IT work can be ambiguous in the offering. With IT professionals liability insurance, you’re covered for products, services, advice and public liability.
What is IT Professionals Liability Insurance?

- Loss of documents or data
- PR, reputation repair costs
- Errors with installations, setup
- Incorrect hardware assembly
- Development of custom software
What may not be
- Foreign jurisdictions (e.g. USA, Canada)
- Work in certain industries (e.g. medical, military)
- Disputes as to fees or payments
- Known defects or breaches
- Direct costs or loss to your revenue from cyber-crime
How can we help?
As an IT professional, you work in an industry with lots of legal ambiguity – especially when it comes to your liability.
The nature of software, hardware, and services combined makes it difficult to determine whether a risk is a public, professional or product-based liability.
A tailored IT Professionals Liability package combines these insurances to ensure you’re protected from many possible risks.
With access to a range of quality insurers, and policies not available to the public, we can offer you a range of competitive it professionals liability insurance quotes.
IT Professionals Liability claim example
Nick is an IT contractor. He was engaged to recommend and provide a management system for a professional services client. There were a number of problems with the system including crashes and loss of company and customer data.
The client pursued damages against the IT contractor for breach of contract and compensation due to the lost data and loss of revenue whilst the client was unable to service his customers.
As Nick had an IT liability insurance pack, his insurer settled the claim with the client and only had to pay a $750 excess.
