Gallagher UK Cyber Market Report 2026

A comprehensive analysis of the current state of the UK cyber insurance market.
< Back to hub

The cyber insurance market continues to adapt and grow, playing a pivotal role in helping businesses mitigate risks and enhance their resilience against cyber incidents.

In an ever-evolving digital landscape, staying ahead of cyber threats is critical to protecting your business. Our 2026 UK Cyber Market Report, with insights from Sam Cheshire, provides a comprehensive analysis of the current state of the UK cyber insurance market. The report examines market conditions, the evolving claims landscape, and how insurance solutions are adapting to address the increasing complexity of cyber risks.

The UK cyber security sector continues to grow, with revenue reaching £13.2 billion in 2025, a 12% year-on-year increase. As businesses implement advanced security measures to manage and mitigate risks, the insurance market is responding with reduced entry barriers and enhanced coverage options for businesses that demonstrate strong cyber security controls.

While the market remains resilient, recent high-profile cyber incidents have highlighted the devastating financial and operational impacts of cyberattacks, particularly on supply chains and critical infrastructure. Businesses are encouraged to adopt a proactive approach to risk management, leveraging advanced technologies and robust oversight to protect against emerging threats.
