Vercara clinched four wins at the Global InfoSec Awards during the 2023 RSA Conference. Granted by Cyber Defense Magazine, the awards recognise information security innovators around the globe who offer unique and compelling value propositions for their products and services.

“It is an honour to be recognised by Cyber Defense Magazine and these four coveted awards are a testament to the hard work of our dedicated, collaborative and experienced teams,” said Colin Doherty, CEO of Vercara. “Staying ahead of evolving threats is a more difficult task than ever, especially amidst accelerating digitisation and increasingly complex IT infrastructures.

“We are committed to delivering flexible, adaptable and scalable solutions that enable our customers to focus on their business while we focus on keeping their customer interactions uninterrupted and secure.”

Vercara, formerly Neustar Security Services, and its time- and pressure-tested services, achieved the following:

• Vercara won the award for Best Solution: Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP).
• UltraDDoS Protect won the award for Best Solution: Managed Detection and Response (MDR) Service Provider.
• UltraDDR won the award for Cutting Edge: Network Detection and Response. Ultra DDR is a recursive DNS-based protection service aimed at combatting network breaches, ransomware attacks, phishing and supply chain compromise, while enforcing enterprise acceptable use policies for its users.
• UltraDNS² won the award for Market Leader: Network Security and Management. UltraDNS² was developed to enable organisations to protect their authoritative DNS service by implementing redundant DNS solutions.

“Vercara embodies three major features we judges look for to become winners: understanding tomorrow’s threats today, providing a cost-effective solution, and innovating in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next breach,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine.

The 2023 awards mark Cyber Defense Magazine’s tenth year of honouring InfoSec innovators from around the world.
