6 policies every software developer should consider
Clients, landlords, or state laws may require software developers to get insured. Business insurance could prevent financial losses in the event of an injury, property damage, lawsuit, or data breach.

E&O insurance can help pay legal bills if a software developer is sued over a work mistake or oversight. It's sometimes called professional liability insurance.
BEST FOR
- Software bugs
- Missed deadlines
- Programs that don't meet client requirements
Cyber liability insurance
This policy helps your software development firm recover after a data breach or cyberattack. It can also help pay for lawsuits from affected clients.
BEST FOR
- Fraud detection and monitoring services
- Client notification after a breach
- Lawsuits from clients affected by a breach
Fidelity bonds
If a client accuses one of your developers of theft, this policy reimburses the client for the amount stolen. It's also called an employee dishonesty bond.
BEST FOR
