HUB International vs Newfront Tech E&O Insurance

HUB brokers technology E&O as part of its general E&O practice, naming technology as one of the industries it serves, and separately markets it as one line within its dedicated technology-industry practice. ^4,3Company-reported. E&O product page and technology-industry page as read 2026-09-23; neither names an issuing insurer.

Newfront lists Technology Errors and Omissions (E&O) as one of the named coverages its Cyber Risk practice places, alongside cyber liability, data breach, business interruption, network security liability and cyber extortion coverage. Newfront brokers this coverage; it does not underwrite it. ⁹Company-reported. Cyber Risk page's Key Coverages list.

Neither the E&O page nor the technology-industry page names an issuing insurer for technology E&O; HUB places this coverage with insurers that vary by client and placement. ^4,3Not found in reviewed sources. Checked both pages on 2026-09-23; no carrier is disclosed on either.

The reviewed page does not name an insurer for technology E&O placements; as a broker, Newfront's carrier for this line would depend on the placement. ⁹Not found in reviewed sources. Checked the Cyber Risk page for a named tech E&O carrier; none was found.

HUB's technology-industry page addresses fast-growing startups and established software, hardware or digital-media businesses, and says HUB currently insures more than 5,000 technology companies; that count is a company-reported figure not independently verified here. ³Company-reported. Technology-industry page framing; not specific to technology E&O alone, since the page covers HUB's full technology insurance program.

The reviewed page markets the Cyber Risk practice broadly, without a technology-E&O-specific eligibility threshold; Newfront says its cyber team helps clients navigate "increased underwriting standards" as carriers evaluate applicants. ⁹Company-reported. Cyber Risk page's Our Approach introduction.

HUB's general E&O page says policies typically cover defense costs, judgments, settlements and fines from allegations of misrepresentation, breach of professional services, wrongful practices and misleading advice, and can be structured with prior-acts coverage back to a retroactive date and tail coverage for an extended reporting period. ⁴Company-reported. General E&O coverage description; the page does not give technology-specific coverage examples beyond listing technology as a served industry.

Newfront names its "Tech E&O and Cyber team" specifically and says that team "negotiates bespoke language to ensure the broadest terms available in the marketplace," indicating technology E&O is negotiated alongside cyber wording rather than sold as an off-the-shelf form; the reviewed page does not describe specific tech E&O exclusions or professional-services scope. ⁹Company-reported. Cyber Risk page's Subject Matter Expertise section.

HUB's E&O page says policies typically include per-claim and aggregate limits, but does not publish specific limit amounts for technology E&O. ⁴Not publicly disclosed. E&O product-page structure description; specific limits are set on the quote and declarations.

Newfront says its technology team provides "proprietary modeling data to make informed decisions on limits that align with your risk exposure and tolerance," but the reviewed page does not publish specific limit ranges, retentions or premium figures for technology E&O. ⁹Not publicly disclosed. Cyber Risk page's Subject Matter Expertise section; limit amounts are quote-specific.

Not described in the reviewed sources.

Newfront says it delivers risk assessment on cyber infrastructure and policy design, negotiates coverage and placement once a client is aligned with regulatory and carrier requirements, and provides "hands-on" claims consultation before and after a breach or claim, applied to the cyber-and-tech-E&O tower it services together. ⁹Company-reported. Cyber Risk page's Our Approach section; describes the cyber practice generally, applied to tech E&O as a listed coverage within it.

HUB directs prospects to connect with a broker; the E&O page describes policies as customized to business size, industry, location, risk base and desired limits, without an online quote flow. ⁴Company-reported. Product-page call to action as read 2026-09-23.

You engage Newfront's Cyber Risk practice for technology E&O placement by requesting a consultation, which asks for your industry, company details and the service you need rather than issuing an instant quote. ¹⁰Company-reported. General consultation intake, not a technology-E&O-specific application path.
