Regulation Has Become a Statutory Duty

The Protection of Critical Infrastructures (Computer Systems) Ordinance came into effect on 1 January 2026; the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance requires data users to take practicable steps to safeguard data.

Incident Numbers Keep Rising

HKCERT recorded 15,877 cyber security incidents in 2025 (up 27% year-on-year); the Office of the Privacy Commissioner recorded 246 data breach notifications (up 21% year-on-year).

Strengthen Controls Before Obtaining Cover

Multi-factor authentication, endpoint detection and response, offline backups, staff training — these are conditions for premium reduction and also underwriting thresholds.

AI Risk

AI Is Redrawing the Boundaries of Cyber Risk

AI can serve both as an attack vector (deepfake fraud, automated ransomware) and as an insured risk. The market's approach to AI risk is not uniform.
