The 2nd Annual Cybersecurity Impact Awards today announced that its independent panel of judges has identified and is recognizing multiple honorees (individuals and businesses) located in Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia (DMV) for their leadership and innovation within the cybersecurity industry. Judges reviewed submissions across categories including Start-up to Watch, Small, Medium and Large Business, Federal Headquarters and Individuals.

“This year’s nominees included a broad spectrum of cyber security companies, including a firm that provides advanced red team automation solutions, quantum security, encryption and compliance support. These are the firms that should be on the short list of any enterprise seeking to economically reduce risk in the modern age. I have had the privilege of being a judge the past two years and appreciate the opportunity to review the submissions from so many amazing cybersecurity companies in this region. Once again the quality of submissions proves that the level of innovation and talent in this region is second to none,” said Bob Gourley, CTO, OODA LLC.
