The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV) today announced the latest results of the 2018 Travelers Risk Index, which found cyber risks are the No. 2 concern across all business sizes and industries, and the percentage of businesses reporting they have been the victim of a cyber attack has doubled. Despite all of this and the fact that 52 percent of respondents believe that suffering a cyber attack is inevitable, a majority of those surveyed reported not taking adequate steps to protect themselves.
In the survey of more than 1,200 business leaders representing a range of industries and company sizes, 91 percent reported being confident their companies have implemented best practices to avoid a cyber event. But despite their confidence, the same leaders also indicated that:
“Cyber risks carry serious consequences for any business, threatening everything from revenue to operations,” said Tim Francis, Enterprise Cyber Lead at Travelers. “These findings reveal some surprising things about how companies view their cyber exposures, their relative confidence in dealing with them and the clear opportunity that exists for them to be better prepared for a cyber attack.”
Other key findings from the 2018 Travelers Risk Index include:
Over the past few years, multiple third-party reports have shown that small businesses suffer the majority of cyber attacks, yet these businesses are the most likely to report not having cyber insurance coverage. Although small businesses may be a frequent target, 74 percent of survey respondents from small businesses said they did not purchase cyber insurance.
Three-fourths of businesses surveyed admit that it is difficult to keep up with the ever-changing cyber landscape, evolving information and new digital developments. To assist businesses of all sizes, Travelers provides a range of coverage options, pre-breach tools and assessment resources, and post-breach services to help businesses prepare and recover quickly if and when a cyber event occurs.
