The market has been experiencing rapid growth, expanding at nearly 50% annually and accounting for 7% of the global cyber insurance market. This growth is driven by increasing cyber risks associated with digital transformation, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic, and the implementation of stringent data protection regulations in various countries.
