CYBER INSURANCE AS RISK MANAGEMENT: A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Öz

Cyber insurance has attracted growing scholarly attention as organizations increasingly rely on digital infrastructures and face escalating cyber risks. Despite this growth, the intellectual structure and thematic evolution of the literature remain fragmented across disciplinary boundaries. This study maps the core themes, relational structure, and temporal development of cyber insurance research using bibliometric methods. Drawing on publications indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, bibliographic data were analyzed using keyword co-occurrence, network visualization, density mapping, and overlay visualization. The analysis addresses three research questions concerning (i) how cyber insurance is positioned relative to risk management, cybersecurity, and cyber risk, (ii) the thematic structure and connectivity of the field, and (iii) how key themes have evolved over time. The results reveal a compact thematic core centered on cyber insurance and risk management, indicating a predominantly governance- and management-oriented framing. Cybersecurity and cyber risk emerge as important but less integrated themes, suggesting limited conceptual convergence between technical security considerations and insurance analytics. Temporal evidence based on average publication year further shows that cyber insurance and risk management consolidated earlier, while cybersecurity and cyber risk terminology gained prominence later. Overall, the findings portray an evolving interdisciplinary field and highlight opportunities to strengthen integration between cybersecurity measurement, cyber risk analytics, and insurance research.
