Coalition CEO Meets With U.S. President, National Security Team to Advance Nation’s Cybersecurity Efforts

Joshua Motta joins President Biden and CEOs from Apple, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and others to discuss protecting U.S. entities against ongoing cyber attacks

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — August 26, 2021 — Coalition, the leading cyber insurance and security provider, today announced its CEO and co-founder Joshua Motta met with President Joe Biden, members of his cabinet, his national security team, and private sector and academic leaders to discuss the nation’s cybersecurity efforts. 

The meeting was established to determine how these groups can work together to collectively improve the nation's cybersecurity as U.S. public and private sector entities increasingly face cyber attacks. Coalition played a unique role in discussing how cyber insurance can help solve these cybersecurity challenges by incentivizing the controls that reduce the likelihood or success of a cyber attack and providing a lifeline to those organizations that have had to file a claim.  

“We’re honored to work with President Biden, the government, and other private sector leaders to tackle our nation’s cybersecurity challenges head on,” said Joshua Motta, CEO and co-founder of Coalition. “As the threats from ransomware and other cyber crimes accelerate, small and midsize businesses can’t be left to fend for themselves. It takes a broad combination of accessible technology and aligned incentives to keep these companies safe.”

Coalition also made a public commitment to offer its policyholder risk management platform, Coalition Control, to any business at no cost effective immediately. The platform includes continuous attack surface monitoring, recommendations on how to close security vulnerabilities, and a downloadable risk assessment to help organizations control their cyber risk exposure. Coalition is making this risk management platform available at: coalitioninc.com/securityforall.
