Understanding the exposures

Two connected exposures. A coordinated review.

Businesses that use technology and businesses that provide it can face different insurance needs. We review how cyber coverage and technology errors and omissions work together, including potential overlaps and differences in terms.

Cyber

Cyber insurance

coverage for specified costs and liabilities arising from cyber incidents, such as breach response, certain business interruption losses, and privacy or network security claims.

Technology E&O

Technology errors and omissions

coverage for claims alleging errors or failures in your technology products or services. This deserves particular attention when customers rely on the technology you provide.

How we help

Prepare, compare, and coordinate.

Prepare for the questions insurers will ask.

We help coordinate applications, clarify insurer requirements, and identify matters to discuss with your IT team or security advisers. From access controls to backups and incident response preparations, we help connect underwriting questions with the people who can provide accurate information about your business.

Access resources that support your cyber readiness.

Virtus helps clients access carrier-provided cyber assessments and security resources. Availability depends on the carrier and program. We help you understand the resources available and coordinate with your IT team or security advisers as you evaluate findings and next steps.

Evaluate the coverage behind the limit.

We review limits, deductibles, exclusions, sublimits, and relevant conditions alongside your operations and potential exposures. Relevant benchmarks can help inform the discussion, with the comparison and its limitations explained. We bring you a recommendation based on the program as a whole.

Support when an incident becomes a claim.

Our claims team helps with reporting, coverage questions, and coordination with the carrier and its response providers. Involvement is tailored to the claim and the support needed. We help you understand the insurance process while your IT advisers and response specialists address the incident.
