Energy companies are becoming increasingly concerned about the impact of cyber-attacks on their operations, but many are still struggling to get to grips with the risks, a new survey reveals.
The report, by the global insurance and risk management group Marsh, Could Energy Industry Dynamics Be Creating an Impending Cyber Storm?, shows that more than one in four respondents were aware that their company had been hit by a damaging cyber attack in the last year, while more than three quarters of respondents (76%) were worried about cyber attacks interrupting their business operations, with a similar proportion (77%) preparing to increase the amount they invest in managing cyber risks.
