Augmentt Featured on the CRN Stellar Security Startups to Know in 2023

Kanata, Ontario, Canada, November 21, 2023 — Cyberattacks are unrelenting, rapidly evolving, and businesses are demanding the latest defensive weapons to fight back. As part of CRN’s Stellar Startups for 2023, Augmentt has been highlighted as 1 of 48 security startups, founded in 2017 or later, that are developing leading-edge cybersecurity technology that solution providers should be aware of.

Staying Ahead Of The Bad Guys

Business IT systems continue to face unrelenting – and ever evolving – cybersecurity attacks including malware and ransomware, phishing scams, denial of service attacks and data theft. What’s more, the vulnerable “attack surface” for cyberattacks has expanded with the expansion of hybrid/multi-cloud computing, the growth of ecommerce platforms, the proliferation of IoT and mobile devices, and the move to remote work.

With so many high-profile security incidents making headlines, cybersecurity is top-of-mind for many IT managers. And that’s driving demand for cybersecurity solutions from solutions providers and strategic service providers.

Late last year McKinsey & Co. said that globally organizations spent around $150 billion on security solutions and services in 2021, a number that’s growing 12.4 percent annually. But beyond actual cybersecurity spending, the consulting firm said that given the rapid increase in cyberthreats the total addressable cybersecurity market – the potential opportunity for vendors and solution providers – is a staggering $1.5 trillion to $2.0 trillion.

While many businesses and organizations rely on systems and software from established cybersecurity vendors for protection, some of the most innovative offerings for battling increasingly sophisticated cyberattackers is coming from a wave of startups who are pushing the boundaries of what cybersecurity technology can do.

Leading-edge cybersecurity technologies present a major opportunity for solution providers and strategic service providers.
