Security Risk Models for Cyber Insurance

"Cyber security is a multidisciplinary subject involving, IT, systems and security engineering. While in dealing with and protection against cyber risks other disciplines including decision and statistical analysis, psychology, risk management and insurance are also involved. This broad spectrum of fields of science is also reflected in the number of contributors to this edited collection of research findings. Originally a two-year research funded by the EU, the book covers in six chapters, cyber security research findings, simulated models as well as risk protection mechanism.

Many challenging issues in cyber risks which are not generally well understood by many businesses are discussed in this volume. A novelty of this book is in discussing behavioural aspects of cyber risks in chapter three.

The methodology and modelling discussed in this book lends much to system and security engineering, decision analysis and risk management using flow charts [. . .]. This book is not a textbook written for any particular curriculum, but can be supplementary material for IT security, risk research and insurance applications."
