Cyber insurance is often misunderstood. From confusion around underwriting and coverage to myths about payouts and incident response, many organizations struggle to grasp where insurance fits into their cybersecurity program—and what it actually protects.
Join Daniel Woods, Principal Security Researcher at Coalition, and Matt Lewis, Chief Security Officer at Field Effect, for a practical conversation that clarifies the cyber insurance process, highlights common missteps, and explains how insurers evaluate your security posture. You’ll walk away with a clearer view of what cyber insurance does (and doesn’t) do—and what that means for your business.
In this session, we cover:
- How underwriters assess risk and the math behind their decisions
- How coverage gaps impact claims
- The difference between technical & contractual validations
- Risk selection vs. reduction—and how security tools influence both
