How Technology Insurance protects you

A vital component of any Technology Insurance policy is professional indemnity cover for lawsuits brought against your company. Your policy can also protect you against the ever-increasing array of cyber risks faced by businesses today – from ransom demands to defamation claims.

Because our specialist brokers understand the risks you face as a tech firm, they can tailor your cover to provide the best possible protection at the lowest possible price.

Professional indemnity

You’re covered for claims alleging breach of contract, errors or omissions, the failure of a product to perform its intended function, and the infringement of intellectual property rights.
Cyber attacks

Your policy can cover the cost to restore your system, network and data, including IT forensics, credit monitoring and PR to mitigate reputational damage.
Data breaches

You won’t be out of pocket if you have to notify customers, clients or employees that the security of their data has been compromised.
Business interruption

Your cover can include any fall in profits due to a security breach or system failure.
Privacy and security liability

You’re covered for defence costs and damages incurred by claims that you’ve failed to keep personal data secure.

Why you should consider Technology Insurance

When it comes to professional indemnity, it’s crucial that there are no grey areas in your policy – and that you’re covered for all the risks you face, both contractually and in your business operations.
Given today’s compensation culture, claims for breach of contract, data loss or infringement of intellectual property rights are increasingly likely – and the consequences can be disastrous.
Some contracts aren’t covered by standard insurance policies. For example, if you’re signing up to contractual terms that are subject to a US court of law, you need to ensure your policy reflects this.
When your company depends heavily on technology, a hacker attack or virus can be very damaging to your reputation and your profit.
