C. Nurse and James Sullivan28 June 2021 This paper explores cyber insurance's potential contribution to solving this problem. Over the last year, remote working, rapid digitalisation and the need for increased connectivity have emphasised the cyber security challenge. This paper explores whether cyber insurance can incentivise better cyber security practices among policyholders. It finds that the shortcomings of cyber insurance mean that its contribution to improving cyber security practices is more limited than policymakers and businesses might hope. Although several means by which cyber insurance can incentivise better cyber security practices are identified, they have significant limitations.
