Championing Innovation: RapidFort Recognized as an Intellyx Digital Innovator

We’re thrilled to announce that RapidFort has been named a winner of the Winter 2023 Intellyx Digital Innovator Award! We’re proud to be named alongside other industry leaders and to be recognized as one of the industry’s most innovative technology solutions. 

Intellyx Digital Innovator Award – What is it and Why Does it Matter? 

Intellyx, an industry analyst firm that focuses on enterprise digital transformation and the disruptive vendors that support it, interacts with numerous innovators in the enterprise IT marketplace. Covering every angle of enterprise IT, from mainframes to artificial intelligence (AI,) Intellyx’s broad focus across technologies allows business executives and IT professionals to connect the dots among disruptive trends. The firm is well known throughout the IT industry for their ability to recognize trailblazers.

“At Intellyx, we get dozens of PR pitches each day from a wide range of technology vendors,” said Jason Bloomberg, President at Intellyx. “We will only set up briefings with the most disruptive and innovative firms of the lot. That’s why it made sense for us to call out the companies that made the cut.”

Intellyx bestows their Digital Innovator Award on the vendors that make it through the firm’s rigorous briefing selection process and deliver a successful briefing that results in coverage that year.

RapidFort on the Winner’s List 

In October, we sat down with Jason Bloomberg of Intellyx to discuss our Runtime Protection capabilities.

In a brain candy brief published on the site after the call, Intellyx notes that, at RapidFort, we detect components that are “NOT needed within the SBOM (software bill-of-materials) that attackers could use to gain a handhold with a known or unknown attack.”

RapidFort was also recognized for understanding the need to shift left in the software development cycle, as well as our unique approach to detecting and prioritizing security vulnerabilities in cloud native production environments so they can be hardened and streamlined at runtime.

“As a specialized analyst firm with a broad focus on digital transformation, we’re only interested in talking to vendors that are the most disruptive, interesting and enterprise-relevant, and your company is now among the 100-or-so-best we’ve talked to over the last two quarters,” the Intellyx team said in a message to RapidFort. 

We’re committed to leading innovation in the vulnerability management space, making CISOs, CTOs, security architects and developers more productive. This award win demonstrates that the industry is recognizing our progress, fueling our continued efforts.

Paving the Road to Innovation

In 2023, we hit a few milestones as we further developed our Software Attack Surface Management (SASM) platform. In September, we launched our new Runtime Protection toolset, the first solution on the market that offers build time CI/CD tools and runtime Kubernetes features that work in unison. 

‍

Along with that achievement, we successfully completed a Service Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type 2 compliance audit, we were selected as a member of the prestigious Microsoft for Startups Pegasus Program, and we integrated into the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. All of these milestones further our mission of expanding access to our technology for customers, empowering them to effortlessly secure and optimize their software.

Innovating Beyond

We’re proud to be recognized in the 2023 Winter Intellyx Digital Innovator award alongside so many other industry leaders, and we’re looking forward to carrying this momentum into 2024 as we continue to solve some of the industry’s largest problems.
