"This is an exciting recognition," said Mike Valentine, Chief Executive Officer at Binary Defense. "We attribute our growth to our technology and service.

We built our SOC that we have staffed with top talent, and we have been able to make an impact with our customers by serving as an extension of their team. The industry recognizes the value we are providing as we strive to make the world a safer place by detecting threats of cyberattacks."
The company grew 304% during the measured three-year period, which earned them the spot in the top 30% of the Inc. 5000 list. Binary Defense was also among the Top 20 fastest-growing security firms. In Ohio, Binary Defense was in the top 30 fastest-growing firms, and in the top 5 in the Northeast Ohio region.

Methodology
The 2019 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2015 and 2018. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2015. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2018. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2015 is $100,000; the minimum for 2018 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Companies on the Inc. 500 are featured in Inc.'s September issue.
