The term “Baby Black Unicorn” signifies a cybersecurity company that has the potential to reach a $1 billion dollar market value within 3-5 years as determined by private or public investment (source). These awards showcase those companies with this kind of incredible potential in the cybersecurity marketplace.
“We’re pleased to name Anitian as a winner among a small, elite group of cybersecurity industry leaders in our third annual Black Unicorn awards,” said Judges Robert R. Ackerman Jr. of Allegis Cyber, David DeWalt of NightDragon, Dr. Peter Stephenson of Cyber Defense Labs, and Gary Miliefsky of Cyber Defense Media Group.
Anitian was selected because of its proven track record in replacing traditional, DIY, and consultant-driven approaches to cloud application security and compliance on the AWS and Azure clouds. What takes DevOps teams, security teams, and consultants months or years to complete – with millions of dollars in opportunity costs – Anitian’s pre-built platforms can achieve in just weeks at a fraction of the cost. Anitian’s automated and standardized platforms dramatically accelerate cloud application delivery to achieve 80% faster time to production and market.
“It’s a big honor to be recognized as a Black Unicorn winner as part of Black Hat 2021,” said Rakesh Narasimhan, President and CEO of Anitian. “Anitian has delivered the industry’s first and only platform to fully build and configure a secure, compliant, and zero trust cloud application environment in just a few hours. Our vision is to unite security and DevOps by providing an automated, pre-engineered, and high-speed way to ease the move to the cloud while securing your apps and data.”
