"How analytics and data science can predict a forward-looking security posture”

One of the key challenges the cyber industry faces today is how to confidently measure and quantify an organization’s cyber security risk. For breach insurers, it is particularly important to quantify cyber risk with ever evolving landscape of changing technology and potential human behavioural factors. This discussion will provide insight into how analytics and data science can predict a forward-looking security posture of an enterprise and it’s potential for suffering a data breach by inferring organizational behaviours from externally-observable network conditions and correlating these with recent breach events. You will also learn how the  insurance ecosystem can benefit from predictive and empirically-derived metrics to quantify and mitigate on going cyber risk for its insureds.
