# Are nations ready to be the cybersecurity insurers of last resort?

**[CSO Online](https://daily.dev/sources/csoonline)** · 5 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Experts are questioning whether the UK government's £1.5 billion loan guarantee to Jaguar Land Rover following a major cyberattack sets a dangerous precedent. Ciaran Martin of the Cyber Monitoring Center argues that while government intervention may sometimes be warranted, it should be guided by a clear framework rather than ad hoc decisions. Analysts warn that implicit government safety nets could incentivize underinvestment in security and make critical organizations prime targets for cybercriminals. The broader debate centers on the growing cyber insurance protection gap and whether a structured public-private partnership is needed to manage catastrophic cyber risk at a national scale.
