Chapter 12 - Financial Impact of Cyber Security Attack

Mr. Derek Tierney:
We have not received any pre-litigation action letters yet but I will confirm that in a note. Six cases are in front of the European Court of Justice in terms of cyberattack liability in the context of criminal motivation and quantum of any costs apportioned. There will be a period of time when we see how the court rules on the matter.
