Baltimore, MD – December 21, 2020

Point3 Security, the leader in advanced training of cybersecurity professionals through gamified challenges, is excited to announce that its ESCALATE ecosystem, a gamified, hands-on platform that helps cultivate and measure cybersecurity talent, has been named a winner in the 2020 CyberSecured Awards!

“ESCALATE^™ provides engaging, ongoing training that’s important to cybersecurity professionals who need to keep up with the changing demands of the industry, and we’re thrilled that it’s being recognized,” said Evan Dornbush, Point3 Security CEO. “Adversaries come in all shapes and sizes, and we’re proud to be able to help organizations put together the best, most diverse workforce they need.”

The CyberSecured Awards are put on by 1105 Media and honor the outstanding product development achievements of manufacturers and suppliers whose products or services are considered particularly noteworthy in the transformation of cybersecurity. In the inaugural year of this independently judged contest, winners were honored in 23 award categories, and ESCALATE was named winner in the Cybersecurity Training category.

“We have had the pleasure of wading into the cybersecurity world, in large part, because of our CyberSecured e-news product,” said Ralph C. Jensen, editor in chief of Security Todaymagazine. “Because we appreciate showing new products that will make a difference, we felt a product contest was in order. We were right. Some of the most amazing technologies have been part of this effort to brag about cybersecurity platforms, and we’re proud to be part of that.”
