The companies in CRN's Security 100 have demonstrated creativity and innovation in product development, as well as a strong commitment to delivering those offerings through a vibrant channel of solution providers.

In addition to recognizing security technology vendors for outstanding products and services, the Security 100 list also serves as a valuable guide for solution providers trying to navigate the IT security market. The list aids prospective channel partners in identifying the vendors that can best help them improve or expand their security offerings.

The ProtectWise™ Cloud Network DVR provides unlimited retention of full-fidelity network traffic by continuously recording everything on a company's network. By leveraging the cloud, the ProtectWise platform provides powerful threat detection capabilities. It correlates threat detection from proprietary research, machine learning, flow-based traffic algorithms as well as multiple commercial intelligence feeds to provide collective security. This is combined with advanced visualization tools that allow for deep-dive forensics and faster incident response.

"Security solutions are more essential than ever to the healt and sustainability of every business, large or small," said Robert Faletra, CEO, The Channel Company. "The frequency and complexity of IT security threats have vastly increased in recent years, requiring rapid innovation and an incisive, forward-thinking defense strategy. The importance of having expertly secured networks, software, hardware, applications and databases cannot be overstated. Our Security 100 list honors those tech suppliers at the forefront of this field for their contributions to the advancement of the channel and to the IT market at large."



"CRN's recognition of ProtectWise on its inaugural Security 100 list is a testament to the hard work and innovation of the team here," said Mark Rotolo, VP of Global Sales at ProtectWise. "ProtectWise is changing the way that security professionals interact with network security. Our platform provides a comprehensive network view that is both beautiful and powerful. We think this is an excellent opportunity for the channel."
