Modeling Cyber-Insurance: Towards a Unifying Framework
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a comprehensive formal framework to classify all market models of cyber-insurance we are aware of. The framework features a common terminology and deals with the specific properties of cyber-risk in a unified way: interdependent security, correlated risk, and information asymmetries. A survey of existing models, tabulated according to our framework, reveals a discrepancy between informal arguments in favor of cyber-insurance as a tool to align incentives for better network security, and analytical results questioning the viability of a market for cyber-insurance. Using our framework, we show which parameters should be considered and endogenized in future models to close this gap.

Cyber insurance can be an effective instrument to transfer cyber risk and complement the benefits from technological controls that guard the IS (information and network) assets in organizations. This research attempts to identify the factors that could explain the proclivity of adoption of cyber insurance in managing cyber risk of an organization. Grounded on the context based TOE framework of ...
متن کاملCyber-Insurance: Copula Pricing Framework and Implication for Risk Management
In recent years there has been a growing stream of research focusing on cyber-insurance. Risk transference with insurance has been suggested by both practitioners and academics to absorb losses caused by security breaches as well as to supplement the existing set of security tools to manage IT security residual risk after IT security investments are made. In this paper, we investigate pricing o...
متن کاملTowards Semantically Integrated Models and Tools for Cyber-Physical Systems Design
We describe an approach to the model-based engineering of embedded and cyber-physical systems, based on the semantic integration of diverse discipline-specific notations and tools. Using the example of a small unmanned aerial vehicle, we explain the need for multiple notations and collaborative modelling. Learning from experience with binary co-modelling based on a bespoke operational semantics...
متن کاملDesign Specification of Cyber-Physical Systems: Towards a Domain-Specific Modeling Language based on Simulink, Eclipse Modeling Framework, and Giotto
In this paper, we propose a domain-specific modeling language for specifying the design of cyber-physical systems. The proposed domain-specific modeling language can capture the control, computing, and communication aspects of a cyber-physical system design in an integrated manner. The concrete syntax of the proposed domainspecific modeling language has been implemented as an extension of stand...
