ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BluVector, a leader in network security monitoring and analytics, today announced it has been selected as a winner of Red Herring’s Top 100 North America award, recognizing exciting and innovative private technology companies. Red Herring winners were chosen from thousands of entrants.

BluVector is transforming the way organizations protect critical data and infrastructure from the most sophisticated and fast-moving cyber threats. Leveraging market-leading AI and machine learning technologies, BluVector radically accelerates the process of spotting and assessing the new advanced threats – like ransomware – that evade typical defenses.
“We’re honored to be chosen as a winner of the Red Herring Top 100 North America,” said Kris Lovejoy, CEO of BluVector. “Our innovative technology is helping organizations respond to advanced cyber security attacks up to 80 percent more quickly and with more efficacy than with traditional approaches.”
Red Herring’s editors have been evaluating the world’s startups and tech companies for over two decades. It gives them the ability to see through the industry’s hype to pick firms that will continue on a trajectory to success. Brands such as Alibaba, Google, Kakao, Skype, Spotify, Twitter and YouTube have all been singled out in Red Herring’s storied history.
“2017’s crop of Top 100 winners has been among our most intriguing yet,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and chairman of Red Herring. “North America has led the way in tech for so many years, and to see such unique, pioneering entrepreneurs and companies here in California, which is in many ways the heartland of the industry, has been a thrilling experience. What has excited me most is to see so many people forging niches in high-tech and cutting edge sectors. Some of the technical wizardry and first-rate business models showcased here at the conference has been fantastic to learn about. We believe BluVector embodies the drive, skill and passion on which tech thrives. BluVector should be proud of its achievement - the competition was incredibly strong.”
Following its Top 100 win, BluVector is invited to the next step, which is to present at the Top 100 Global event in November that will encompass the best-in-show from the Top 100 Europe, North America and Asia.
