Real-Time Cyber Risk Exposure Now at Cedants’ Fingertips

Coalition Re has launched its new Helios platform to help cedants gain real-time visibility into their cyber risk exposure. Starting July 1, 2025, all new cedants will have access to the platform. Existing cedants can use it now.

The Helios platform enables users to track systemic cyber risk, catastrophe loads, and portfolio aggregation trends. Previously, Coalition Re provided this data via periodic summary documents. Now, the platform delivers insights through an interactive, self-service interface.

Why Real-Time Data Matters for Cyber Risk Exposure

Shawn Ram, Coalition’s Chief Revenue Officer, emphasized the tool’s importance. “Real-time data insights are crucial to managing a portfolio of cyber risks,” he stated. The Helios platform enables cedants to assess exposures tied to widely used technologies and vendors. It also empowers them to optimize underwriting and risk management decisions.

Using Coalition’s proprietary data and analytics, Helios offers customized reports and aggregated views of portfolio risk. This allows cedants to detect emerging trends and systemic vulnerabilities early.

The Role of the Reinsurance Industry in Reducing Cyber Risk Exposure

Ram noted the broader implications for the industry. “The reinsurance industry must play a more proactive role in risk mitigation,” he said. Tools like Helios help insurers manage portfolio risks and prevent losses by identifying trends in advance.

Coalition Re supports non-proportional cyber reinsurance treaties and white-labeled cyber insurance products. These offerings are backed by capacity providers led by Aspen.
