"This honour from one of the IT Security industry's most respected editorial organisations is a tremendous accomplishment and is a significant milestone in the history of Kaspersky Lab," said Steve Orenberg, president, Kaspersky Lab North America. "Our team of security experts has worked hard to give our customers the best combination of visibility, control and protection and this recognition is the latest example of our hard work paying off. The company will celebrate this win throughout 2013 and is looking forward to defending the title in 2014."

The 2013 Excellence Award winners were chosen by a panel of security professionals from the private and public sector, hand-picked by the magazine's editorial team for their breadth of knowledge and experience in information security.

Cyber risks

"We're proud to acknowledge the achievements of the company and its Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business as the 2013 SC Award Excellence Awards winner," said Illena Armstrong, VP of editorial, SC Magazine. "The cyber risks facing private and public sector are tremendous, but Kaspersky Lab is one of a select few facing this challenge head-on to fend off many would-be attacks."

In the award announcement posted on magazine's web site SC Magazine adds, "Its features range from a ready-to-use template to granular policy controls, all of which help administrators customise Kaspersky Lab's solution to its own organisations' unique needs, thus simplifying the user experience while providing extensive security and management."

"The company continues to make major investments in R&D to develop in-house new technologies to strengthen its portfolio. All its technologies are built from the same code base and work together seamlessly, not cobbled together on the backend. The result is solutions that are more efficient and easier to manage."
