The winners were selected based on rigorous and exhaustive selection criteria. The organizations demonstrated a deep current understanding of cybersecurity challenges facing our businesses and nation today, as well as the foresight to define and implement cybersecurity programs and solutions of tomorrow. Each one of the winners has played a crucial role in shaping the Securonix products and functionality, and continues to provide valuable input to the Securonix product and engineering teams.
