Britive Named Finalist for Top 10 Cybersecurity Startups for 2021 by Cyber Defense Magazine

Britive, the cybersecurity industry’s leading multi-cloud privilege management platform, today announced that it has been named a Finalist for the Top 10 Cybersecurity Startups for 2021 at the Black Unicorn Awards for 2021 which take place each year during the Black Hat USA conference.

Britive competed against many of the industry’s leading cybersecurity startups for this prestigious award.

“We’re pleased to name Britive as a Finalist for the Top 10 Cybersecurity Startups for 2021 among a small, elite group of startups in our third annual Black Unicorn awards,” said Judges Robert R. Ackerman Jr. of www.allegiscyber.com, David DeWalt of www.nightdragon.com, Dr. Peter Stephenson of Cyber Defense Labs and Gary Miliefsky of www.cyberdefensemediagroup.com.

“Recognition like this is immensely gratifying,” said Art Poghosyan, CEO of Britive. "But I'm equally excited by what it signals for organizations challenged with securing privileged access across the public cloud – that the Britive solution, which enables the automatic granting and expiring of Just In Time privileges and secrets cross-cloud, empowers organizations to meet this challenge. We're thrilled to be a cybersecurity startup of the year finalist and will continue to build our company and execute on our vision of becoming the leading privileged access management platform for multi-cloud organizations.”
