The companies are increasingly aware of the financial burden to be borne in case of a security breach and want to insure themselves against any possible exposure. The migration to cloud services has increased data vulnerability to malware attacks, which have increased the importance of cyber insurance policies. The increasing frequency of breach attempts into small-scale as well as large enterprises has also influenced significant adoption of cyber security insurance policies. The rising cyber insurance demand among companies from emerging economies would further provide key vendors with new opportunities for business expansion over the forecast period.
