The exponential rise of cyberattacks and ransomware has serious ramifications for businesses globally – costing them billions of dollars in losses, and threatening their long-term stability.
The imperative for business leaders and board to assess, quantify, and insure their cyber risk is clear. However, without a reliable means to measure cybersecurity risk, organizations are exposed to risks arising from customer, supplier, and partner relationships that are integrated into their ecosystems.
Moody’s supports organizations and their insurance ecosystems to analyze, quantify, and mitigate firm-wide cyber risk and exposure, as well as integrate learnings across the business to inform key strategy decisions.
A recent analysis by Moody’s Ratings reveals that 28% of collective rated debt, or $22.3 trillion, has a high or very high cyber risk exposure.
Our interactive report can help you learn more about which industries and sectors face the greatest risk of cyber threats.
In an ever-evolving digital world, Moody’s Ratings research underscores the critical importance of including cybersecurity in a comprehensive risk assessment framework alongside credit risk, operational risk, compliance, supply chain, and more.
