APERIO Systems was selected as the most innovative startup in cyber security at “The Cybertech Startup Competition powered by YL Ventures," that took place during CyberTech 2017. Yoav Leitersdorf, the founder of YL Ventures, awarded the winning prize to company founders Yevgeni Nogin and Michael Shalyt. Winning over dozens of other applicants, APERIO Systems secures critical control systems with a last line of defense against both internal and external cyber threats and malicious actors. APERIO Systems enables unprecedented resilience and operational integrity for critical infrastructure such as power plants, water and waste control, manufacturing, oil and gas, energy, transportation, pharma, and food and beverage. The company uses statistical physics and state-of-the-art machine learning techniques to detect operational data forgery attempts and reconstruct the true state of industrial control systems in real time.

Finalists in the competition included Intezer, who developed a “Shazam"-like technology for software, able to identify the name and manufacturer of any unknown file or code, be it secure software or malware; Cymulate – a platform for extended simulation of cyber-attacks, enabling multiple controlled cyber attacks in the main attack channels simultaneously at any given time; and Cybellum, who developed a technology that stops zero-days attacks in the initial and critical stage of the breach.
The startup competition was led by a distinguished panel of judges – all leading executives from information protection companies, cybersecurity industries, and technological corporations as well as partners of American VC funds. The judges included David Cross, Cloud Security Engineering Director at Google Security and Privacy Organization; Glenn Chisholm, CTO of Cylance; Jacques Benoski, Partner at USVP; Jay Leek, CISO of The Blackstone Group; and Doug Russell, Managing Director & SVP of Strategy & Corporate Development at MassMutual Ventures (Link to the complete Judges list).
APERIO Systems won two tickets to the prestigious RSA convention, the world's leading cyber conference, being held this coming February in San Francisco. This will be an incredible opportunity for an Israeli startup to attend the largest and most influential Cyber security conference in the world.
