Key Differences in Tech E&O Insurance

Program Construction Versus a Named Policy

Marsh treats technology E&O as a financial and professional liability specialty and names it as a building block inside data-center insurance programs that also combine property, casualty and other lines. Chubb underwrites DigiTech ERM as one policy combining tech E&O with media and cyber rather than assembling a multi-line data-center tower. 10 9 3

Data-Center Gaps Versus DigiTech Additions

Marsh says off-the-shelf technology E&O policies were not built for the scale and concentration of modern data centers and can leave gaps. Chubb says DigiTech ERM adds third-party financial injury from products or services, a broadened technology-incident definition, software copyright infringement and product-recall loss of use, with no exclusion for delays or failure to deliver. Marsh’s reviewed pages do not name a technology E&O insurer; Chubb is the DigiTech ERM underwriter. 9 3

Adjacent Industries and Access

Marsh names technology among specialized industries its professional-liability experts serve, alongside banking, insurance and asset management, media and healthcare. Chubb targets software and system developers, technology-services and consulting firms, and electronics and hardware manufacturers, and quotes DigiTech ERM through Cyber Central or Marketplace. Neither Marsh nor Chubb publishes Tech E&O limit amounts on the reviewed pages. 10 3 1

What to Confirm in Tech E&O Insurance Quotes

  • Ask Marsh whether the quote is a data-center program or a standalone tech E&O placement. 9
  • Get Marsh’s proposed insurers and limits; the reviewed pages name neither. 10
  • Compare Marsh’s placed wording with Chubb’s DigiTech delay, copyright and recall statements. 3
  • Ask Chubb for DigiTech ERM limits, which public pages omit. 3
