Synopsis

Timetric's 'Insight Report: Developments in Cyberinsurance' analyzes the evolution and expansion of cyberinsurance in the global market.

The globalization of value chains, rapid urbanization, continuous financial integration and the internet's ubiquity have accelerated worldwide economic growth in the past few decades. Unfortunately, these developments have also significantly increased vulnerability to external shocks in the form of cybercrime.

Increasing digitization has allowed cybercriminals to hack important data or disrupt the operational efficiency of various organizations. The growing threat of cyberattacks has positioned cyberinsurance as an important and effective risk-mitigation tool.

Although cyberinsurance does not replace the need for cybersecurity technology, it has the ability to complement cybersecurity standards through mitigating cyber risk. 

The report also analyzes regional and industry level developments, and risks pertaining to cyberinsurance. Knowledge of cyber-risk at granular level is critical when underwriting cover suited to business or industry-specific needs.
