In the aftermath of a cyber event, the most accurate and actionable risk data comes not from assessments or scans, but from the real evidence revealed through investigation and recovery efforts.
This session explores how insurance practitioners can and should leverage these insights to bridge the gap between underwriting assumptions, claims realities, and long-term cyber resilience. By analyzing validated data such as control performance, response timelines, and recovery outcomes, insurers and policyholders can turn lessons learned into measurable risk improvement.
Participants will discover how to close the feedback loop between cyber events and future risk decisions, enhancing pricing accuracy, coverage design, and overall cyber readiness.
Elissa brings a rare, insider’s clarity on what practitioners actually need to understand, what truly moves the needle, and how to separate actionable IR insights from marketing fluff. With a career spent on both sides of the table, she uniquely understands how IR evidence should inform underwriting assumptions, policy design, and systemic risk assessment.
