Event Synopsis:
The unabated cyberattacks are causing significant damages and sizable incident response cost to companies and, according to a research, these risks are expected to skyrocket the nascent Cyber-Insurance market by U.S. $10 billion in 2020. More and more companies are now seriously considering the transfer of their cyberattack risks to insurance providers. In a short span of time, Cyber-Insurance has become a vital part in corporate breach response and is indeed a critical need in this era of rising cyber assaults.
Although organizations should strongly consider Cyber-Insurance, they should also be well-versed with the fundamental know-hows before they purchase a policy. It is important that they ensure a detailed system tailored to their risk profile and ascertain that they obtain the cyber insurance coverage that fits with the risks and liabilities which they will encounter in an event of a data breach.
In this two-hour live Webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders will help enterprises understand the important aspects of this significant topic. They will provide an in-depth discussion of the Cyber-Insurance market trends and offer best practices in selecting the best cyber-insurance coverage based on the enterprises’ specific needs.
Key topics include:
The Cyber-Insurance Market Trends
Cyber-Insurance Coverage and Limitations
Remediation Costs
Regulatory Forecasts
Best Practices in Purchasing Cyber-Insurance Policy
