Nowadays, cyber risks and crimes are becoming way too common to any kind of business that invest and take advantage of the cutting-edge technologies related to the use of Internet, in order to grow bigger. Of course, there has been a great evolvement of the cyber defending services and mechanisms, but this is not enough. Various sectors of businesses, such as the maritime, which is our use case, have been facing physical attacks (e.g., piracy), but during the past few years and the technological growth of their equipment, they are endangered due to cyber-related threats and vulnerabilities. SECONDO, a European funding research project, aims to highlight a necessary and innovative approach of risk management and assessment, developing a platform of useful tools, that paves the way of a better understanding of Cyber Insurance and its concepts.
