Aug 2, 2013
With the increasing cost and volume of data breaches, cyber security is quickly moving from
being considered by business leaders as a purely technical issue to a larger business risk. This
shift has spurred increased interest in cyber insurance to mitigate the cost of these issues. In a new study sponsored by Experian® Data Breach Resolution, Ponemon Institute surveyed risk management professionals across multiple sectors that have considered or adopted cyber insurance. Based on responses, many understand that security is a clear and present risk. Indeed a majority of companies now rank cyber security risks as greater than natural disasters and other major business risks.
