This assignment is my capstone report for my master’s degree in cybersecurity policy and risk management. The research question is ”
How
can InsurTech companies better develop and implement training programs to equip insurance
professionals with the necessary skills and knowledge for incident response in
the face of evolving cyber threats, leveraging industry best practices?” I have included a few drafts of my report, as well as an outline and short report.                                                         References:
