Ep. 52 - Why Nobody’s Truly Good at Cyber Insurance Yet - with Daniel Kasper

In a market defined by uncertainty, is it possible to ever be ‘good’ at cyber insurance? Daniel Kasper thinks not—at least for now.

In this episode, Daniel Kasper, CEO of QualRisk Cyber Insurance Center, joins host Anthony Hess to explore why the cyber insurance market is still in its infancy. Drawing from examples like the ransomware epidemic of 2019-2022, Daniel explains how the lack of historical systemic event data, a fast-evolving threat landscape, and inherent unpredictability make cyber insurance uniquely challenging.


You'll learn:

1. Why a standardized framework for cyber events could revolutionize the industry
2. How to balance data-driven decisions with expert judgment in an imperfect market
3. What makes cyber insurance uniquely difficult to master in today’s evolving landscape
4. The consolidation wave reshaping the MGA sector and what it means for market players
5. Why mastering cybersecurity fundamentals is essential for insurance professionals
