In my opinion, there are certain scopes where only software companies should be liable for System Failures. In terms of mechanism, the specialized people either on Technical Support end or at User end where softwares are implemented, only lack of enough cooperation is the cause where user and provider fail to understand requirements and demands for implementation. In other terms of Infrastructure, bad components in hardware accelleration and proper backups for Server system, nobody should be showcased for being liable rather than the people who have deployed the power backups and proper networking systems.

Who is liable for illegally installing software?
If a user illegally installs software on their home computer, they are held liable. (If a child illegally installs software on a parent's computer, the parent will most likely be held liable, depending upon the age of the child.) The exact person held liable is more sketchy when applied to a company. If the company has masterminded the illegal installation of software (i.e., they told the employees to do it), they will most likely be held liable. If an employee illegally installs software on a company computer, the installer will be held liable, but the company might also be held liable, depending on the circumstances and the degree to which the company was involved. The court sentence varies, but in the U.S. it is a maximum of 5 years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine. However, the maximum sentence is usually only used in repeated offenses and extreme first offenses.
