This report is designed to bridge the gap between perception and reality when it comes to cyber risk, providing boards with the evidence to test assumptions, prioritise investments, and benchmark resilience.
Cyber risk is no longer a distant possibility. It is now a routine test of leadership, cash flow, and governance. Every incident carries financial, operational, and reputational consequences - and boards are being judged on their readiness.
The report combines two unique vantage points:
-
Over 4,650 cyber claims across 90 countries, providing global boardroom insights to reveal where confidence diverges from reality and what that gap is costing.
-
Governance insights from WTW's Global Directors and Officers Survey, revealing how leaders perceive and prioritize those risks.
The contrast is clear: confidence is high, but preparedness often lags. That gap is where losses, fines, and shareholder disputes emerge.
