Residual Risk Is Why Insurance Exists

Zusammenfassung

Security reduces risk. It never eliminates it. The gap between what controls can achieve and what remains is residual risk — the entire reason cyber insurance exists. And it is the most under-discussed concept in the industry.

There is a concept that sits at the exact intersection of cybersecurity and insurance. It explains why the two disciplines need each other, why their practitioners talk past each other, and why the cyber insurance market is simultaneously growing and struggling.That concept is residual risk — the risk that remains after all controls are applied.
