Selected finalists to pitch at PwC Cybersecurity DayS

After an international call for submissions, with more than 20 applications, PwC Luxembourg has selected five cybersecurity companies with relevant solutions for the Luxembourgish market. 

The Cybersecurity Solution of the Year Award will be conferred by the Jury to the candidate that demonstrates excellence at all levels, from strategy to execution. The Awards Night marks the highlight of the Cybersecurity Week Luxembourg on Thursday 29, October 2020.

This year the Award Night will be adapted due to the Covid health measures in place and will go “digital”, more information here.

 

This year, the five finalists are: 

DataVaccinator SARL
DataVaccinator “vaccinates” your sensitive data and protects it against abuse. At the very moment when data is being generated, DataVaccinator splits that data and uses advanced pseudonymisation techniques to separate content from identity information. Managing these two categories via independent data services mitigates data privacy and security risks and ensures compliance with GDPR and other regulation. By industrializing these processes, DataVaccinator makes pseudonymisation and secure data management efficient and affordable. With its open source model, DataVaccinator gives programmers the power to use its modules in any application, thereby increasing security of data and lowering costs of data management.

decentriq
Decentriq's solution combines confidential computing and machine learning to enable simple and safe global deployment of AI applications.

pEp Security SA
p?p (“pretty Easy privacy”) is the first encryption software which is easy to use for everyone, its technology is platform independent and can easily be plugged-in into any environment. p?p is a compliant solution regarding regulations like GDPR (EU), GDSV (GER), HIPAA (US), SWIFT CSP (Banking), etc. Encryption technology is complicated and requires specialised Know-How to be used day-to-day. p?p has solved key, identity and trust management and makes the use of privacy solutions easy. p?p is the first reliable, extensible, user-friendly encryption solution available. It allows peer-to-peer and end-to-end technology, which enables opportunistic encryption automatically.

Wultra
Malwarelytics protects banking apps from mobile malware on the Android platform. You can plug it into your banking or fintech app (as an SDK) and start protecting it against mobile malware attacks in less than 10 minutes. Malwarelytics uses advanced AI algorithms and machine learning and data collected from existing malware databases to identify malicious apps and zero-day malware.

Malwarelytics is a fully trusted add-on, already deployed in the leading European banks.
