In this article: The Ironic Vulnerability: Why Insurers Are Prime Targets for Cyber Attacks, Matthew Geyman explores how insurers, tasked with helping others mitigate cyber risks, have become high-profile targets themselves. With vast stores of sensitive data, insurers face growing threats from cybercriminals and even state actors, who exploit weaknesses in outdated systems and slow cybersecurity adoption. High-profile breaches have underscored the industry's vulnerabilities, with impacts ranging from costly ransoms and business interruptions to severe reputational damage. To address this, Geyman argues, insurers must prioritise cybersecurity by implementing multi-factor authentication, AI-driven threat detection, and robust data management practices.
