An intelligent identity security company has announced that it was named the winner of an award for its international expansion work.
Sontiq announced that it was named the winner of a Gold Stevie Award at the 18th Annual International Business Awards (IBAs), according to a press release.
The International Business Awards are the world’s premier business awards program, according to the press release.
The award recognizes Sontiq’s increased global footprint in cyber protection, according to the release.
The company says that it is now using its identity software with clients in more than 170 countries, according to the release.
Those identities include 770,000 business customers, 22 million households and 49 million individuals, the release said.
"This is the first international award win for Sontiq and a testament to the combined offerings we now have available through our Cyberscout product brand," Sontiq President & CEO Brian J. Longe said. "Our team is proud to be recognized for helping insurance partners around the world be first-to-market with cyber insurance protections that are needed in every corner of the globe. Cyber threats know no geographic boundaries."
The winners of the Stevie Awards were determined by using the average scores of more than 260 executives worldwide who participated in the judging process from June through early August 2021, according to the release.
Sontiq's release said that there were almost 4,000 submissions received from 63 nations and territories.
"As we are having to get used to life in a digital world (almost without an alternative), data and privacy protection is the ultimate shield we all need to protect our space and properties. It is amazing to learn about the inclusive and thoughtful products Sontiq has to offer to all stakeholders in modern society. And, congrats to the pioneering spirit and initiative of the management team. It resolves one of the big challenges for the modern world. Great work and achievement, indeed," read one of the judge's comments from the competition.
