Why Cybersecurity Companies Need Specialist Insurance
Cybersecurity organisations protect businesses from cyber-attacks, vulnerabilities, system breaches and
operational disruption. But because your work directly influences a client’s data integrity, finances and
reputation, insurers classify cybersecurity as a high-technical-risk sector. Even a small error—such as an
overlooked vulnerability or misconfigured firewall—can result in significant claims.
Whether you’re running penetration tests, remediating breaches, managing a SOC or delivering MDR services,
specialist insurance ensures you meet client contract demands and protect your business from high-severity risks.
Key Cybersecurity Company Insurance Cover
Specialist protection for high-risk cybersecurity operations.
- Professional Indemnity – for errors in advice, assessment, remediation & security configuration.
- Cyber Liability – protection if your work contributes to a data breach or client business interruption.
- Technology E&O – financial loss due to service failure, incorrect configuration or software setup.
- Public Liability – accidental damage or injury during onsite engagements or hardware installation.
- Media Liability – IP and copyright issues relating to reports or documentation.
- Contractual Liability – essential where clients require specific indemnity levels.
- Business Interruption (cyber) – downtime after an insured cyber event affecting your firm.
- Directors & Officers – protects company directors from legal claims & governance issues.
