What Kind Of Work Do You Do

General Liability For Tech Industry

General liability insurance for tech businesses protects against claims like:

Example: If a client trips over exposed wires in your office and gets injured, this coverage would handle their medical bills and any legal costs.

Business Owner's Policy (BOP) For Tech Industry

A Business Owner's Policy (BOP) for tech businesses includes:

  • General liability
  • Property insurance
  • Fire damage coverage
  • Stolen equipment protection (Stolen equipment protection for business personal property is subject to policy limits and conditions).

Example: If a fire destroys your office and computers, the BOP would cover the cost to replace the damaged equipment, helping you resume operations quickly.

Cyber Liability Insurance For Tech Industry

Cyber liability insurance for tech companies covers:

  • Data breaches
  • Cyberattacks
  • Digital threats

It includes costs for:

  • Customer notification
  • Credit monitoring
  • Legal defense

Example: If a hacker leaks sensitive client data, cyber liability insurance can help cover legal fees and required customer notifications.

Note: Coverage for regulatory fines and penalties is not automatic and depends on your policy wording.

Excess Liability For Tech Industry

Excess liability insurance for tech companies offers extra coverage for:

  • Large claims
  • Coverage beyond policy limits

Example: If a client suffers a serious injury at your office and the claim exceeds your general liability limits, excess policy can provide additional coverage above your underlying policy.

Professional Liability Insurance For Tech Industry

Professional liability insurance (E&O) for tech businesses covers:

  • Service errors
  • Project failures
  • Negligence claims

Example: If a software bug crashes a client’s system, causing financial losses, this policy covers (when the claim falls within the scope of covered professional errors or omissions under your E&O policy.) legal fees and settlements.

Our Recent Client (case example)

A mid-sized Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) company approached us seeking protection after a near-miss ransomware incident exposed customer data. Their existing general liability policy did not address cyber exposures or technology professional services risk.

Challenge:

  • Customer data breach and loss of service risk
  • Potential regulatory fines, breach notifications, business interruption
  • Technology errors and omissions exposure

Solution:
We customized a cyber liability and technology E&O policy covering breach response, regulatory defense, and business interruption, with built-in risk management tools and access to incident response experts at no extra cost.

Result:
The client is now better prepared if a breach ever happens, with access to response experts, solid financial protection against cyber losses, and a clear understanding of what costs are covered.
