It’s no secret that cybersecurity concerns are growing. This past year has seen massive breaches, such as the breach of National Public Data (with 2.7 billion records stolen), and several large breaches of Snowflake customers such as Ticketmaster, Advance Auto Parts and AT&T. More than 165 companies were impacted by the Snowflake-linked breaches alone, according to a Mandiant investigation.
According to CheckPoint research, global cyberattacks increased by 30% in the second quarter of 2024, to 1,636 weekly attacks per organization. An IBM report says the average cost of a data breach globally rose 10% in 2024, to $4.8 million.
So, it’s probably not that surprising that Orlando, Fla.-based cybersecurity firm ThreatLocker has ballooned to 450 employees since its 2017 launch. InformationWeek caught up with ThreatLocker CEO Danny Jenkins at the Gartner IT Symposium/XPO in Orlando last month.
