How we rank
Modern cyber insurance is more than a payout after a breach. The strongest policies bundle proactive security services: vulnerability scanning, managed detection and response, phishing simulation, incident response retainers. These reduce the chance you ever file a claim.
Ryskly scores every product on 15 such services, each weighted by its impact on breach probability; prevention-heavy services like vulnerability scanning, MDR/EDR and incident response carry the most weight. A company's ranking is the average across all of its listed products, and maps to a grade from S (best-in-class) down to F (indemnity only, no proactive services). The full framework is described in our rating methodology.
The ranking is a yearly snapshot: the 2026 edition was computed in October 2026 from the live Ryskly product database and stays frozen, so a shared link always shows the same standings. Indicative maximum limits are quoted where insurers publish them; most large carriers agree bespoke limits per risk.
