Global Cyber Resilience: Strategic Intelligence from the Insurance Industry

A strategic intelligence channel often under-appreciated by executives around the world - ultimately codified into safety and security standards, national laws, and other frameworks - is often the result of the insurance industry involvement. From the late 1800s and the era of the steam engines that powered many cities, through mid-century regulations for automobile safety (seatbelts, airbags, and even autonomous vehicles), and the evolution of home protections (smoke/radon/carbon monoxide detectors), this still persists into the age of cyber. It is insurance analysis of the root causes of events, incidents, and breaches that leads to more rigorous underwriters qualification questions and ultimately results in updates and changes to regulatory and legal requirements. This leveraging of big data by insurance companies is a system that has proven successful in every industry and in every century. This session will explore the insights from the insurance process to help reduce the economic impact of cyber events that can be applied today to individual organizations/companies, whole industries, and entire nations in getting programs into place that allow all levels of society to be more proactive in security.
