ORLANDO, FL – October 28, 2025 – ThreatConnect today announced it has received multiple honors from Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM), the industry’s leading electronic information security magazine. The awards are presented at CyberDefenseCon 2025, the exclusive conference for cybersecurity innovators and Global CISOs.
ThreatConnect was recognized with two of the most coveted awards in the security industry:
- Market Leader Threat Intelligence
- Most Innovative Risk Management
In addition, ThreatConnect was named a finalist for the prestigious Black Unicorn Awards for 2025. The Black Unicorn designation recognizes cybersecurity companies with the potential to reach a $1 billion market valuation, highlighting their significant promise and impact on the industry.
“Recognition from Cyber Defense Magazine affirms what we consistently hear from the security leaders who rely on us: ThreatConnect is central to their mission. Today’s teams face more noise and complexity than ever—addressing threat and risk in isolation simply doesn’t work,” said Balaji Yelamanchili, CEO of ThreatConnect. “Our entire approach is rooted in the belief that integrating threat intelligence and risk management is essential. When you connect these disciplines, you enable teams not only to understand what matters most but also to act with clarity and confidence across threat ops, risk ops, and SecOps. That’s how organizations move from being reactive to driving real, measurable impact.”
The Cyber Defense Awards, now in their 13th year, celebrate innovators who are at the forefront of tackling today’s complex cyber threats. The judging panel, composed of leading independent information security experts and investors, scours the globe to identify companies that are not only market leaders but are also developing groundbreaking solutions to stay ahead of breaches.
“ThreatConnect embodies the qualities we look for in our winners: a deep understanding of tomorrow’s threats, a practical approach to solving them, and a relentless drive for innovation that helps organizations mitigate risk,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine. “Their dual win for threat intelligence and risk management, alongside their recognition as a Black Unicorn finalist, positions them as a critical player in the future of cybersecurity.”
