In a case where the authors cannot name the company, you would cite as follows:

"Anonymous Firm (DATE OF FILE CREATION)"

and have in the references the following entry:

Anonymous Firm. (DATE OF FILE CREATION), Property Insurance claims. Accessed via Cornell Restricted Access Data Center (CRADC). Last accessed on (DATE).

where

Author = "Anonymous Firm"
Title (of dataset) = "Property Insurance Claims"
Distributor = the secure access center where the data reside/were accessed = "CRADC"
Date = date the date were created (authors should know that)
Version = in this case, proxied by "Last accessed on (DATE)"
