Specialty insurance

Technology & IT businesses

Address what happens when your product, service or network fails to perform.

Who we can help

A closer look at your exposure.

Software developers, SaaS providers, IT consultants, managed service providers and technology businesses.

A service failure can create financial losses for a customer even without physical damage. Technology errors and omissions, cyber incidents and contract commitments should be considered together.

What to discuss with your broker

Technology E&O

Discuss alleged mistakes, service failures and financial loss arising from your professional services.

Cyber & privacy

Review your own data and systems alongside access to customer networks and information.

Commercial liability

Consider premises, physical products and other third-party injury or damage exposures.

Contract alignment

Review indemnities, service levels, geographic jurisdiction and insurance requirements.

These are areas to consider, not a promise of coverage. Options, exclusions, limits and availability depend on the insurer and your circumstances.

Have a useful first conversation.

If available, have the following information ready. Your broker will tell you what is needed for a formal submission.

  • Products, services, revenue and customer sectors
  • Standard customer contracts and largest projects
  • Data access, hosting providers and security controls
  • Prior incidents, professional claims and future service changes

A question worth asking

Is cyber insurance enough for an IT services company?

Cyber and technology E&O address different allegations. A service error can cause a customer financial loss without a data breach. Review both against your contracts and work.
