We are among the Top 5 Security Startups

These days we are going through lots of excitement and thrill for all the new things that is happening in our unique start-up i.e iViZ. Security is itself a challenging and exciting space these days. Added to it is our innovative automated solution for penetration testing that will redefine the way security assessment is carried out. We are going through raising our fund for scaling up business operations and hitting the market as fast as we can and become a leader in security. Our dream: A global security product based company from India which the world would know simply by its mere name " iViZ" and moving towards delivering a true sense of security. Yesterday i was doing the usual thing of desperately trying to bring things in place at iViZ. Suddenly came a mail which heightened the excitement like a fresh dose of esctasy :) We got selected as the top 5 security startups in the Global security challenge in the asian leg. Here is a bit of what this means: The Global Security Challenge is the first annual business plan competition to find and select the most promising security technology startups in the world- jointly conducted by London school of Business, Department of Homeland security, US and Pentagon. Security is a top priority for governments and companies as terrorist and criminal attacks continue to threaten major cities and economies. But while this market is growing, it remains difficult for innovators to break through the barriers of government procurement and to appear on the radar-screens of integrators and VCs. The Global Security Challenge aims to change this by giving entrepreneurs the chance to find capital, partners and customers. After being elected as one of the Top innovative technological startup last year by Intel and UC Berkley, yet this is another feather to our cap and to assure that the next big thing in security has just yet started. Cheers!
