AI has entered the top five business risks across short, medium and long-term horizons, but new FERMA research suggests organisations are struggling to build the governance and capabilities needed to keep pace.
Businesses are making investment decisions over three-to-five-year horizons while insurance remains largely tied to an annual cycle. FERMA is calling for longer-term relationships with insurers and greater clarity over how insurance will respond to AI.
A routine cyber evaluation at the UK AI Security Institute resulted in autonomous agents taking unsanctioned action against real people and organisations, exposing gaps in internet controls, monitoring and test design.
As farming becomes increasingly digitised, cyber risk is emerging as one of the most under-appreciated threats facing the sector. From automated machinery and connected supply chains to underinsurance and climate volatility, agriculture is evolving into a complex risk environment that challenges traditional assumptions about protection and resilience.
Although believing that artificial intelligence is ‘an insurable exposure’, explicit coverage is still hard to find as use cases around the technology continue to evolve and differ vastly between businesses, says underwriting director
Jen Modi, regional sales director at Barrier Networks, explores how legacy technology is increasing cyber and operational risk across critical national infrastructure, and what organisations can do to modernise without disrupting essential services.
The SR:500 Emerging Risks survey reveals a landscape dominated by accelerating and interconnected threats. Against this backdrop, risk management must be embedded earlier in decision making to strengthen resilience.
Data centres are at the heart of the digital economy, but rapid growth, energy constraints and evolving risks are testing their resilience. At an SR:500 event in partnership with FM, experts discussed the challenges facing the sector and how risk managers are responding.
Workplace healthcare is becoming a strategic pressure point, as employees’ rising demands plus costly medical advances are pushing employers to rethink how far benefits should go and what they mean for resilience.
As regulatory frameworks such as NIS2, DORA and the EU AI Act begin to overlap, organisations face mounting pressure to rethink how governance, risk and compliance operates in practice. Riskonnect’s Sherry Dillon explains why traditional compliance approaches are no longer enough.
Four risk experts explore how organisations can quantify risk against business objectives, demonstrate the return on investment of risk management and use AI and modern GRC tools to support better strategic decisions, while retaining the human judgement needed to turn data into meaningful insight.
