America. We tell you what's known and what isn't rather than pretending otherwise.
Coverage limits. Per-claim and aggregate limits are not published; ask Acrisure for a quote based on your firmographics. The bound policy form names the specific limits that apply to your organization.
Premium pricing. Acrisure provides individualized quotes; no rate card or sample-quote range is published. Pricing is driven by industry, headcount, revenue, and other underwriting inputs.
Covered perils, exclusions, and sub-limits. The program is built around ransomware, business email compromise (BEC), and data breach response. The full named-perils list, sub-limits, waiting periods, and exclusions are in the policy form Acrisure provides at quote time.
State-specific availability (including North Carolina). Coverage is issued on surplus-lines paper, which varies by state and is not pre-published. Confirm NC availability — and any other client-domiciled state — with the Acrisure intake team via huntress.com/hac.
Application timeline. Applications are open to all eligible Huntress customers and partners now; no rolling enablement window has been announced.
Eligibility band.Verified unchanged since 2026-05-12 launch: 50–2,500 employees, sub-$100M revenue, with active Huntress Managed EDR and Managed ITDR required.
Claims process and SLA. Claims are handled by Acrisure specialists in coordination with Dual North America as underwriter. No published claims SLA as of May 2026.
Honest fit check
We'd rather you read this twice than buy a thing you don't need.
FAQ
No. The insurance is placed by Acrisure and underwritten by Dual North America. Obsidian Ridge does not sell, broker, or rebadge the policy. We operate the Huntress Managed EDR and ITDR coverage your eligibility depends on, and we walk you through the Statement of Fact during your briefing. The actual application, premium, and policy live with Acrisure.
It is real. Huntress and Acrisure announced the program on 2026-05-12 with a $0 deductible on covered losses for eligible applicants. The structural reason is that the carrier is pricing against a known security posture (Huntress EDR + ITDR live in the environment), which lets them remove the retention layer that normally absorbs first-dollar loss. The $0 deductible is the program-level baseline; the policy form Acrisure issues to your specific organization is the document that governs the actual terms.
Dual North America at program launch — one of the largest independent underwriting organizations in the US, writing on A-rated / A-plus paper. Huntress' own program page identifies Dual NA as the underwriter; the press-release language confirms coverage is issued by a non-admitted or surplus-lines insurer, which is consistent with how Dual NA writes most of its cyber book. The A-rated paper is the structural reason this can be positioned as primary insurance rather than a vendor warranty.
Huntress publicly references ransomware, business email compromise, and data breach response as covered claim scenarios. The specific covered perils, sub-limits, exclusions, retention windows, and waiting periods are determined by the policy form Acrisure issues, which the applicant reviews before binding.
Per-claim and aggregate limits are not published in the program launch materials. Limits are quoted per applicant during the application process, against inputs like industry, headcount, revenue, and exposure profile. The bound policy form names the specific limits that apply to your organization.
Huntress' own disclaimer notes the program may not be available in all jurisdictions, which is standard language for surplus-lines paper. The Acrisure agent confirms availability for each applicant's domiciled state — including North Carolina — during the application.
Most carriers will not double-cover the same event. The right move is to compare the existing carrier's terms — limits, deductible, exclusions, claim-handling reputation — against the Acrisure-placed program at the next renewal. The $0 deductible and the streamlined application are typically the comparison points that matter. We help structure that comparison; we do not break an existing policy mid-term.
Different intent. The Readiness Sprint is for organizations that need a clean evidence packet for whichever carrier they apply to — including this program or any other. If you are already running Huntress EDR + ITDR through Obsidian Ridge, you skip most of the sprint work and go directly to the Acrisure application. If you are not yet on the platform, the sprint is how we get you ready while we onboard the Huntress side.
Next step
If you're already running Huntress EDR + ITDR through Obsidian Ridge, the briefing confirms eligibility and routes you to the Acrisure agent. If you're not yet on the platform, the same call scopes the path that gets you there.
