The new Gen AI cyber insurance coverage by AXA XL tackles several risks. One of the key concerns is data poisoning, where attackers manipulate training data, potentially leading to costly data cleanup and litigation.
Additionally, the endorsement covers usage rights infringement, such as the negligent use of copyrighted materials or software licences in machine learning applications.
AXA XL cyber global chief underwriting officer “Looking to improve efficiency, improve customer experience, and so much more, more companies are investing in developing their own Generative AI to unlock new possibilities.
“They must also be mindful of the risks that come with it, such as potential misuse, compliance issues, and the need for robust safeguards to ensure responsible and secure deployment.”

This is an area of increasing concern as governments worldwide begin to scrutinise AI technologies more closely.
The Gen AI coverage is available as an endorsement to AXA XL’s CyberRiskConnect policy, which is accessible to clients in the US and Canada, the UK and Lloyd’s market, as well as Europe and Asia.
