The chapter authored by Beeson, "Investment in Cyber Insurance," explains:
"A number of high-profile corporate data breaches, mainly in the US retail sector over the past two years, have led rapidly to a major change in enterprise cybersecurity strategy, " said Beeson in the chapter, "Cyber insurance has a broader role to play than simply reimbursing costs associated with a loss. Accepting risk means adopting an approach that seeks to mitigate and build enterprise resilience."
