Armorblox, the company bringing natural language understanding (NLU) to security, today announced that it has been named a finalist in the Black Unicorn Awards for 2019.
Armorblox is competing against many of the industry’s leading providers of cybersecurity products and services for this prestigious award. The term “Black Unicorn” signifies a cybersecurity company that has the potential to reach a $1 billion dollar market value as determined by private or public investment (Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicorn_(finance)), and these awards showcase those companies with this kind of incredible potential in the cybersecurity marketplace.
“It’s exciting to see Armorblox making it into the finalist round among other cybersecurity industry leaders in our first annual Black Unicorn awards,” said Judges Robert Herjavec of www.herjavecgroup.com, David DeWalt of www.nightdragon.com and Gary Miliefsky of www.cyberdefensemediagroup.com.

“We are honored to be recognized as a finalist for this award because of our team’s track record, and because our innovative NLU platform addresses a new layer of security: context and content of communications,” said DJ Sampath, CEO and cofounder of Armorblox. “We are excited about the opportunity in front of us as we help companies detect business email compromise, phishing emails, and accidental data disclosures – which are challenging to catch, even with multiple security solutions in place.”
