Can AI agents be insured against production incidents?

Yes — cyber insurance policies can cover AI agent incidents, but insurers increasingly require evidence of AI governance controls before providing coverage, and ungoverned AI agent deployments may be excluded from coverage or face significantly higher premiums.

The AI insurance landscape:

• Coverage availability: Major cyber insurers (AIG, Chubb, Beazley) now offer AI-specific riders, but with governance requirements
• Underwriting questions: "Do you have deterministic controls over AI agent actions?" "Can you provide audit trails for all agent operations?" "Do you have a kill switch?"
• Premium impact: Organizations with AI governance controls typically see 20-40% lower premiums than those without
• Exclusions: Some policies explicitly exclude "AI autonomous action without human oversight" — ungoverned agents may have no coverage
• Claims evidence: When filing a claim, the insurer will ask for detailed logs of what happened — without an audit trail, claims may be denied

Exogram provides exactly what insurers want to see: deterministic policy enforcement (proves you have controls), cryptographic audit trails (proves what happened), kill switch capability (proves you can respond), and continuous monitoring (proves ongoing governance). Better governance = better insurance terms.
