Cambridge, MA (PRWEB) October 06, 2015 -- Sqrrl, the cyber threat hunting company, today announced it has been selected as a Security Innovation Network™ (SINET) 16 Innovator. As a top rated emerging cybersecurity vendor, Sqrrl will present at the SINET Showcase 2015 event on November 3rd and 4th, 2015 at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
“We are incredibly proud of SINET selecting Sqrrl as a top emerging cybersecurity vendor”, says Sqrrl CEO Mark Terenzoni. “Cyber threat hunting is a critically important capability for any organization that wishes to proactively detect and investigate advanced threats, and this award helps validate our technology and focus.”
SINET is an organization focused on advancing cybersecurity innovation through public and private sector collaboration. Sqrrl was named one of the final 16 selected companies to participate in the showcase, selected from a pool of 122 companies.
This year’s applicant pool of early stage and emerging growth companies was the most competitive since SINET began this initiative six years ago. The entries were vetted in a two-stage process by the SINET Showcase Steering Committee, which was comprised of 100 security experts drawn from the venture, government, industry, academia, investment banking and private sector communities.
“The dynamics and warp speed at which cyber threats are accelerating heightens the need for innovative cybersecurity solutions. Sqrrl brings strong value to this year’s class of the SINET 16 Innovators. As a nation we cannot afford to leave any stone unturned when it comes to uncovering innovative technologies, and this is our objective at SINET Showcase," says Robert Rodriguez, Chairman and Founder, SINET.
