Industry-Leading Anti-Ransomware Platform Identified as a Breakthrough Technology

Halcyon, the world's first cyber resilience platform designed from day one to defeat ransomware, today announced that it has been named to Fast Company's third annual Next Big Things in Tech list, honoring technology breakthroughs that promise to transform the future. The Halcyon Anti-Ransomware Platform is recognized on the list for its ability to detect, prevent, and recover from ransomware attacks, protecting organizations in every industry from the ever-growing threat of ransomware. Fast Company recognized a variety of technologies for their cutting-edge advancements and potential to impact consumers, businesses, and society overall, and identified Halcyon as the only organization focused solely on combating ransomware.

"While much of the previous generation of endpoint tooling has been built to stop or investigate common malware, they have been unable to mitigate the explosive growth of ransomware,” said Jon Miller, CEO and Co-Founder, Halcyon. ”We are the only dedicated anti-ransomware solution that delivers operational resilience against ransomware, and our success is a testament to the revolutionary Halcyon approach creating real impact in the fight against ransomware. We are honored to be recognized by Fast Company as one of this year's Next Big Things in Tech."

Global 2000 companies rely on Halcyon to augment existing EPP/EDR/XDR platforms and reverse the impact of ransomware attacks in minutes. The Halcyon Anti-Ransomware Platform is the first and only self-healing, purpose-built ransomware prevention solution that hardens endpoints against incoming attacks and halts attacks in progress. The multi-layered Halcyon protection with endpoint resilience protects organizations from disruptive ransomware attacks, maximizes ROI by minimizing a successful attack’s impact, and prevents the exfiltration of sensitive data. Halcyon provides organizations with peace of mind, knowing that their valuable data and systems are safeguarded against one of the most prevalent and damaging cyber threats.

"The Next Big Things in Tech is not just a look around the corner—it's a look around the corner after that," says Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief of Fast Company. "These are the products and ideas that will define technological innovation for the rest of this decade and beyond—and solve some of the world's most pressing issues. We are thrilled to honor the organizations that are making them a reality."
