We're honored SC Magazine has selected Cybereason as Rookie Security Company of the Year.
SC Magazine noted that we have a "strong customer base, with production deployments in all key verticals – defense, retail, pharma, finance." Some of our other accolades, like being named “Best Emerging Technology” by SC Magazine UK and one of the “10 Coolest Security Startups of 2015” by CRN, were also mentioned.
But what really stood for us was when SC Magazine wrote that we "build products for the people using them." One of our principles is that companies need a way to supplement their existing security teams, which are often short staffed and overburdened.
Companies shouldn't have to fall to attackers because there's a shortage of qualified security professionals. They just need the right technology to help more junior analysts fully understand the threats their company faces. Naturally, we've always felt our endpoint detection and response platform offers that capability. But SC Magazine seems to agree with us saying that, "Cybereason products provide smaller security teams with the ability to proactively hunt for attacks at the level of a Lockheed Martin, because it provides the visibility, computational power, context and agility required to execute quickly and accurately."
SC Magazine also praised our support options, noting that our email, phone, chat and in-person options are free, and added that help requests aren't from customers who are having trouble using the platform. Instead, they're trying to "leverage the data to suit needs (i.e., remediation strategies), validating zero days, or helping to analyze data found in Cybereason."
We also need to mention Cybereason's partners, which include Lockheed Martin and SoftBank, since our relationship with them impressed SC Magazine. The news site said that they "not only help the company sell, they are intimately familiar with the solution, and use that knowledge to support their customers’ use of Cybereason."
We've always said that our employees are incredibly talented, a point not missed by SC Magazine, which wrote that we have "an industry leading R&D team composed of experts in data analytics, frontend and backend developers, user experience and security researchers."
Thanks again, SC Magazine. We're going to continue to work hard and return power to the defenders.
