Beazley vs Lockton Cyber Insurance

For small businesses, Beazley sells cyber coverage two ways: as Full Spectrum Cyber, built around its Beazley Breach Response product plus integrated risk-management services from its in-house Beazley Security unit, and as the cyber component bundled inside the broader MediaTech form alongside tech E&O, professional E&O and media liability. ^5,1Company-reported. US small-business product pages for Full Spectrum Cyber and MediaTech; does not address any larger-account cyber program Beazley may write separately.

Lockton brokers cyber insurance and pairs placement with its own risk-management advice under a three-step Inform, Improve, Insure approach: quantifying cyber financial exposure, recommending security improvements, then negotiating coverage terms with insurers. ¹¹Company-reported. Cyber & Technology product page as read 2026-09-23.

The Full Spectrum Cyber page does not name an issuing insurer. Beazley's Digital MediaTech Application, which bundles a cyber insuring agreement, names Beazley Insurance Company, Inc. on its cover page, but the actual issuing entity for a stand-alone cyber quote is not established by the reviewed pages. ^5,7Not found in reviewed sources.

Lockton says it has built alliances with cybersecurity firms and insurer partners, but the reviewed pages do not name specific cyber insurers or which carrier would issue a given client's policy. ¹¹Not publicly disclosed. Cyber & Technology page checked 2026-09-23.

Beazley says Full Spectrum Cyber is available to accounts with under $35 million in annual revenue, with coverage limits up to $5 million, purchased by a broker through Beazley's myBeazley platform. ⁵Company-reported.

In the sample MediaTech form, unless the declarations list a separate amount, the cyber-related insuring agreements share the same Policy Aggregate Limit of Liability with the policy's technology, professional and media coverages rather than carrying a dedicated cyber-only limit. ⁶Company-reported. Sample policy form F00731, 022019 edition, Limit of Liability and Coverage section; actual sublimits depend on what is purchased and shown on the declarations, and may differ for a stand-alone Full Spectrum Cyber policy.

Cyber & Technology product page as read 2026-09-23.

Beazley says brokers can get a quote and bind Full Spectrum Cyber through its myBeazley platform for qualifying small accounts. The MediaTech application separately asks about ransomware controls such as multi-factor authentication, VPN use, patch timing and backup frequency, which affect underwriting. ^5,7Company-reported. Full Spectrum Cyber product page myBeazley paragraph and MediaTech application Ransomware Controls section; a completed application does not establish acceptance, and myBeazley is a broker tool, not a direct-to-business portal.

The Cyber & Technology page lists a named contact (its EVP, U.S. Cyber & Technology Leader) and the email cyber@lockton.com as the way to reach the team, rather than a self-serve online quote tool. ¹¹Company-reported. Cyber & Technology page as read 2026-09-23.
