In one comic, the (right variation?) of cortosis would not only withstand a lightsaber strike, but disrupt the saber's output, temporarily disabling the saber. I only recall seeing this exteme capability in that one comic though.

I forget the names beyond cortosis, but I want to say there are 5+ materials that will at least resist a glancing blow from a lightsaber.
