Areas of coverage

Newfront

  • role: 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. Cyber Risk page's Key Coverages list.company-reportedSource ↗
  • eligibility: 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. Cyber Risk page's Our Approach introduction.company-reportedSource ↗
  • coverage: 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. Cyber Risk page's Subject Matter Expertise section.company-reportedSource ↗
  • insurer: 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. Checked the Cyber Risk page for a named tech E&O carrier; none was found.not-foundSource ↗
  • limits: 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. Cyber Risk page's Subject Matter Expertise section; limit amounts are quote-specific.not-disclosedSource ↗
  • services: 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. Cyber Risk page's Our Approach section; describes the cyber practice generally, applied to tech E&O as a listed coverage within it.company-reportedSource ↗
  • application: 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. General consultation intake, not a technology-E&O-specific application path.company-reportedSource ↗

TechInsurance

  • role: TechInsurance sells technology errors and omissions (tech E&O) as a bundle of two policies, errors and omissions insurance and cyber liability insurance, built specifically for IT and technology companies. Tech E&O product page.company-reportedSource ↗
  • insurer: The reviewed page does not name the issuing insurer for a tech E&O policy. Tech E&O product page as read on 2026-09-23.not-disclosedSource ↗
  • coverage: TechInsurance says the E&O half of the bundle covers claims over errors, undelivered services, missed deadlines, budget overruns and breach of contract, while the cyber half splits into first-party coverage (for breaches of the buyer's own systems) and third-party coverage (for breaches on a client's systems the buyer worked on). Tech E&O product page; general policy description, not a specific policy form.company-reportedSource ↗
  • coverage: TechInsurance says the standard tech E&O bundle does not automatically include coverage for intellectual property or copyright disputes; that coverage usually must be added to the policy. Tech E&O product page, Does E&O insurance cover media and intellectual property (IP) rights? section.company-reportedSource ↗
  • eligibility: TechInsurance targets tech E&O at IT and technology businesses, listing software developers, MSPs, SaaS companies, IT consultants, app developers, data centers and cybersecurity firms among the professions it insures under this bundle.

  • limits: TechInsurance says tech E&O policyholders pay a median of $67 per month, or about $807 a year, with the exact premium depending on profession risk, policy limits, the amount and access to personally identifiable information the company handles, and claims history.

Newfront places Technology E&O through its Cyber Risk practice, negotiates bespoke wording and models limits, but publishes no prices.
