Cyber-Insurance is the start of an important conversation
Conclusion: Cyber-insurance will be an inevitability for all organisations. However, executives should be clear on what level of cover they are buying, what incidents they are getting cover for, and the costs and impacts on the organisation that insurance cannot (or may not) cover.
An exploration into the feasibility of cyber-insurance is likely to raise good questions about whether an organisation has sufficient controls in place, as well as to what degree the organisation is willing to self-insure. But these questions, like the purchase of cyber-insurance, can only be addressed by the business.
