The 2018 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards honor individuals and companies that demonstrate excellence, innovation, and leadership in information security. Winners are determined by the strength of each nomination and the popular vote by members of the information security community.
“We are honored to be recognized as winners of this year’s Cybersecurity Excellence Awards in three separate categories,” said Brian M.

The Cybersecurity Excellence Awards are the latest in a long line of recent achievements for Threat Stack, which grew its business across the board in 2017, with 235 percent year-over-year revenue growth and a 125 percent increase in workloads monitored. The company’s unique, integrated platform-approach to threat detection leverages host intrusion supplemented by additional security indicators, which identify behavioral anomalies across the infrastructure via real-time alerts as well as a contextual understanding of internal and external sources of risk.
Threat Stack gives security, operations and development professionals one platform to leverage and understand whether all compliance standards, best practices and centralized workflows are being followed across the organization. Through Threat Stack’s real-time monitoring and alerting, organizations know that their infrastructure is constantly monitored and defended, and thus can move at the speed of DevOps without compromising security.
