Ransomware attacks have seen a nearly 500% increase in 2020 and account for one out of four cybersecurity cases. According to Fitch Ratings, US direct written premiums to insurers against cyber risks rose by about 22% in 2020 to almost $3 billion, and the direct loss ratio for standalone cyber risks rose to 73% in 2020 - the highest level recorded in the six years since data have been available.

In this we will discuss:
• The uptick in ransomware cyberattacks to the financial services industry.
• Regulatory and compliance concerns that FSIs face that complicate their technology strategy.
• How to assess your organization’s security score.
