Despite North Korea's relatively closed economy, cybersecurity insurance adoption has grown modestly, with 1,200 policies in 2026. The total premiums of $1.8 million indicate increasing awareness of cyber threats among local businesses. The average policy cost remains affordable at $1,500, though adoption levels are still low at 3.5%, reflecting limited digital infrastructure and economic constraints.
Cyber threats continue to pose risks, with 850 incidents reported in 2026, highlighting ongoing vulnerabilities. The growth of cybersecurity insurance reflects a gradual recognition of cybersecurity importance, but widespread coverage remains limited due to economic challenges and government restrictions. Enhancing digital security measures could improve resilience across sectors in the coming years.
