Episode Notes
In this episode of the new (first!) episode of the Human-Centered Research Series on the Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast, host Sean Martin and co-host Julie Haney from the Human Centered Cybersecurity program at NIST, chat with Dr. Jason Nurse, a reader in cybersecurity at the University of Kent in the UK. The discussion revolves around the role of cyber insurance in organizational risk management.
Jason elucidates cyber insurance’s function as a residual risk mitigation tool when dealing with cyber attacks, helping businesses recover and connect with response teams. They discuss how cyber insurance can incentivize better security practices but highlight challenges related to assessing security postures across diverse businesses. While ransomware features heavily in discussions of cyber risks, Jason points out that insurers don't always encourage ransom payments. Julie raises the issue of accessibility of cyber insurance for small businesses and suggests insurers offer 'pre-breach services'.
Sean, Julie, and Jason debate the role of human behavior in cyber risk, and how it affects organizations and insurance policies. They underscore the value of research in enhancing security practices and conclude by pondering ways to bridge the gap between academic research and practical implementation in cybersecurity.
