Report Highlights

* Transferring risk in exchange of a premium makes commercial sense for businesses and organizations. As part of cyber risk insurance, several insurers provide value-added services such as access to a specialist lawyer, IT forensics experts and crisis management in the event of a data breach. This further makes cyber-insurance products more attractive, and also increases the value of the product to customers.
* Businesses are increasingly purchasing standalone cyber risk insurance policies to cover the specific cyber risks. Standalone cyber risk insurance policies fulfill the limitation of traditional policies by providing insurance cover for specific risks in a cyber environment. It includes the cost of security or data breach such as notification expenses, regulatory fines and penalties, investigation and restoration cost.
* Insurers are collaborating with cyber security experts to provide robust cyber risk management to the businesses and organizations. An ideal form of cyber risk management requires a balance between IT security measures and transfer of risk as an insurance solution for cyber risk. Insurers' core competency lies in pricing and underwriting risk, while cyber security experts specialize in using technology to deal with cyber vulnerabilities.
* The cyber insurance market has the ability to offer solutions that cover a broad range of cyber risks; however, there are certain caveats. Risks faced by the firms tend to be unique to the industry in which they operate, and this requires the policy to be accordingly customized. The degree of cyber exposure, the scale of the organization and the type of data collected are key determinants of cyber insurance policy terms and pricing.
