SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Jan. 24, 2019 - eTradeWire -- PacketSled, the leading Network Monitoring and Threat Intelligence platform, has been recognized as a Trust Award finalist in the Best Computer Forensic Solution category for the 2019 SC Awards. The finalists and winners for the Trust Awards are chosen by an expert panel of judges with extensive knowledge and experience in the cybersecurity industry. Winners will be announced at the SC Awards ceremony on March 5, 2019 in San Francisco.

"Every new year brings with it an unpredictable mix of adversity and opportunity for information security professionals," said Illena Armstrong, VP, editorial, SC Media. "In 2018, we watched as ransomware took down entire city governments, popular online platforms were accused of mishandling user data, and technology giants announced an unprecedented industry-wide effort to solve the Spectre and Meltdown CPU vulnerabilities. Through it all, this year's SC Awards finalists found ways to break boundaries, overcome challenges and contribute fresh new ideas to the world of cybersecurity."

"We are honored to be recognized for the third consecutive year in this category by SC Magazine," said Dr. Igor Mezic, CTO at PacketSled. "We have a big year ahead of us in terms of launching more innovative, AI-driven capabilities in our platform."

PacketSled empowers organizations with an AI-driven platform that delivers network monitoring, network forensics and incident response. In the face of countless external network security threats and the vulnerability most organizations feel towards insider attacks (ninety percent according to one study), PacketSled's context-aware AI rapidly identifies potential threats to critical data systems before significant damage is done.
