Areas of coverage

CFC

  • role: CFC's Technology product is a single package policy for technology companies that bundles errors & omissions liability, breach-of-contract cover, IP infringement and media liability, and cyber cover. Technology product page and US product brochure; the policy as issued controls the exact scope for any one customer.company-reportedSource ↗Source ↗
  • insurer: The Technology application form names only CFC Underwriting Limited, a UK entity authorized and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, as the party administering the form. Neither the Technology product page nor the application discloses which specific insurer or Lloyd's syndicate capacity backs a given US Technology policy. Technology application footer and the regulatory information page, both checked on 2026-09-23; CFC's US arm, CFC USA Inc., separately holds admitted producer licenses and E&S authorization in NY, TX, GA and CA, but that page does not tie a specific license to the Technology product.not-disclosedSource ↗Source ↗
  • coverage: CFC describes coverage for financial loss, bodily injury or property damage arising from a technology company's products and services, plus legal liability for breach of client contracts and IP infringement claims such as copyright and trademark disputes. Product brochure feature descriptions; exclusions and conditions are set by the policy wording, which was not reviewed.company-reportedSource ↗
  • coverage: The cyber portion of the policy includes network and privacy liability, business interruption, data rectification and recreation costs, extortion cover, and social engineering coverage, sitting inside the same Technology package rather than as a separate purchase. Product brochure 'Comprehensive cyber cover' section.company-reportedSource ↗
  • limits: CFC publishes a maximum errors & omissions/media/cyber limit of $10,000,000 and a maximum commercial general liability limit of $6,000,000 for this product, with a minimum deductible of $0. Brochure 'Limits and deductibles' table; the limit and deductible on an individual policy's declarations control.company-reportedSource ↗
  • services: Policyholders get access to CFC's incident response service at a $0 deductible, sitting on a limit separate from the main policy limit, plus a free app with dark web monitoring, phishing simulations and network deep scanning. Brochure 'Market leading cyber incident response' and 'Response app highlights' sections; CFC calls its incident response team one of the largest in-house teams in the industry, a characterization not independently verified here.company-reportedSource ↗
  • application: The US Technology application asks for company revenue by year, funding-round history, subcontractor and hosting arrangements, and whether multi-factor authentication is enforced for remote network access and email; it is returned to your insurance broker. Application form Sections 1, 2 and 4; CFC also lists Connect and named API partners as digital trading channels on the product page, which may bypass a paper application for some brokers.company-reportedSource ↗Source ↗
  • eligibility: CFC says the Technology product is suitable for start-ups, mid-size and multinational tech companies, without publishing a specific revenue or headcount cutoff on the product page. Technology product page introduction; actual eligibility for a given applicant depends on underwriting review of the application.company-reportedSource ↗

What Are the Key Differences Between CFC and Liberty Mutual Tech E&O Insurance?

CFC publishes limits and a separate response layer

CFC publishes a maximum $10 million limit for E&O, media, and cyber and a maximum $6 million for general liability, with a minimum $0 deductible. Its incident-response service has a separate limit and $0 deductible. Liberty Mutual describes Liberty Tech Resolution as blended cyber and Tech E&O but gives no comparable limits in the reviewed claim. Ask for the applicable limits and how response expenses affect the main policy limit before comparing premiums. [3] [8]

CFC bundles several technology exposures

CFC describes one package covering financial loss, bodily injury or property damage from technology products and services, breach of client contracts, and IP claims; cyber includes interruption, data restoration, extortion, and social engineering. Liberty Mutual describes a blended cyber and Tech E&O solution but does not enumerate the same protections in its reviewed claim. Compare the proposed forms for the contract, IP, and cyber scenarios your customers require. [5] [8]

The application route runs through a broker

CFC's U.S. application asks about revenue, funding, subcontractors, hosting, and multifactor authentication, then goes back to the insurance broker. Liberty Mutual also directs business buyers to a broker or agent. Ask your broker how each submission handles your hosting partners and security controls. [4] [8]

What Should You Confirm in CFC and Liberty Mutual Tech E&O Insurance Quotes?

  • Ask CFC whether your quote includes the incident-response limit, free monitoring app, and the package's E&O/cyber sublimits. [3]
  • Ask Liberty Mutual for the separate E&O and cyber limits, deductibles, and covered technology services. [8]

CFC's Technology package includes E&O, cyber, and incident-response services with a separate response limit; Liberty Mutual describes a combined cyber and Tech E&O solution.
