The Skeptical Analyst: Cyber Contemplations

Not Every Risk is Insurable

Barry Rabkin Season 1 Episode 6

I discuss why cyber risk is not insurable considering 6 factors:

1. Large number of exposure units;
2. Accidental / Random and unintentional loss;
3. Determinable and measurable loss;
4. No (ruinous) catastrophic loss;
6. Economically feasible premium.

If there is only one "NO", then the risk (cyber risk in this case) is not insurable.
