Coalition has announced a strategic partnership with MS&AD, in a significant move towards bolstering cybersecurity for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in Japan.
The core objective of this partnership is to offer cutting-edge cybersecurity monitoring solutions tailored to the needs of Japanese SMBs.
Coalition is a prominent player in the field of cybersecurity, known for its innovative risk management platform, Coalition Control. The platform serves as a foundation for cybersecurity solutions, providing robust risk assessment and monitoring capabilities.
On the other hand, MS&AD Insurance Group has recently introduced the MS&AD Cyber Risk Finder, a cyber risk assessment service powered by Coalition Control. This service is designed to cater to the entire Japanese SMB market.
Utilising Coalition Control’s advanced technology, the MS&AD Cyber Risk Finder offers comprehensive cyber risk diagnostics and consultation services. It leverages vulnerability data gathered from internet-connected devices worldwide to provide businesses with personalized vulnerability scores, identification of weak access points, and a prioritised action plan for remediation.
In the future, this partnership is set to expand its offerings, introducing additional cybersecurity products and services to further enhance the security posture of Japanese businesses.
Joshua Motta, Coalition’s co-founder and CEO, emphasised the importance of this collaboration, stating, “Cyber attacks are increasing globally, and Japan, as one of the world’s largest economies, is especially at risk. By joining forces with MS&AD, we’re committed to bolstering cybersecurity for Japanese companies by providing continuous security monitoring, active risk management, and mechanisms to transfer risk and respond to incidents. We’re thrilled to partner with MS&AD to protect those businesses in Japan that currently lack these sophisticated protections.”
Tomoyuki Motoyama, group chief digital officer at MS&AD, highlighted the cost-effective nature of the solution, saying, “Through our partnership with Coalition, we can offer cyber risk assessments and diagnostic services tailored for Japanese SMBs at a lower cost. Leveraging the MS&AD Group’s presence and distribution network, we will widely deliver this solution to our customers to help protect them. Moving forward, we plan to develop additional features to counter increasing cyber-attacks on supply chains targeting large companies.”
