Role of cyber insurance in risk mgt.
In March 2016, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Protection Subcommittee (part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security) at a hearing titled “The Role of Cyber Insurance in Risk Management” noted the following:
“The purpose of the hearing was to examine the potential opportunities to promote the adoption of cyber best practices and more effective management of cyber risks through cyber insurance.” https://homeland.house.gov/hearing/the-role-of-cyber-insurance-in-risk-management/
In March 2015, at a U.S. Senate hearing on “Cyber Insurance” it was also noted:
“Simply engaging in the process of seeking cyber insurance coverage can assist businesses to develop the correct approach to mitigate risk. Insurance can bring all relevant stakeholders in an organization together, encouraging an enterprise-wide risk management approach.”

What are the most common things not covered?
• What the most common things that insureds seem to expect would be covered but, in reality, are not covered?
• Warranties or exclusions in relating to the Insured’s failure to maintain the security of its computer network in accordance with industry standards or “best practices,” internal policies, and/or regulations. (These exclusions can defeat the purpose of the cyber insurance.)
