BI.ZONE wins “Russian Internet Security” award

At the final of Digital Peaks Award held in Skolkovo Technopark on December 14,BI.ZONE won the “Russian Internet Security” award. This prize was established by the Coordination Center for TLD RU/РФ.

The Digital Peaks Award is presented to Russian developers of the best IT security solutions that increase the efficiency and overall performance of modern companies. The Expert Council that evaluates each project on a ten-point scale has highly appreciated the BI.ZONE's work in providing corporate information security and data protection solutions.

The danger of cybercrime is growing every day, especially in the financial industry which remains the main target for most criminals. According to the General Prosecutor’s Office, in the first half of 2017, cybercrime in Russia has increased by more than 30%. The number of crimes in the IT industry has increased sixfold since 2013.

BI.ZONE fights against cybercriminals and protects businesses of various industries. Our hard work pays off: over the past year, we have managed to block more than 2,000 domains with malicious software in the Runet alone, as well as over 700 websites secretly collecting user account data of bank and payment systems customers.

The Digital Peaks Award proves that our work doesn’t go unnoticed, and we truly appreciate that. In 2018, the overall number of cyberattacks is likely to grow, but the BI.ZONE team will continue to work hard to protect our clients and their customers.
