Insurance for Technology Companies

 

From medieval times to the mid-1800s, the ways that businesses kept track of customer data didn’t change much: pen, ink, and ledgers. In the late 1800s, typewriters, pneumatic tubes, and telegraphs improved work efficiency but the real leap into the future didn’t happen until computers and the Internet hit the workplace. Today, technology industries have exploded, employing nearly 7 million people who innovate at a rapid clip. Throughout the many evolutions, Gilbert’s Risk Solutions has been an insurance partner to all sectors in the tech industry.

We’ve insured firms ranging from entrepreneurial startups to multi-state organizations: web firms, software programmers and developers, data managers, technology consultants, application service providers, and more. Technology is a dynamic, exciting growth industry, one with evolving exposures that demand solid protection against risks.

 

At Gilbert’s Risk Solutions, our consultative approach to risk management coupled with our strong relationship with dozens of specialty insurers makes us uniquely qualified to be your insurance partner as you grow. We invite you to learn why seven generations of your neighboring businesses have placed their trust in us.

 

While we’re proud to call Pennsylvania our home, we’ve helped businesses all across the country manage their risk and we look forward to helping you, too – no matter where it is that you call home.

Our goal is to be your outsourced risk management partner

Our goal is to be your outsourced risk management partner

Whether it’s a data breach, a copyright violation by a contractor, a programming error that causes problems for a customer, or a DDoS that shuts down production for a few days, there’s seemingly no end to potential problems that can wreak havoc for fast growth tech firms. Gilbert’s Risk Solutions partners with you to identify areas of potential exposure and recommend solutions to mitigate the risk. When it comes to protecting your operations, your productivity, and your bottom line, Gilbert’s Risk Solutions can help.

Our Process

The Gilbert’s Risk Solutions process is a consultative one, based on a risk management approach. Our proprietary RISK SHIELD® Process identifies your exposures and puts a loss control plan in place to mitigate those exposures. Often, the solution is an insurance product but, frequently, it’s a recommendation for a business process or a measure that will reduce an exposure.

Tailored Solutions

For smaller technology operations, a package of coverages in a Business Owners Policy (BOP) might be the right approach. For larger firms, a tailored package of liability, property, and specialty coverages might afford the best protections. There are a number of specialty coverages important for tech firms, such as professional liability (also known as errors & omissions), data breach insurance, cyber liability, and crime insurance. As part of our risk assessment process, we will advise you of any industry-specific exposures that might warrant a supplemental form of liability insurance.

360 degree approach

We take a 360 degree view of your business to ensure that all aspects of your business are secure. Our team of experts in Loss Control, Employee Benefits, Human Resources, and Surety Bonds are all available to our Gilbert’s Risk Solutions commercial clients, ensuring multi-pronged approach to risk mitigation.
