Cross-Sector Cyber Insurance for the Intelligent Society

As societies utilize smart technologies, the need for cybersecurity measures and cross-sector cyber insurance grows more urgent. In an intelligent society, cyber incidents can have extreme impacts. Cross-sector cyber insurance emerges as a tool to manage these risks, offering financial protection, resilience planning, and coordinated response mechanisms. However, this field faces challenges in standardizing risk assessment, ensuring regulatory compliance, and fostering collaboration across industries. As threats become sophisticated, the development of cyber insurance frameworks is essential to safeguarding both public and private sectors in a digital world. Cross-Sector Cyber Insurance for the Intelligent Society explores the role of cyber insurance in managing digital risks across sectors within a connected and data-driven society. It examines how cross-sector collaboration, regulatory frameworks, and cyber threats influence the design of cyber insurance models. This book covers topics such as cyber technology, risk assessment, and healthcare systems, and is a useful resource for engineers, business owners, policymakers, educators, medical professionals, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
