Forbes notes that cybersecurity is at the top of the list of risks for any business.
“The chilling worst-case scenarios are in the headlines on any given day: ransomware attacks that shut down hospitals and schools; private customer information stolen by cybercriminals and sold on the dark web; internal company emails grabbed in a data breach and published online. It’s no wonder that demand for cybersecurity services is booming,” said the editors while explaining in their intro to the 2024 list of the fastest-growing startups in this critical field, identified in cooperation with Lightspeed Venture Partners.
“The companies in the Fortune Cyber 60 offer a broad range of tools and services, from threat detection and identification management to disaster recovery and compliance with regulations. Some have been around for nearly a decade, while others only recently celebrated their first birthdays, but their products have earned the trust of major customers and investors.”
