Risk management plays a critical role in the technology sector, as operations in this sector face rapid growth, complex infrastructures, and high-level cyber threats. The COVID-19 pandemic has clearly demonstrated the capacity of technology to ensure business continuity worldwide. Remote working, e-commerce, and social platforms have supported social and economic activities even during the height of the crisis.
The success of technology companies depends not only on the speed of developing innovative products and services, but also on their ability to manage the risks that arise during these processes. Data breaches, hardware and software failures, cloud infrastructure issues, and advanced cyberattacks are the primary threats to operational continuity.

In an environment where artificial intelligence is rapidly spreading, technology companies face risks such as cyberattacks and data breaches, intense competition, digital business disruptions, IT resilience gaps, and loss of value due to technological innovation. Therefore, a strategic, measurable risk management plan is essential.
In addition to basic policies, cyber liability (post-breach notification, forensic investigation, legal expenses), errors and omissions (E&O), and fraud insurance against employee misconduct should be considered. Where appropriate, a business owner's policy and workers' compensation should also be added to the program.
In addition to general asset and liability coverage, product liability, business interruption (including supply chain disruptions), commercial vehicle, and workers' compensation in appropriate countries are prominent. Coverage should be customized based on the production and distribution model.
E&O is a professional liability insurance policy that covers compensation and defense costs arising from claims of errors, negligence, or misrepresentations in products or services provided, within the terms of the policy.
Technology E&O targets financial losses incurred by the customer due to malfunction or performance failure of software or technology services. For example, losses resulting from system outages caused by code errors may be covered under the policy.
Intellectual property insurance can provide protection for the costs of defending against third-party infringement claims and damages, contractual indemnification obligations, and defense costs against invalidation attempts related to patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Pace Risk Consulting structures these coverages to meet your needs.
