Cyber Insurance Premium Estimator
Estimate your organization's annual cyber insurance premium based on revenue, industry risk profile, data sensitivity, security posture, and claims history.
Annual Revenue (USD)
Your organization's total annual revenue in US dollars.
Industry Risk Category
-- Select Industry -- Low Risk – Manufacturing, Construction, Agriculture Moderate Risk – Retail, Hospitality, Education High Risk – Technology, Professional Services, Media Very High Risk – Healthcare, Pharma, Biotech Critical Risk – Financial Services, Banking, Insurance Critical Risk – Government, Defense, Utilities
Industries handling sensitive data or critical infrastructure carry higher premiums.
Number of Sensitive Records Held
Total PII, PHI, PCI, or other sensitive records stored or processed.
Desired Coverage Limit (USD)
Maximum payout limit per policy period (e.g. $1M, $5M, $10M).
Security Controls Score (0–100)
Self-assessed score: MFA, encryption, EDR, patching, backups, training, IR plan, etc.
Prior Cyber Claims (last 3 years)
None 1 Claim 2 Claims 3 or More Claims
Prior claims significantly increase premiums due to elevated risk profile.
Deductible / Retention (USD)
Higher deductibles reduce premiums. Typical range: $5,000–$100,000.

#### Formula & Methodology
Annual Premium = Base Rate × Coverage Factor × Records Factor × Industry Multiplier × Security Multiplier × Claims Multiplier × Deductible Credit
- Base Rate = max(Revenue × 0.001, $500) — approximately 0.10% of annual revenue, floored at $500.
- Coverage Factor = (Coverage Limit / $1,000,000)0.65 — non-linear scaling reflecting that larger limits are not proportionally more expensive due to loss probability distributions.
- Records Factor = 1 + (Records / 1,000,000) × 0.5 — each additional million sensitive records adds 50% to the exposure component.
- Industry Multiplier = 0.8 (Low Risk) to 2.0 (Critical Risk) — reflects sector-specific breach frequency and severity data.
- Security Multiplier = 1.5 − (Score / 100), clamped [0.40, 1.60] — a score of 100 yields a 60% discount; a score of 0 yields a 60% loading.
- Claims Multiplier = 1.0 (no claims) to 2.0 (3+ claims) — prior losses are the strongest predictor of future losses.
- Deductible Credit = 1 − min(Deductible / Coverage, 0.40) — higher self-retention reduces insurer exposure, capped at 40% credit.
- Rate-on-Line (ROL) = Premium / Coverage × 100 — typical cyber ROL ranges from 1%–15% depending on risk profile.
