The Virtual Circle originally became acquainted with Zecurion and the ominous statistics behind the insider security threat in March of 2009. It liked what it saw so much it added Zecurion to its annual top 10 list of companies to watch in the coming year. The Virtual Circle has this to say about Zecurion:

“I ran into Zecurion last year (see this post.) I was intrigued by the company for several reasons, one of which is that it is Russian and few Russian software companies are successful enough to become international. Zecurion does encryption and it does it well. Encryption is, perhaps, the most overlooked area of IT security. In terms of reducing the risk of data loss, encryption probably offers better protection than any other type of IT security products out there (with the possible exception of whitelisting). However, it can get in the way of user activity. One of the virtues of Zecurion’s encryption products is that they are unintrusive.”

Take a look at the Zecurion Web site to learn more about the products and services that earned us a spot on the list. Check out Virtual Circle’s 10 IT Companies to Watch in 2010 to find about the other nine up and coming tech companies predicted to turn heads in the coming year.
