The second annual list of the world’s most innovative providers of digital solutions helping financial services firms fight off cyber-attacks and protect their data was announced today by FinTech Global, a specialist research firm.

The CyberTech industry for financial services has seen huge growth over the last four years as operations are increasingly moving to the cloud and organisations expand their spending on securing their digital infrastructure. Total annual investments in the sector grew from $0.7bn in 2016 to over $6.2bn last year. That's an increase of nearly nine times at a CAGR of 72.5%.

As a result, the competition to be identified as one of the leading 100 CyberTech companies globally was even fiercer this year. A panel of analysts and industry experts voted from a list of over 1,000 companies produced by FinTech Global. The finalists were recognised for their innovative use of technology to solve a significant industry problem, or to generate cost savings or efficiency improvements across the security value chain.

“Security executives in financial services need to be aware of the latest innovation and threats in the market in order to protect client and company data as well as fend off cyber and financial criminals,” said Richard Sachar, director at FinTech Global. “The CyberTech100 list helps them do just that and identify new technologies which will have lasting impact on the industry.”
