ESET Chief Security Evangelist Tony Anscombe to co-chair NetDiligence Cyber Risk Summit (May 19-20, San Diego).
Session to explore quantum computing, cloud infrastructure, APIs, IAM systems, and software supply chain risks.
Panel moderated by David Chavez (Intact Insurance) with Anthony Howley (Amwins), Lisa Phillips (Marsh), and Zachary Reichert (LevelBlue).
Topics include cryptographic collapse risk from quantum computing, cloud concentration, and shared infrastructure risk.
ESET has partnerships with Amwins and Patriot Growth Insurance Services for cyber insurance.
ESET has 30 years of cybersecurity industry experience.
“While AI continues to dominate industry conversations, the next wave of cyber risk extends far beyond AI alone,” said Anscombe. “Technologies such as quantum computing, cloud infrastructure, APIs, IAM systems, and software supply chains are creating deeply interconnected risks that are increasingly difficult to predict and insure. Organizations and insurers alike must begin preparing now for the systemic challenges these technologies may introduce.”
Moderated by David Chavez of Intact Insurance, the panel will also feature Anthony Howley of Amwins, Lisa Phillips of Marsh, and Zachary Reichert of LevelBlue. Topics will include cryptographic collapse risk associated with quantum computing, cloud concentration and shared infrastructure risk. Panelists will also discuss the structural challenges that make these risks difficult to assess, including rapid adoption, limited historical loss data, delayed loss manifestation, and systemic aggregation potential.
ESET has made significant investments in the cyber risk and insurance space through partnerships with leading insurance distributors, including Amwins and Patriot Growth Insurance Services. These collaborations help bridge the gap between cyber insurance requirements and organizations' cybersecurity postures by combining cyber risk assessments, insurance expertise, and advanced security controls such as managed detection and response (MDR). By working closely with partners, ESET enables businesses to better understand their risk and improve their ability to qualify for coverage.
