While the cyber insurance marketplace continues to experience rapid growth with projections of the market reaching $10B by 2025, models for underwriting cyber insurance have remained relatively unreliable due to the evolving cyber landscape. Insurers are also faced with an increasingly stringent regulatory environment with the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe. FICO delivers an empirical solution, bringing science to the challenge of managing cyber risk to help insurers grow their book of business. The FICO® Cyber Risk Score is the only score that provides a predictive, forward-looking assessment of cyber risk, leveraging a behavior-based, data-driven and empirical method to measure cyber risk.
