Cyber risks have evolved to the point of being a daily issue that must be managed by policyholders large and small. The threat vectors have developed far beyond where they were when cyber insurance policies were introduced to not just technology companies, but to policyholders across the spectrum. At the same time, regulations and case law surrounding liability for data collection and use, as well as for the fall-out from cyber breaches, has become increasingly robust.
