Alameda, CA – November 13, 2023 – Cerby, the comprehensive access management platform for nonstandard applications, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Cerby to its 2023 Stellar Startups list in the Security category. This annual list, previously known as CRN Emerging Vendors, recognizes fast-rising technology manufacturers committed to delivering leading-edge solutions that propel innovation and growth in the IT channel.
Companies on the 2023 Stellar Startups list are all six years old or younger. They are selected across categories, including artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML), application development/DevOps, big data, business applications, cloud, data center, Internet of Things (IoT), networking/unified communications, security, and storage.
Cerby saves organizations time and money by automating manual tasks, like offboarding and 2FA enrollment, and providing IAM professionals with deep visibility and control of employee-onboarded applications. Its patent-pending access orchestration engine is notably the first and only in the marketplace to make passwordless authentication an immediate reality for nonstandard applications. Furthermore, Cerby is scaling AI with LLMs to bolster proactive threat detection capabilities. As a result, its system is more intelligent and enables security teams to pinpoint abnormal behaviors faster and more accurately by analyzing vast amounts of unstructured data ensuring even nonstandard applications benefit from state-of-the-art security insights.
The technology vendors featured on the CRN 2023 Stellar Startups list have a deep understanding of the unique needs of the IT industry, enabling solution providers to overcome complicated market challenges, increase bottom-line revenue, and deliver solutions that will ensure the IT channel’s continued success.
“With the 2023 Stellar Startups list, CRN spotlights emerging technology vendors creating groundbreaking products that support customer and solution provider success in the ever-changing IT channel,” said Jennifer Follett, vice president of U.S. Content and Executive Editor of CRN at The Channel Company. “As a trusted industry resource, the Stellar Startups list empowers solution providers with exclusive insights into the latest cutting-edge IT channel technologies.”
“We are honored to be spotlighted in CRN’s prestigious Stellar Startups list,” said Belsasar Lepe, CEO and co-founder of Cerby. “To be recognized as a leader in security and for our commitment to innovation is further testament to the hard work and dedication of our team. As we work alongside our customers and partners, we will continue to develop the solutions they need to close the gap in applications that do not work with their identity provider and bring visibility and security to all their apps.”
The CRN 2023 Stellar Startups list will be featured in the December 2023 issue of CRN Magazine and online at CRN.com/StellarStartups.
About Cerby
Cerby provides identity teams with the only comprehensive access management platform for nonstandard applications. Harnessing the power of identity providers, Cerby removes the need for manual tools and compensating controls (like enterprise password managers) by automating everyday human security tasks based on single sign-on and lifecycle management cues from upstream identity providers. This allows Cerby to protect any application independent of standards support. Cerby's patent-pending access orchestration engine is the first and only one to make passwordless authentication an immediate reality for nonstandard applications. Cerby saves time and money by automating manual tasks, like offboarding and 2FA enrollment, and providing IAM professionals with deep visibility and control of employee-onboarded applications. With Cerby, identity teams can extend access, minimize risk, and lower costs.
Since we released our offering in 2022, Cerby's platform has enabled clients like L'Oréal, Fox, Colgate-Palmolive, Dentsu, and Televisa to detect nonstandard apps and guide business users to more secure alternatives, all while keeping everything under the umbrella of their identity provider.
