Emy DonavanRegional Head of Cyber, North America, AllianzSan Francisco

Tech errors and omissions losses can often be the inverse of cyber exposures for companies who receive tech services. So relative to cyber, I started out underwriting the same sort of exposures and loss scenarios for tech companies. At the time, there were barely notification laws.
