LONDON (UK): Lancope, Inc. is already achieving significant corporate momentum in 2015 as it helps drive the market for advanced security analytics and continuous response. By collecting and analysing vast amounts of data from across an enterprise’s entire network, Lancope’s StealthWatch® System enables organisations to obtain in-depth security context for fighting off today’s most damaging cyber threats. Actionable security intelligence allows organisations to move away from ineffective perimeter-based defenses and embrace a more comprehensive, continuous strategy for incident response.HIHI
Lancope’s business continued to grow at an exponential rate in 2014, with milestones including:
Securing 32 of the Fortune 100
Growing its international business by more than 275%
Accelerating customer adoption through its strategic Cisco partnership
Achieving a 5-year CAGR of 33%
Launching a global 24x7 customer success organisation
Unveiling a global Secure Partner Program
In 2014, Lancope launched its new global world-class customer success organisation to help customers embrace proactive, lean-forward cyber security. Highlights of the new initiative include a more formalised customer on-boarding program, a highly intuitive customer community portal, additional technical support levels, new professional services offerings, and enhanced training opportunities including free eLearning.
In addition to strengthening customer relationships, Lancope also focused heavily on strong industry partnerships in 2014. The company continued to enhance its partnership with Cisco through tightened integrations that benefit end users, including new StealthWatch System mitigation functionality via Cisco’s Identity Services Engine (ISE). Lancope also launched its new Secure Partner Program in 2014 to extend the capabilities of the StealthWatch System to additional resellers and their end customers, and also unveiled its Technology Partner Program to foster additional technology partnerships that expand product functionality for joint customers.
“Enterprises around the world are realising that they cannot just continue to build up their perimeter defenses to keep the bad guys out,” said Mike Potts, president and CEO of Lancope. “The key is recognising that attackers will find their way onto your network, and having the tools and processes in place to swiftly detect and respond to attacks when they occur. IDC recently ranked Lancope as one of the top 10 providers of threat detection and continuous monitoring tools based on revenue as we continue to rise in these rankings.”
In addition to the milestones above, Lancope also received significant external recognition over the past year, securing both the Red Herring Top 100 North America and Top 100 Global awards, CRN Tech Innovator award and InfoWorld’s 2015 Technology of the Year award, just to name a few. Lancope was also recently ranked #7 in the Cybersecurity 500 listing of hot companies to watch in 2015.
Already in 2015, Lancope unveiled its new StealthWatch System Version 6.6 including further Cisco integration, new security algorithms for enhanced threat detection, and increased system scalability to 6 million flows per second. By turning the entire network into a security sensor, the StealthWatch System can report on what occurred before, during and after an attack to deliver both real-time threat detection and advanced forensics for preventing future security incidents.
Lancope will continue to advance its StealthWatch technology throughout the year to extend visibility to additional parts of the network and help organisations fend off ever-evolving attack vectors.
