Cyber Catastrophe Bond & ILS Telemetry Trigger Verification Engine

Cyber cat bonds require automated, tamper-proof telemetry validation to trigger bond payouts upon systemic outage events. Build a high-speed Python verification engine using Pydantic AI that validates global cloud uptime API signals and determines parametric catastrophe bond triggers.

What you are building

Construct a tamper-proof parametric trigger verification system using Pydantic AI for cyber catastrophe bonds.

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates outage telemetry signal validation and payout trigger calculation precision.

Datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

How submissions are scored

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

payout_range_check

Ensures payout_pct is between 0.0 and 1.0

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

verification_accuracy

Accuracy in validating true cloud outages versus transient false alarms • target: 0.98 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

  • Process distributed cloud service uptime and global network outage telemetry logs

  • Build Pydantic AI validation agents ensuring signal authenticity and zero spoofing

  • Compute parametric payout percentages based on hours of continuous major cloud region outage

  • Output auditable catastrophe bond execution state reports
