Congrats! A much needed initiative in the fragile web3 space. PS: My OCD couldn't resist to add the missing line to the logo

every reply so far seems to avoid answering the question itself. Other answers say how to minimize the impact of a sim swap but not how to protect against it. To protect against sim swapping you can pick a mobile carrier who requires a PIN/password in order to make changes to the account and pick a strong password

One important example is the fact that funds are sometimes fully or partially returned by the hacker in exchange for a bounty or due to the fact that they hacker is doxxed by someone like Hypernative or Chainalysis to the authorities after a forensic investigation.

It exists. Our friends at Etherisc have been doing it for certain types of insurance for a long time now. Examples where this works well are crop insurance and travel insurance. However, when it comes to web3 hack insurance there are some things that make parametric insurance more difficult.

Great question! Are you strictly referring to premiums and claims being paid on-chain or were you also referring to parametric insurance where the claims are paid out automatically based on an oracle?

Hey, I would like add my 2 cents to this conversation. Sherlock doesn't use their own funds for insurance, they use funds from Nexus Mutual, which is nor really insurance, because it's unregulated. AFAIK the only auditing company using their own funds to provide regulated insurance is Quantstamp.
