Kenna Security grew 1912 percent during this period. Kenna Security’s chief executive officer, Karim Toubba, credits a growing enterprise demand for risk-based cybersecurity and vulnerability management as the driving force behind the company’s 1912 percent revenue growth. "CISOs and security teams need more context to tackle mounting cybersecurity challenges and respond to greater organizational demands for cyber risk management,” Toubba said. “A typical enterprise faces millions of vulnerabilities on its systems. It’s simply impractical to manually identify and patch every one of them. The Kenna Security Platform gives companies the intelligence they need to prioritize and remediate the vulnerabilities that pose the greatest risk to their organization." “Congratulations to the Deloitte 2018 Technology Fast 500 winners on this impressive achievement,” said Sandra Shirai, vice chairman, Deloitte LLP, and U.S. technology, media and telecommunications leder. “These companies are innovators who have converted their disruptive ideas into products, services and experiences that can captivate new customers and drive remarkable growth.” “Software, which accounts for nearly two of every three companies on the list, continues to produce some of the most exciting technologies of the 21st century, including innovations in artificial intelligence, predictive analytics and robotics,” said Mohana Dissanayake, partner, Deloitte & Touche LLP, and Industry Leader for technology, media and telecommunications, within Deloitte’s audit and assurance practice. “This year’s ranking demonstrates what is likely a national phenomenon, where many companies from all parts of America are transforming the way we do business by combining breakthrough research and development, entrepreneurship and rapid growth.” About Kenna Security About Deloitte’s 2018 Technology Fast 500™ In order to be eligible for Technology Fast 500 recognition, companies must own proprietary intellectual property or technology that is sold to customers in products that contribute to a majority of the company's operating revenues.
