SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 24, 2016) - Exabeam, the leader in user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA) for security, has been named a finalist in the SC Awards 2016 Europe for outstanding threat solution products in information security. The Exabeam User Behavior Analytics Platform is recognised in the Best Behaviour Analytics category, which acknowledges superior products and services that help customers address the most pressing cyber-security threats. The winners will be announced at the SC Magazine Awards Europe ceremony to be held in London on Tuesday, 7th June at a stunning new venue on the Riverside of the Thames, Old Billingsgate.
The SC Magazine Awards Europe are the information security industry's most prominent recognition. Winners in the Threat Solution categories are decided by an expert panel of judges, hand-picked by SC Magazine UK's editorial team for their breadth of knowledge and experience in the information security industry. The awards honour both the cyber-security professionals working in the trenches, and the products and services that help protect today's corporate world from a myriad of ever-changing threats.
"Today's cybercriminals are using new tactics to rob corporate networks," said Nir Polak, CEO of Exabeam. "We are honored to receive this award as it validates the need for emerging solutions, such as UBA, to shine the light on the myriad of attacks using valid account credentials -- a method that has made cybercriminals nearly invisible to all security solutions."
"Exabeam's solution represents some of the most innovative and effective security technology on the market today," said Tony Morbin, Editor in chief SC Magazine UK. "As attackers develop and practice new approaches to compromising sensitive information, companies are challenged to keep pace. The Exabeam User Behavior Analytics Platform was named an SC Award finalist for its efforts to raise the bar for the security industry."
