Cyber Conference 2024

The Geneva Association's 2024 Cyber Conference, Enhancing the Role of Insurance in an Increasingly Hostile Cyber World, will be held on 11–12 November 2024 in New York City and hosted by AXIS.

The cyber threat landscape is growing ever more hostile. Heightened geopolitical uncertainty and further breakdown in the international rules-based order is fuelling an escalation in malicious cyberattacks by state-sponsored threat actors and illicit groups such as ransomware or hacktivist gangs. Espionage and extortion are no longer their only goals. Increasingly, perpetrators seek to disrupt economic activity and   even destroy key parts of critical national infrastructure. Continued technological advances are boosting the current and future capabilities of malevolent actors, even if they also offer hope of more robust cybersecurity defence.

Against that backdrop, this conference will explore recent shifts in the risk environment and how far re/insurance can play a bigger role in boosting society’s cyber resilience – in particular, what innovations are required to enable the sector to assume more of the rare but extreme downside cyber risks facing households and firms.
