I've been helping clients with Cyber insurance for years but there is always more to learn from Ryan Smith. We've teamed up on complex placements and he adds real value in Fortside's sales process by helping us uncover unique exposures so we can properly address them with our markets. I'm excited he's taking the next steps to help more agencies.

I have had the pleasure of working with Ryan for several years. His extensive knowledge in Cyber security has helped me to communicate and share knowledge around complex topics with my clients.

I highly recommend Ryan’s guidance especially when working with clients who need more than just a quote; Ryan helped me explain to my clients what their real exposures are in understandable manner.

I have referred Ryan to several close contacts because I am fully confident in his expertise and integrity. He stands out as one of the most well-rounded and balanced professionals I know. Beyond his ability to engage in meaningful conversation, Ryan has a unique talent for simplifying complex cyber risks into straightforward, actionable insights.

I don’t think it’s a secret that most businesses and people are ill-prepared with their cyber exposures. There is a tremendous amount of opportunity in the space for professionals to educate and help resolve these problems. I know Ryan has been studying and working deeply in this discipline for a while now. His experience, intellect, and personality are why I continue to recommend people talk to him!
