Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to analyze the evolution of scientific literature regarding cyber risk mitigation and cyber insurance. Despite the dynamically increasing number of publications in this field, there is a clear lack of systematic studies in the literature reflecting the changes occurring in scientific research in response to legal, regulatory, and technological shifts. This study fills this gap, conducted using the Scopus database and science mapping methods with the use of SciMAT software. As part of the analysis, the results of preliminary bibliometric mapping - including publication performance and citation metrics are presented, followed by the main mapping using strategic diagrams and thematic networks. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of the thematic evolution of the literature over consecutive time periods, enabling the identification of emerging and declining research trends. The results confirm a dynamic increase in publishing activity in the area of cyber risks and cyber insurance and indicate the continuous formation and diversification of research trends, which demonstrates the growing importance of this issue both in academia and business practice.
