SAN FRANCISCO, June 21, 2017 – Nozomi Networks Inc., the pioneer in real-time cyber security and operational visibility for industrial control systems (ICS), today announced that it had been selected as a winner of Red Herring’s Top 100 North America award. The prestigious award recognizes innovative technology companies who represent the most promising private ventures from around the world.

“We’re excited to be recognized among an elite group of Red Herring Top 100 winners,” said Nozomi Networks CEO Edgard Capdevielle, following last week’s news that Nozomi had been recognized as a 2017 Gartner Cool Vendor. “The Red Herring award further validates the strength of our company and our proven value to customers worldwide. Our team is gratified to see Nozomi’s mission of securing the world’s critical infrastructure recognized by Red Herring.”

Leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning, Nozomi Networks has created a single platform for comprehensive ICS cyber security. Today the company protects tens of thousands of industrial devices around the world. Nozomi Networks combines anomaly detection, vulnerability assessment and asset inventory into one solution that secures critical infrastructure operations amid rising global threats.

Red Herring Top 100 North America enlists outstanding entrepreneurs and promising companies. It selects the award winners from approximately 1,200 privately financed companies each year in the US and Canada. Since 1996, Red Herring has kept tabs on these up-and-comers. Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize that companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Skype, Salesforce.com, YouTube, Palo Alto Networks and eBay would change the way we live and work.

“2017’s crop of Top 100 winners has been among our most intriguing yet,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and chairman of Red Herring. “North America has led the way in tech for so many years, and to see such unique, pioneering entrepreneurs and companies here in California, which is in many ways the heartland of the industry, has been a thrilling experience.

“What has excited me most is to see so many people forging niches in high-tech and cutting edge sectors,” added Vieux. “Some of the technical wizardry and first-rate business models showcased here at the conference have been fantastic to learn about. We believe Nozomi Networks embodies the drive, skill and passion on which tech thrives. Nozomi Networks should be proud of its achievement – the competition was incredibly strong.”
