Texas and Illinois are among the nation's top five states for salon and fitness studio density.
The Beauty & Wellness sector—sometimes referred to as Personal Care—is among the fastest-growing segments of the U.S. economy, and one of the hardest hit during the pandemic. Rainbow's approach uses proprietary technology to synthesize public data in real time, enabling 'continuous underwriting' for more accurate and adaptive risk assessment. As these businesses evolve, they're demanding more tailored coverage and faster service—something Rainbow is uniquely positioned to deliver.

Appointed agents in Texas and Illinois now have access to Rainbow's Beauty & Wellness program, designed specifically for personal care businesses and supported by a fully digital quote-to-bind platform and Rainbow's experienced staff.
'Helping agents with their specialty commercial insurance needs is the reason why Rainbow exists. Our partnerships within the independent agent channel go deep, and our continuous underwriting technology gives us the unique edge in serving industries like beauty and wellness from which traditional carriers have otherwise shied away at no fault of those business operators,' said Bobby Touran, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Rainbow. 'In an industry where insurance is a no-brainer, we're proud to bring this proprietary intelligence—and a better overall experience—to Texas and Illinois agents and their business owners in one of the fastest growing segments of the economy.'
Rainbow's Beauty & Wellness program includes:
Comprehensive coverage: Business Owners Policy and Excess Liability, with customizable options like Professional Liability, EPLI, and more.
Admitted coverage: Inclusive of high-need services such as barbering, massage therapy, fitness studios, and even historically non-admitted risks like body piercing.

Andromeda Security Unveils Strategic Enhancements to Combat Escalating Identity Attacks

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Andromeda Security, the company automating permissions and lifecycle across human and non-human identities, today announced a major product expansion delivering broad support for cloud services, granular resource-level access visibility, and critical integrations such as Active Directory. This launch reflects the company's continued mission to reduce the identity attack surface and help organizations accelerate their Zero Trust journey. With 95% of permissions over-provisioned, and 99% of organizations blaming insecure identities for breaches, enterprises face mounting risk from both human and non-human identities (NHIs) and the coming onslaught of AgenticAI. 'Andromeda stands out as a strategic partner in identity security, providing the holistic visibility needed for both human and non-human identities," said Bill Harper, Director of IAM, New American Funding. 'Its powerful risk and behavioral context fuels intelligent automation for streamlined Just-in-Time access, giving us immense confidence in our security posture.' Cloud-scale has broken traditional identity tools. The complexity and speed of today's hybrid environments require intelligent automation that's informed by deep, real-time context. Siloed identity tools leave dormant accounts or over-provisioned access unmonitored, making them prime targets for exploitation and contributing directly to financial losses. When organizations are managing thousands of identities across cloud and applications with minimal visibility into actual usage patterns, they're operating blind. 'This release is a testament to our team's rapid pace of innovation and deep understanding of the modern identity threat landscape,' added Basavaiah. 'We are not just adding features, we are expanding the breadth, depth, and precision needed to address today's most complex identity challenges.' The updates deliver on a roadmap driven by customer demand, providing the most expansive coverage for identity security across multi-cloud and hybrid deployments including: Expanded Cloud Service Provider Support: Comprehensive support for Google Cloud Platform (GCP), reaching parity with AWS and Azure. Includes JIT access, User Access Reviews (UAR), and activity-based insights for GCP identities. Active Directory Integration: Bridges hybrid identity by ingesting on-prem AD data to provide compliance and risk visibility across humans, NHIs, and the Group and UARs. Business-Critical App & Data Store Integrations: New support for Salesforce, Snowflake, MongoDB Atlas, and ElasticSearch risk insights across humans and NHI, JIT access and UARs. Fine-Grained Cloud Resource Management: Resource-level visibility, JIT access and UAR now available for AWS (S3, RDS, DynamoDB, Redshift, EC2, Secrets Manager), GCP (BigQuery, Cloud Storage), and Azure (Blob Storage, VMs). Kubernetes Security: Native support for EKS, AKS, GKE, and self-managed clusters for namespace- and cluster-level access control. Expanded HRIS & ITSM Integrations: Support for Workday, ADP, and Jira, including JIRA-based access validation for JIT workflows. UAR & JIT Enhancements: More advanced user access review features (e.g., group reviews, auto-revocations) and expanded JIT workflows, now integrated with Jira, Slack, and Teams. Multi-Tenancy for MSSPs: New capabilities for MSSPs and enterprises managing multiple environments. Andromeda's architecture is purpose-built for contextual, risk-driven identity automation, ingesting data from identity providers, cloud logs, and applications into a unified graph-based data lake. Its AI models power insights and decisions around risk, posture, usage, and behavior, delivering automated remediation, access enforcement and improved compliance with confidence and speed. 'What began as a search for a better User Access Review tool quickly turned into a game changing move for our identity security program,' said Emilio Sepulveda, Director of Security & Compliance at Deepwatch. 'Andromeda did not just improve our access reviews—it redefined how we manage identity across the organization. The onboarding was seamless and the platform gave us immediate, precise control over both human and nonhuman identities.' About Andromeda Security Andromeda Security addresses the most persistent challenges in identity security: excessive and inappropriate access across both human and non-human identities, manual processes and a lack of end-to-end context – compounded by fragmented data. Its data-centric platform unifies identity, entitlement, and activity data into a graph-based architecture—building rich context and laying the foundation for intelligent automation while delivering holistic visibility and remediation. Powered by AI, Andromeda utilizes contextual intelligence built on risk and behavior insights to provide automated and continuous enforcement of least privilege, Just-in-Time (JIT) access, User Access Reviews (UAR), and identity lifecycle governance—helping organizations reduce their attack surface, improve operational agility, and simplify compliance.
