The 2024 SC Media Awards Honor Companies Offering Cutting-Edge Products and Services Across Many Areas of Cybersecurity
AUSTIN, TEXAS — August 30, 2024 — runZero, a leading provider of Cyber Asset Attack Surface Management (CAASM) and top rated on Gartner Peer Insights, today announced that the company has been recognized as an Excellence Award Finalist in the Most Promising Early-Stage Startup category for the 2024 SC Awards. This announcement was made on Thursday, August 29, 2024, as part of SC Media’s 2024 SC Awards coverage.
Celebrating its 27th year, the SC Awards recognize the solutions, organizations, and individuals that have demonstrated exceptional achievement in advancing the security of information security. This year, the SC Awards received a remarkable number of entries across 34 specialty categories, with many notable companies earning nominations for their leadership and commitment to cybersecurity.
The SC Awards were evaluated by a distinguished panel of judges, including cybersecurity professionals, industry leaders, and members of the CyberRisk Alliance community from sectors such as healthcare, financial services, education, and technology.
“The finalists for the 2024 SC Awards truly represent the forefront of cybersecurity innovation and leadership,” said Tom Spring, Editorial Director at SC Media. “These solutions, organizations, and professionals have demonstrated outstanding capabilities in addressing today’s complex and ever-changing threat landscape. We are proud to recognize their contributions to the cybersecurity community.”
Many CAASM solutions in the market rely heavily on integrations to inventory assets, leading to incomplete visibility into unknown and unmanaged assets, while others focus solely on IT devices, lacking coverage for OT and IoT assets. The runZero Platform combines powerful proprietary active scanning and native passive discovery with integrations to overcome these limitations, providing a comprehensive, unified solution that delivers complete visibility and accurate, in-depth fingerprinting for all IT, OT, and IoT devices across on-prem, cloud, and remote environments.
“We are honored to be recognized by SC Media for our unique approach to CAASM and exposure management,” said Julie Albright, chief operating officer at runZero. “This nomination speaks volumes to our commitment to helping organizations address the urgent cybersecurity challenge of improving visibility into managed and unmanaged assets with a solution that is easy to implement and produces results immediately.”
Over the coming week, the SC Media editorial team will provide in-depth coverage of runZero, including a featured profile on the SC Media website and promotion across their social media. Winners of the 2024 SC Awards will be announced on September 17, 2024.
