Our take
With high profile cyber attacks continuing to make headlines with increasing impact and frequency, global cybersecurity spending has skyrocketed over recent years to approach the trillion-dollar mark. The appetite for manageable, effective security systems has never been greater. Balbix is answering this by helping organizations continuously assess and improve their cybersecurity vulnerabilities using advanced AI, and swap out a risky reactive approach for a safer predictive one.
Part of its unique response is to leverage the appeal of gamified procedures to reduce the risk of attacks brought about by the error of individual employees. It is a novel approach, and Balbix is pioneering it in a way that is likely to win attention in a busy market. Balbix services big-name clients like SalesForce, and has won many industry accolades.
With its differentiated AI-powered approach to cybersecurity posture automation and excellent reference customer deployments, Balbix is very well poised to continue leading in the cybersecurity market.
