2026 Cyber Insurance Trends Report: What's Changed and What You Need to Know

Huntress survey: CIRCIA reporting mandates now live, BEC claims exceed ransomware, exfiltration-heavy attacks cost twice as much, premiums rising.

Huntress's 2026 cyber insurance trends report, based on its own survey, finds 79% of respondents carry cyber insurance while 58% report shrinking coverage over five years. New CIRCIA federal reporting mandates and EU NIS2 requirements are reshaping policies, business email compromise now drives more claims than ransomware, and data exfiltration has replaced encryption as the dominant ransomware tactic at roughly twice the cost. After three years of declining premiums, rates are climbing again, and most businesses now refuse to pay ransoms.

12 Best CASB Solutions Compared (2026): Features & Pricing

GBHackers' 2026 buyer's guide compares 12 CASB-capable vendors, arguing standalone CASB pricing has dissolved into per-user SSE subscriptions.

The article evaluates twelve CASB-capable platforms including Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps, Palo Alto Networks' Prisma Access CASB, Netskope, iboss, Forcepoint ONE (Bitglass), Trend Micro Cloud App Security, and Skyhigh Security. It frames purchasing around SSE bundle economics, noting Defender for Cloud Apps ships inside Microsoft 365 E5 while Netskope, Zscaler, and Skyhigh price CASB into per-user SSE tiers. It also flags Saviynt, common on legacy roundups, as an IGA vendor rather than a true CASB.

Building a ransomware decision tree before the call comes in

Arctic Wolf's IR VP urges pre-deciding ransomware response choices on containment, negotiation authority, law enforcement engagement, and crisis communications.

A Help Net Security video features Kerri Shafer-Page, VP of Incident Response at Arctic Wolf, walking through a ransomware decision tree. She recommends settling four decision areas in advance: containment, extortion negotiation limits, law enforcement involvement, and communications. She frames paying as a business decision that can cost less than insurance retention and renewal hikes, and notes agencies may know the threat actor and help avoid sanctions issues.

AI adoption brings new security headaches for already stretched CISOs

Proofpoint's 2026 Voice of the CISO report finds 79% of CISOs must manage AI-related risks without added resources or expertise.

Proofpoint's 2026 Voice of the CISO report says AI governance is expanding CISO responsibilities faster than resources, with 79% expected to manage AI-related risks without proportional support. Seventy-eight percent of CISOs consider GenAI a security risk, chiefly customer data loss through public AI platforms, and 61% expect a targeted attack within 12 months, down from 76% in 2025. Human risk remains the top vulnerability for 79% of respondents, and 93% of organizations with material data loss said departing employees played a role. Cloud account takeover now tops perceived threats, while email fraud, ransomware and malware declined in the rankings.

Proofpoint 2026 Voice of the CISO Report Finds Cyber Resilience Improving, While AI Expands the CISO Mandate

Proofpoint's 2026 survey of 1,600 CISOs finds improving cyber resilience, rising human risk, and expanding AI responsibilities without added resources.

Proofpoint released its 2026 Voice of the CISO report, a Censuswide-conducted survey of 1,600 CISOs across 16 countries fielded in May 2026. Expected material cyberattacks fell from 76% to 61% year over year and material data loss declined from 66% to 53%, but 79% of CISOs now identify human risk as their biggest vulnerability and GenAI security concerns jumped 18 points to 78%. The report also finds 79% of CISOs expect to manage AI-related risks without proportional resources, and 85% say boards are evaluating cyber risk through a commercial lens.

Shadow AI in Financial Services | Risk & Governance

Huntress warns financial services firms that unsanctioned 'Shadow AI' tool use creates data leakage and compliance risks faster than governance controls can keep pace.

Huntress argues Shadow AI — employee use of unapproved AI tools such as ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot — is spreading across financial services faster than visibility and controls. Uploading regulated customer data into public generative models risks breaches of client confidentiality, data protection rules, and market conduct obligations. The piece recommends secure web gateways, DNS filtering, DLP, application allowlisting, and corporate SSO/MFA for approved tools rather than outright bans, which can push usage onto personal devices.

AI will not fix a governance problem in your camera estate

Hikvision EMEA security director argues camera estates need governance, recovery controls, and secure-by-default settings rather than AI fixes.

Rob Janssens, EMEA Cyber Security Director at Hikvision Europe, discusses securing surveillance camera estates whose lifecycles outlive their installers, leaving lost documentation and admin credentials. He advocates secure-by-default settings such as mandatory password activation, login-failure monitoring, IP filtering, and controlled SSH access, and argues customers should be able to recover control without the original integrator. He distinguishes secure-by-design from secure-by-default, recommends VPNs and network segmentation over disabling controls, and weighs European requirements like source code escrow and country-of-origin rules.
