Computer-implemented method and system for identifying events that may pose a risk to a computing device that comprises: receiving sensor data 110 from sensors coupled to the computing device; using the sensor data to identify an event posing a risk to the computing device 120; and presenting, based on the identified event, an offer to insure the computing device 130 to a user of the device. The risk comprises one or more of damage to the computing device and loss of the computing device. The sensors may be thermal detectors, location detectors, moisture sensors, altimeters, accelerometers, gyroscopes or magnetometers. An insurance provider can provide predetermined thresholds for the sensor data that are associated with the offer to insure. A risk event may be identified by detecting the presence of malware on the computing device. The computing device may be a smartphone, tablet, watch or laptop computer. |
