To stay protected, companies must ensure their cyber insurance and directors and officers (D&O) insurance policies evolve as quickly as AI itself. This article explores how AI is raising the stakes in cybersecurity, what “AI insurance” entails, and why D&O coverage is more crucial than ever in the age of AI.
The AI insurance market is evolving quickly as artificial intelligence becomes integral to business operations. In the past few years, what began as a niche idea is now gaining momentum worldwide. Below are key trends and future forecasts for AI insurance.
AI insurance policies are designed to address a range of risks that arise from using or providing artificial intelligence. While specific coverage can differ by insurer, most AI insurance covers the following types of incidents and liabilities.
Artificial intelligence (AI) insurance is a new type of business risk coverage designed to protect organizations against losses and liabilities caused by AI systems. As companies integrate AI models into products and operations, they face unique risks that traditional insurance policies don’t fully address. AI insurance fills this gap by specifically covering incidents where AI technology fails, makes errors, or behaves in unexpected ways that lead to financial harm or legal issues.
Ransomware has emerged as one of the most notorious cyber threats facing businesses of all sizes. These attacks involve malicious software that encrypts a victim’s data or system, effectively locking them out, while the attackers demand a ransom (often in cryptocurrency) for the decryption key. Given the prevalence and damaging impact of ransomware, a common question is: Does cyber insurance cover ransomware attacks?
Small and mid-sized businesses are just as vulnerable to cyber threats as larger companies – and in some cases, even more so. In recent years, nearly half of small businesses have suffered a cyber attack, a startling statistic that highlights the need for cyber insurance in the small business (SMB) sector.
One of the first questions businesses ask about cyber insurance is, “How much does it cost?” The cost of cyber insurance can vary widely. Some small businesses might pay a few hundred dollars per year, while larger firms could pay tens of thousands.
Autonomous systems and intelligent algorithms are taking on roles once reserved for humans – from driving vehicles to approving loans. But what happens when an AI makes a costly mistake? Many businesses are discovering “gray areas” where AI-related failures fall between the lines of their traditional insurance coverage.
