April to May 2025 saw a record 236% spike in distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), according to a multisectoral analysis of government and private sector infrastructures. Beyond productivity and financial impact, DDoS attacks can cause the collapse of health and safety mechanisms that result in physical harm to people. The MENA Cyber Summit 2025 Annual Report highlights various sectors with vulnerabilities - the energy and manufacturing sectors are a case in point. In 2017, Triton malware targeted safety instrumented systems (SIS) in a Saudi petrochemical facility, disabling controls and risking explosions or loss of life if not contained. While the attack triggered an emergency shutdown without immediate casualties, it underscores the potential for catastrophic failures in MENA's industrial infrastructure, such as overridden emergency systems that can rapidly lead to fires or the release of toxic chemicals. Other regions have been less lucky. A 2023 study by the University of Minnesota demonstrated that hospitals in the United States hit by ransomware saw a 20-35% rise in in-hospital deaths due to delayed care and operational disruptions. Now, with sustained, worldwide, geopolitical tensions and the potential for cyberwarfare, the MENA region has become increasingly exposed to bodily injury as a result of cyber-physical attacks.

Market Squeeze: How Rising Demand is Driving Higher Political Violence Costs and Tighter Capacity

In today’s evolving political violence (PV) insurance market, a mix of global and regional pressures are tightening reinsurance capacity and pushing up premiums. Whilst new entrants are adding fresh capacity this must be weighed against the need for sustainable prices in the face of growing risks. Global events such as regional conflicts, along with political unrest and targeted infrastructure hits, are generating losses for reinsurers in active zones – and this has a knock-on effect on terms and access for GCC-based clients.
