Market Dynamics

Drivers

Rising cyber-attacks and Cyber Insurance Demand in Healthcare Sector

The frequency of cyber-attacks around the world has risen in several ways, with a significant number of cases being documented about personal data breaches, such as email addresses, social security numbers, credit card numbers, passwords, and other sensitive details. The healthcare sector, which is increasingly changing itself technologically, is also largely exposed to such risks with cyber-attacks that lead to both financial losses and data protection compromise. In addition, these cyber threats have a variety of consequences for public safety, economic growth, and public safety. In addition, there has been increased awareness of the dangers of business interruption (BI) and associated insurance products in recent years. As a result, an increase in the number of cyber-attacks and security breaches across the sector drives the growth of cyber insurance premiums in the market.

Rise in Legislations Concerning Cybersecurity Highly Impacting the Market

Numerous steps have been taken by government regulatory bodies and law enforcement authorities worldwide to tighten data security and privacy. The rise of data privacy laws in the US, such as the Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and the Health Insurance Portability and Transparency Act (HIPAA), the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the European Union (EU) are persuading insurance companies to concentrate on cyber insurance initiatives. Increasing digitization has contributed to a tremendous rise in the rate of cyberattacks during the pandemic of COVID-19. It is also expected that complex governance standards and data protection legislation will drive the adoption of the cyber insurance industry in the future.

Restraint

Soaring cyber insurance costs

The lack of standardized policies is expected to discourage enterprises from purchasing cyber insurance policies, which can be a restrictive factor in the development of the cyber insurance industry. One of the major factors hindering the growth of the cyber insurance industry is the higher cost of cyber insurance. Owing to the ransomware attacks of the last two to three years, insurance firms have had to pay out costly claims. And if the ransom amount is not covered by the cyber insurance providers, the recovery cost is high for the compromised device. The coverage rates are raised by cyber insurance providers to cover the extra costs related to the added facilities, such as hacker negotiation and data recovery assistance during a ransomware attack. As companies are more focused on increasing cyber protection rather than paying the insurance premium, the rising costs of cyber insurance have slowed down the adoption of the policy.
