Cybersecurity insurance is an insurance service that assists in reimbursing the financial losses brought on by cyber events and incidents. Organizations can obtain cybersecurity insurance as a way to help lower the financial risks involved with conducting business online. The insurance contract transfers part of the risk to the insurer in return for a monthly or quarterly payment.
The main types of insurance in cybersecurity insurance are packaged and stand-alone. The packages are used in an insurance policy that protects the policyholder against losses to their own losses. Insurance that offers a number of different coverages in combination usually refers to a policy offering both general liability and property insurance. The different insurance coverages include data breaches and cyber liability, which involve several components such as solutions and services. The different organization sizes include large enterprises and small and medium enterprises (SMEs). The various end users include technology providers and insurance providers.

The increase in data security breaches is a key factor propelling the growth of the cybersecurity insurance market in the coming years. A data breach occurs when information is extracted from a system without the owner's knowledge or consent. Weak and fraudulent identification is one of the most common and easily exploited causes of data breaches. These incidents are becoming more frequent and severe than ever before. As data breaches and other cybercrimes become increasingly common, companies are investing in cyber insurance to mitigate the costs associated with procuring, restoring, and recreating data. For example, in May 2024, the Information Commissioner's Office, a UK-based government agency, reported that over 3,000 cyber breaches were recorded in 2023, with the finance sector representing 22% of the incidents, followed by retail at 18% and education at 11%. Consequently, the rising incidence of data security breaches is driving the demand for growth in the cybersecurity insurance market.
The growing number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices is anticipated to enhance the growth of the cybersecurity insurance market in the future. IoT devices are nonstandard computing devices that can wirelessly connect to a network and provide data. These devices generate significant amounts of data, requiring efficient management. As the IoT ecosystem expands, the related cybersecurity risks and potential financial implications become increasingly evident, encouraging organizations to pursue insurance coverage as a proactive risk management approach. For instance, in September 2024, IOT Analytics, a Germany-based market insights firm, reported that by the end of 2023, there were around 16.6 billion connected IoT devices, marking a 15% increase from 2022. This figure is expected to grow by 13% to reach 18.8 billion by the end of 2024, despite challenges such as cautious enterprise spending, high inflation, and geopolitical tensions. Therefore, the rising number of IoT devices is driving the growth of the cybersecurity insurance market.
Strategic partnerships and collaborations have become a significant trend in the cybersecurity insurance market. Leading companies in the cybersecurity insurance sector are concentrating on forming partnerships to bolster their market position. For example, in July 2024, Resilience, a U.S.-based firm, partnered with Lloyd to broaden its cyber insurance offerings. This collaboration aims to raise the cyber insurance limits for U.S. clients to $20 million, representing a substantial effort to enhance coverage in light of increasing cyber threats. This partnership is a crucial step in addressing the growing complexity and frequency of cyber incidents, offering businesses more robust protection against potential losses.
In September 2024, Commvault, a U.S.-based data management software company, acquired Clumino for $47 million. This acquisition is intended to enhance Commvault's data protection offerings, providing improved security and recovery options for businesses that utilize cloud infrastructure. Clumino is a U.S.-based company that specializes in delivering a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform centered on enterprise backup solutions.
