Attivo Networks Named as a Largest Greater Bay Area Cybersecurity Company

Attivo Networks^®, the industry experts in preventing identity privilege escalation and detecting lateral movement attacks, announced today that the San Francisco Business Times has selected the company for this year's Largest Greater Bay Area Cybersecurity Companies list. This list is based on qualified cybersecurity companies and by the size of their local workforce.

The San Francisco Business Times recently published its annual list of the top cybersecurity companies in the Bay Area, which is defined as the counties of Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco and San Mateo. Data for the rankings was obtained from company representatives and companywide employees was used as secondary ranking criteria.

"Attivo Networks is honored to be included in this prestigious list of the largest cybersecurity companies in the Bay Area," said Tushar Kothari, CEO of Attivo Networks. "The growth of our company has been fueled by a strong demand for products that provide scalable identity protection and lateral movement detection. This award ranking is a direct result of the company's rapid growth and our team's unwavering commitment to delivering innovative solutions that solve difficult cybersecurity challenges."

Attivo Networks provides prevention, detection, and visibility solutions for protecting an organization's Active Directory environment on-premises and in the cloud. The company's ADAssessor solution identifies AD weaknesses and exposures to detect advanced attacks in real-time. The ADSecure solution prevents exploitation of Active Directory by efficiently concealing real Active Directory objects, raising alerts on unauthorized activities, and returning misinformation for derailing the attack. These protections are all achieved without altering the production Active Directory environment.
