Cyber Security Resilience 2025: Taking Control in an Expanding Threat Landscape

Show Notes
This episode explores why cyber insureds are demonstrating enhanced resilience, evidenced by an overall decline in claims severity by more than 50% and a 30% drop in large loss frequency during 1H, 2025. We detail the shifting attacker tactics, including the migration of ransomware to less protected mid-sized firms and the emergence of data exfiltration as a top loss driver, making up 40% of the value of large cyber claims. Finally, we analyze how the risk landscape is broadening due to non-attack incidents, such as technical failure, supply chain dependency, and privacy litigation, which accounted for a record 28% of large claim value in 2024.
