Cyber insurance is no longer just a question of comparing annual premiums or coverage limits. In practice, it now combines several layers of service: preventing an attack, mobilizing an incident-response team, restoring systems, and compensating for business interruption losses. On the French market, Stoïk, Dattak and Hiscox illustrate three distinct ways of structuring that offer.
Stoïk and Dattak represent a newer generation of cyber insurers built around a more operational model, while Hiscox reflects a more established insurance approach. The comparison between the three highlights how cyber risk coverage has evolved from a purely financial product into a broader service package centered on prevention, response and recovery.
The article underscores that the real value of a cyber policy can no longer be assessed solely through the size of the guarantee or the cost of the policy. What matters now is the insurer’s ability to help a company avoid an attack, react quickly if one occurs, restore critical systems and absorb the resulting operational losses.
