Verisk는 상세한 위치, 구조 및 운영 정보를 담은 새로운 미국 데이터센터 노출 데이터베이스를 출시했습니다.

Boston, Sept. 03, 2026 -- Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK), a leading strategic data analytics and technology partner to the global insurance industry, announced the launch of the Verisk U.S. Data Center Exposure Database. The database provides building-level geocoding, facility footprints, physical characteristics, and operational attributes for more than 2,500 facilities nationwide. It is designed to help insurers, reinsurers, and brokers better understand and manage one of the fastest-growing concentrations of risk. The dataset integrates directly into Verisk Synergy Studio and Touchstone to support underwriting, exposure management, catastrophe analytics, and portfolio accumulation assessments.

The release coincides with a surge in artificial intelligence-driven investment in digital infrastructure. Industry sources project that global data center insurance premiums could more than double from approximately $10 billion in 2026 to $23 billion by 2030. Data centers house billions of dollars in physical assets and support essential business, government, and digital operations, yet insurers frequently rely on incomplete or inconsistent location data when evaluating exposure concentrations and catastrophe risk. To address this gap, the new database includes rooftop-level geocoding, building footprint data, construction type, floor area, capacity, and operational redundancy characteristics. It also provides flat-file records, building footprint shapefiles, and a 90-meter disaggregation grid to enable advanced geospatial analytics and catastrophe modeling. Available data fields and levels of detail may vary by facility and source.

Rob Newbold, president of Verisk Catastrophe and Risk Solutions, stated, AI is often discussed as a digital transformation story, but it is increasingly a physical infrastructure story. The facilities powering that growth represent billions of dollars in concentrated assets, and that has implications not only for insurers but also for reinsurers, investors and capital markets participants looking to understand and manage emerging sources of potential risk. Jay Guin, executive vice president and chief research officer of Verisk Catastrophe and Risk Solutions, added, Data centers have quietly become one of the largest and fastest-growing concentrations of insured value in the modern economy. Organizations are investing billions of dollars to support AI-driven growth, but many insurers are increasingly focused on understanding where these assets are located and how risk accumulates across regions and portfolios. If you can't identify the exposure, you can't effectively measure or manage it. This data set is designed to provide additional information to support those efforts. He further noted that data centers are ultimately physical facilities with real-world exposure to hurricanes, flooding, severe convective storms, earthquakes and other perils. As AI infrastructure continues expanding across the United States, understanding where those assets are located and how risks aggregate becomes increasingly important to insurers, businesses and communities alike.

The Verisk U.S. Data Center Exposure Database is developed by AIR Worldwide Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Verisk Analytics, Inc., and is available to insurers, reinsurers, brokers, and other risk management organizations through Verisk’s catastrophe modeling software platforms.
