After scrutinizing technical, legal, financial, and actuarial aspects of cyber risk, a new approach for modelling cyber risk using marked point processes is proposed. Key covariates, required to model frequency and severity of cyber claims, are identified. The presented framework explicitly...

Many insurers have started to underwrite cyber in recent years. In parallel, they developed their first actuarial models to cope with this new type of risk. On the portfolio level, two major challenges hereby are the adequate modelling of the dependence structure among cyber losses and the lack...
