Rising incidents of cybercrime, driven by increased online activity and social media use, fuel demand for comprehensive insurance policies. Companies are also seeking protection from regulatory penalties for data breaches.

The Asia-Pacific region follows, with rapid cloud adoption and growing government initiatives to combat cyber threats in emerging economies like China and India.
