CUPERTINO, Calif., April 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bromium®, Inc., the pioneer and leader in virtualization-based endpoint security that stops advanced malware attacks via application isolation, today announced that it has won four awards for security and innovation excellence from the industry-leading publication, Cyber Defense Magazine. These prestigious awards recognize next-generation information security leaders and security IT vendors with advanced, ground-breaking products and solutions that are helping set the bar higher in all areas of security and technology.
The awards follow a successful year for Bromium, which saw steady growth in both the public private sectors and the company joining with HP Inc. to further protect customers from web-based security threats with HP Sure Click™. Bromium also announced a partnership with the Metropolitan Police to help the law enforcement agency further its cyber forensic capabilities. Additionally, Bromium commissioned the ground-breaking research Into the Web of Profit, by Dr. Mike McGuire, Senior Lecturer in Criminology at University of Surrey, which investigates how cybercriminals acquire, launder, spend and reinvest their money. The research is due to be presented at RSA Conference on April 20, 20181.
Cyber Defense Magazine, the industry’s leading electronic information security magazine, named Bromium Secure Platform a winner of four InfoSec 2018 awards in the following categories:
- Cutting Edge in the Anti-Phishing category
- Best Product in the Application Security category
- Hot Company in the Email Security Management category
- Editor’s Choice in the Endpoint Security category
“As the digital world becomes more hostile, enterprises and government agencies need to adopt new approaches to defend themselves against the onslaught of modern phishing, ransomware and endpoint attacks, something traditional detection-based security cannot provide,” commented Gregory Webb, CEO at Bromium. “Bromium’s application isolation using virtualization provides unparalleled protection by isolating applications and tasks, while also giving complete visibility into modern cyberattacks, preventing breaches, and reducing incident response. These award wins recognize the effectiveness of our approach in protecting the enterprise and reflect a great year for Bromium.”
“With cybercrime continuing to gain momentum, surpassing global drug crime last year and reaching over $600B in theft and damages, we are proud to recognize Bromium as an award-winning innovator, offering a new approach to defeat these cybercriminals,” said Pierlugi Paganini, Editor-in-Chief, Cyber Defense Magazine.
