VANCOUVER, Dec. 6, 2016 /CNW/ - VirtualArmour International Inc.
(the "Company") (CSE:VAI), a leading cybersecurity and managed services solutions provider, has been named one of the
world's hottest cybersecurity companies to watch in 2017. CyberSecurity Ventures, the world's leading researcher and
publisher of reports covering global cybercrime damage projections, cybersecurity spending forecasts, and cybersecurity employment
figures has placed VirtualArmour at #282 in their Cybersecurity 500 ranking for Q4 2016.
"As a growing company focused on innovation and service, we are proud to be part of the Cybersecurity 500 list which features
some of the most notable security companies worldwide such as Palo Alto Networks, IBM Security, and Carbon Black," said
Matthew Brennan, President of VirtualArmour. "Being featured in this prolific list for the first
time with such a strong peer group is a testament to our rapid growth and emerging presence as a leading security services
provider. As cyber threats continue to increase at alarming rates so does the need for businesses to protect their vital data from
incoming breaches. We are excited about the opportunity to bring VirtualArmour solutions to companies that are in need of a
cybersecurity partner."
The Cybersecurity 500 is a global compilation of leading companies who provide cybersecurity solutions and services. The
list creates awareness and recognition for the most innovative cybersecurity companies – ranging from the largest and most
recognizable brands, to VC backed start-ups and emerging players, to small firms with potentially game-changing technologies, to
solution providers poised for growth around productized or vertically focused services.
Cybercrime continues to fuel an expanding cyber market. Cybersecurity Ventures recently predicted that cybercrime damages will
cost the world $6 trillion annually by 2021, up from $3 trillion last
year. "We continuously look at thousands of companies for inclusion in the Cybersecurity 500, by soliciting feedback from CISOs, IT
security practitioners and service providers, and researching hundreds of cybersecurity events and news sources that we follow,"
says Steve Morgan, founder and CEO at Cybersecurity Ventures, and Editor-In-Chief of the
Cybersecurity 500.
