Back in 2012, the World Economic Forum launched a Partnership for Cyber Resilience, in response to the growing importance of cyber security. It now counts over 100 organisations involved in the partnership. Among these is WISER’s partner, the leading global provider of risk management, insurance and reinsurance brokerage, Aon.
The WEF partnership aims at raising awareness of cyber risks and building commitment addressing the need for more rigorous approaches to cyber risk mitigation.
The WEF initiative project is currently in its third phase, which aims to propose a cyber assessment framework.
Building on the previous work and the cyber risk framework developed within the community, the initiative focuses on identifying critical risks to organisations and potential steps to cyber risk quantification models.
