New funding, according to Coalition, will be used on its global, internet-scale data platform that assesses hundreds of millions of data points to assess organisations’ risk within minutes.
Coalition noted that it will expand its global platform to deliver cybersecurity risk management tools to any organisation free of cost.
The company said that the fund will also be invested to hire engineering and incident response experts over the next year.
Coalition CEO and co-founder Joshua Motta said: “Cyber losses cost the global economy an estimated $1.5 trillion each year, forcing thousands of SMBs to close their doors after experiencing a security failure.
