In the report, Risk Nexus: Overcome by cyber risks? Economic benefits and costs of alternate cyber futures, the Atlantic Council's Brent Scowcroft Center on International Security, in collaboration with Zurich Insurance Group and University of Denver's Pardee Center on International Futures, uses economic modeling tools to understand, for the first time, how the costs and benefits from ICT might affect global gross domestic product (GDP) over time. The report also examined potential alternate cyber futures, driven either by governments vs. non-state actors, or strong cyber defenses and booming technologies vs. mounting risks and attacks.
