As AI Risks Grow, Insurers Split on Covering the Damage
Summary
Insurers are divided on how to handle coverage for artificial intelligence-related risks. Some companies are developing specialized policies for agentic AI, while others are quietly excluding such coverage, potentially leaving enterprises unaware of their exposure.
IFF Assessment
The division among insurers and the potential for enterprises to be unaware of their AI risk exposure represents a growing challenge for defenders.

Defenders should be aware that cyber insurance policies may not cover incidents stemming from AI, and it's crucial to understand the specific exclusions and limitations of their coverage.
