Who will present the projects
The first cohort, which started an acceleration program in late June, included ten teams.
Products in the acceleration program were developed by:
- REST — their Sakhar data anonymization technology allows you to hide information even when a third party has encryption keys;
- Ukrainian Interbank Payment Systems Members Association EMA — online service for tracking unauthorized payments with web and API-interfaces;
- Unlink VR Inc. — integrated post-quantum encryption system;
- Cyberlands BV — reproduced and scaled pentests and cybersecurity audits for the enterprise;
- Security Steps — an automated education in the field of protection against cyberattacks focused on critical infrastructure.
The cyber accelerator program is unique as it is the first program focused on service companies.
- H-X Technologies — a full range of services for industrial cybersecurity;
- Intelli Group — cybersecurity services for SMEs;
- ITEXE — information security services for the financial sector;
- Radar — monitoring of sensitive data leakage;
- Sekurno — information security services for the subscription model.
