Guidelines for the development of cybersecurity economics

The digital revolution that we have been going through for at least two decades now has entailed and is entailing a whole series of changes leading up to the digital transition, which during the pandemic phase of Covid-19, but also after it, has experienced and is experiencing a strong acceleration. All these changes have entailed a transfer from the real world to the virtual world of a whole series of data and information that make their way around the world on a daily basis via the network. These data and information now constitute the vast majority (not to say almost all) of those used and dissemi- nated worldwide. It is tautological that this mass of data and information must be protected and safeguarded, hence other sectors have developed, such as cybersecurity, and within it various facets have been identified, going so far as to activate insurance policies on cyber risks, something that was unthinkable a few years ago.
