SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Noname Security, the most complete, proactive API security platform, today announced that it has been named a finalist in the Black Unicorn Awards for 2022. The Black Unicorn Awards and Black Unicorn category showcase companies in the cybersecurity marketplace that have the potential to reach a $1 billion dollar market value, as determined by private or public investment sources.
“It’s an honor to be a finalist in The Black Unicorn Awards again this year. With organizations having upwards of 15,000 active APIs, the need for API security is growing exponentially. To be recognized by such a prestigious organization for our work to secure APIs validates that we are on the right path to make companies of all sizes more secure,” said Oz Golan, Co-Founder and CEO of Noname Security.
The need to secure APIs has increased as organizations continue to experience security incidents that take advantage of unprotected APIs. In a recent report by Noname Security, “The API Security Disconnect,” 76% of those surveyed shared that they experienced an API security incident during the last 12 months. Additionally, 74% of cybersecurity professionals do not have a complete API inventory or know which APIs return sensitive data.
“We’re pleased to name Noname Security as a finalist among a small, elite group of cybersecurity industry leaders in our annual Black Unicorn awards,” said Judges Robert R. Ackerman, Jr. of www.allegiscyber.com, Dino Boukouris of www.momentumcyber.com and Gary Miliefsky of www.cyberdefensemediagroup.com.
