The presentation is linked to an article published in the FERMA Newsletter 60 (http://bit.ly/VHCCZR). The New Data Protection Regulation is expected to boost demand for cyber insurance, but it is literally impossible to prevent some type of cyber attack like a Zero Day attack. If there is no coverage because of an exclusion, then what would be the use of such a policy? The ability of an organisation to be agile and react rapidly to a new IT threat should be at the core of the wording and pricing assessment of a cyber-policy.
