 | Information Technology Insurance |
Purpose of the Program
The exponential growth of the Internet has raised the odds of
parties finding themselves in courts of foreign jurisdictions. In
addition, as e-commerce continues to grow, developers are increasingly
being challenged with issues such as hacking, unauthorized access,
viruses, data theft, privacy, and intellectual property infringement.
As the industry evolves, so do consumers’
expectations, emphasizing the importance of adequate coverage for
companies and professionals operating in the Information Technology
sector.
