I was fortunate enough to work with Jeff a couple of years ago while he was still at AT&T. He was an excellent QSA and I quickly learned to value his opinion on several fronts in the realm of IT security. I believe he is on point in this article concerning cyber insurance. There is significant due diligence that must be performed beyond the potential check box of insurance and/or liability diversion. Cyber insurance certainly has value, especially in terms of cost off-sets for public relations needs associated with a breach, but it is not a magic bullet. It should be considered one tool in the cyber security tool box.
