The prestigious award recognizes cybersecurity companies with the potential of a $1B valuation in the next 1-3 years.

London, UK, October 26, 2023 – Panaseer is proud to be presented with the Black Unicorn Award 2023 at CyberDefenseCon 2023, the most exclusive and prestigious CISO and cybersecurity innovator conference in the world, taking place today at The Ritz Carlton, Florida. In a fast-growing cybersecurity industry, the award from Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM), the industry’s leading electronic information security magazine, identifies cybersecurity innovators with high growth potential.

Panaseer competed against many of the industry’s leading providers of cybersecurity products and services for this prestigious award, earning the accolade for its Continuous Controls Monitoring platform. The term “Black Unicorn” signifies a cybersecurity company that has the potential to reach a $1 billion dollar market value as determined by private or public investment, and these awards showcase those companies with this kind of incredible potential in the cybersecurity marketplace.

“We’re pleased to name Panaseer as a winner among a small, elite group of cybersecurity industry leaders in our annual Black Unicorn Awards,” said Judges Dr. Lindsey Polley de Lopez of VentureScope, Robert R. Ackerman Jr. of Allegis Cyber, Dino Boukouris of MomentumCyber and Gary Miliefsky of Cyber Defense Media Group.

“We’re thrilled to be named among this coveted group of Black Unicorn winners in the 11th year of the Cyber Defense Awards. It shows that the cybersecurity industry is embracing Continuous Controls Monitoring as an essential technology for changing how organizations measure and improve their security posture. When 79% of businesses have suffered a breach due to a security control failure, we’re using our innovative, data science approach to change the narrative. As we continue to support our customers’ security posture management, being recognized by a panel of leading infosec experts from around the globe is a real honor,” said Jonathan Gill, CEO of Panaseer.
