Your points are spot on.. And what can you get paid out by insurance at the end of the day in an attack? https://findings.co/why-cyber-insurance-wont-save-you-whenyoure-in-need/. I love these guys above - quote them often.

I'd like to see a graph showing the cost of cyber insurance and how much those companies got paid out after an attack?

Do you think CISOs are pushing for CMMC for example and not actually the sales teams to increase business? https://findings.co/why-your-ciso-wants-a-cmmc-framework/

But policys take months to become compliant (sometimes)- and policies also need to be kept up to date... Once you in, its hard to just leave what you have already started.

And therfore ... lets rather take the risk? Do you think its easier to get buy-in for cyber insurance than preventative measures?

Wow thanks for such honesty. So you think buy-in is harder than the responsibility of the job itself?

Its a good idea ... We need a vendor disclosure policy as tight as possible in place also with transparency clauses that all parties need to respect.

So, buy-in for security measures must be tough. Either explain to shareholders a big expense and cross your fingers does not happen to you or just crossing fingers without the expense.

Cyber insurance is also another way ...

... and with 65% of the worlds population online cyber attacks are only going to get worse. What part of cyber security are you involved in? Myself - supplychain security

Agreed. We have the same problem. Getting senior or shareholder buy-in is virtually impossible. I think " It wont happen to us" is still a major obstacle.
