Key Differences in Cyber Insurance

How You Get a Quote

Kinro collects revenue, record counts, payment handling, data types and security controls such as MFA and backups before matching a business to a carrier, often reviewing cyber alongside E&O, BOP and D&O. TechInsurance instead lets you request quotes online through a short application, with a certificate of insurance typically available the same day you buy a policy. 4 7

Published Pricing

Kinro's page does not publish cyber premiums; it lists current cyber limits as an input carriers need to quote, not a published figure. TechInsurance instead reports a median cost from its own book of business.

TechInsurance says its cyber liability policyholders pay a median of $129 per month, or about $1,552 a year, based on its own customer data, with the exact premium depending on employee count, data volume, claims history, deductible and coverage limits. 7Company-reported. Cyber liability product page cost section; a company-reported median from TechInsurance's own book of business, not a published rate table.

What Each Explicitly Excludes

Kinro's page does not describe specific exclusions for this line. TechInsurance instead names specific exclusions: professional negligence claims unrelated to a breach, physical damage to electronic devices, and data loss from physical hardware damage, pointing buyers to errors and omissions or a BOP for those gaps. 4 7

What to Confirm in Cyber Insurance Quotes

  • Ask TechInsurance which specific carrier is quoting your policy, since it says it returns quotes from multiple carriers rather than naming one insurer upfront. 7
  • Ask Kinro which carrier it is placing your account with. 4
  • Ask TechInsurance how your business's employee count, data volume and claims history moved your quote relative to its published median. 7
  • Ask Kinro which of your security controls affected the carrier's appetite for your account. 4
