What Is Information Technology Insurance?
Information technology insurance is a broad all encompassing insurance policy that protects your IT business from errors and mistakes from the advice you give, the products you sell, or the services you provide that result in injury, or financial loss to third parties, such as your customers.
What does an Information Technology Insurance Policy cover?
Products Liability
Products Liability insurance covers the legal and defence costs if a claim was brought against you for third party injury and third party property damages as a result of the products you’ve sold such as hardware and components.
Financial Loss from the services you provide; breach of professional duty
Professional Indemnity Insurance provides your IT business with security that if the professional services you provide results in your customer suffering a loss because of this, that your insurance policy will respond.
Financial loss from the advice and recommendations you provide
Professional Indemnity Insurance will protect your business if an actual or alleged claim is brought against you as a result of the advice you’ve given that results in a finanicial loss to a third party.
Third party Personal Injury or Property Damage
Public Liability insurance protects your business from third party injury, or property damage claims as a result of your negligence. The risk for these claims are generally lower if you’re a home based business, or if you don’t have a retail store where customers frequent often.

Product recall costs
Injuries to your employees

How would an IT policy respond in the event of a claim?
An Information technology liability insurance policy would respond in the event a third party claim is brought against you for actual, or alleged negligence as a result of the services or products you’ve provided. Your insurer will represent and defend you, including contributing/paying for the legal and defence costs if they were of the stance that you aren’t liable for the claimed damages. If your insurer concludes you’ve breached your Professional duties/liable for the damages brought against your business, they will be quick to negotiate a compensation settlement with the claimant.
