Coalition vs Relm Insurance Cyber Insurance

Coalition designs and distributes its own cyber policy and pairs it with security monitoring and incident-response services. ⁵Company-reported. U.S. Active Cyber Insurance for small and midsize businesses, as described on the product page.

Relm markets cyber liability insurance as a distinct line on the same page as its Technology Errors and Omissions product, explicitly noting the two are related but not the same coverage. ¹³Company-reported. Relm line-of-business page (Relm sells through brokers); not a statement identifying the issuing insurer for a given placement. This record covers general cyber liability, distinct from Relm's separate generative-ai-liability offering record covering its NOVAAI, PONTAAI and RESCAAI AI-specific products.

Admitted cyber policies are issued by Coalition Insurance Company. Non-admitted (surplus lines) policies are placed with unaffiliated insurers, so the carrier depends on the policy route. ⁷Company-reported. U.S. disclaimers for admitted and non-admitted cyber; restates the verified provider fact insurer-route.

The reviewed page does not name a specific issuing insurer for cyber placements. ¹³Not publicly disclosed. Line-of-business page as read on 2026-09-23; a specific placement's insurer is product- and jurisdiction-specific.

Coalition states that its admitted and surplus lines cyber policies are offered in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. ⁸Company-reported. Availability help article; eligibility for a particular business depends on underwriting.

Relm says a business is exposed to cyber risk if it relies on digital infrastructure, and frames the coverage around sectors with 'untested legal terrain and lagging regulation.' ¹³Company-reported. Cyber and Tech E&O page framing; not a guarantee of eligibility for a particular company.

Coalition says breach-response expenses have a separate limit, so response costs do not use up the limit for other coverages. ⁵Company-reported. Product-page description; the issued policy and declarations control.

Coalition lists pay-on-behalf cyber extortion coverage, funds transfer fraud and business interruption losses among its cyber coverages. ⁵Company-reported. Product-page coverage highlights, subject to exclusions and the policy as issued.

Relm says cyber coverage addresses network security breaches, privacy breaches and extortion threats, including data breach response costs (notification, credit monitoring, PR), forensic investigation and legal defense, ransom payments and business interruption losses, data and asset recovery, and digital crime such as funds transfer fraud and invoice manipulation. ¹³Company-reported. Cyber and Tech E&O page 'What is Cyber Insurance?' section; the issued policy and declarations control.

Relm distinguishes first-party cyber coverage (the insured's own losses) from third-party cyber liability (claims against the client resulting from a loss), saying third-party cyber typically covers legal fees, settlements and regulatory penalties. ¹³Company-reported. Cyber and Tech E&O page 'First-Party Vs. Third-Party Cyber Liability Insurance' section.
