The Agari AI-based solution integrates global email telemetry data to develop its model of authentic and trusted communication that protects employees, partners and customers from advanced email threats.

The Agari solution also stops digital deception tactics that affect outbound email communications, such as phishing campaigns that hijack a company's brand and can damage its reputation.

Each year, hundreds of cybersecurity companies submit nomination to dozens of categories that are evaluated by a jury of cybersecurity experts. The mission of the SC Awards 2018 is to honor the achievements of companies and cybersecurity professionals striving to safeguard their business' and their customers' critical data in North America.
