“The creation of this Cybersecurity Excellence Award highlights the critical importance of threat hunting,” said CEO Mark Terenzoni. “The fact that we were the first-ever company to win an award in the new threat hunting category is a recognition of Sqrrl’s thought and product leadership in this emerging space. We’re proud to be at the forefront of an industry that is empowering firms to take the fight to the adversary.”
