Recently Honored as the Second Fastest Growing Technology Company in Israel, Tufin's Phenomenal Revenue Growth Leads to Top Spot on Deloitte's EMEA Ranking
Tufin Technologies, the market-leading provider of Security Lifecycle Management Solutions, today announced that it has ranked #10 on the 2010 Deloitte Technology Fast 500 EMEA, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology companies in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Having already ranked second on Deloitte Israel's Technology Fast 50 ranking, Tufin's phenomenal year-over-year growth - 5359% over five years - also landed it a top spot for the EMEA list, making its achievement even more noteworthy.
"Making the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 EMEA ranking is a testament to a company's commitment to technology," said David Halstead, Deloitte United Kingdom and partner in charge of the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 EMEA programme. "Tufin's top ranking in Israel - a country known for being a hotbed of technology innovation, combined with its #10 rank in EMEA is an even stronger testament to its vision and ability to execute. Its incredible success in a difficult economic climate is a tremendous accomplishment for any technology company, and Tufin deserves full recognition for its accomplishments."
The Deloitte program is based on percentage revenue growth over five years and recognizes all areas of technology and includes both public and private companies. Founded in 2005, Tufin has provided its 600+ customers with the ability to automate critical but highly error prone, manual network security processes, enabling them to cost-effectively manage their network security policy, comply with regulatory standards, and minimize IT risk. Tufin's products slash the time and cost of managing these processes by more than half - delivering a compelling value proposition in a fast-growing industry.
To determine Tufin's position on the list, Deloitte reviewed fiscal year revenues over five years (2005-2009), calculated the revenue growth percentage over five years, and compared it to the growth of participating technology companies, all of which held enough confidence in their financial prowess to invite close scrutiny of their economic performance.
"Tufin has been extremely fortunate to have developed the right set of solutions at the right time, and even more fortunate to have executed on the opportunity in a way that has sustained our growth," said Ruvi Kitov, CEO, Tufin Technologies. "Having this validated by Deloitte is an incredible honor and motivates us to work even harder to deliver our customers the most innovative, effective and useful solutions for managing network security operations."
This prestigious honor is the latest in a series of accolades and honors Tufin has received throughout 2010. In addition to landing the #2 spot on the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 Israel list, at the end of October 2010 Tufin SecureChange Workflow won Network Computing's prestigious "Computing Security" award for Best Bench Tested Solution of the Year 2010, based on a standout review that appeared in the May 2010 issue. In July it won a prestigious Stevie Award - "Innovator of the Year," from the International Business Association, and in June it received a 5-star review (top rating) in SC Magazine of Tufin SecureTrack, its flagship firewall operations solution. Earlier in the year, it received an honorable mention on StartupBusiness.com's list of Hot 100 Startups and being named a Red Herring EMEA "Hot 100" finalist.
This award dovetails with the general availability release of Tufin Security Suite (TSS) 5.2 - the latest combined offering of SecureTrack, its firewall operations, auditing and compliance product and SecureChange Workflow, its security change automation product. Featuring new network topology intelligence, multi-tenancy management, total support for Juniper Networks JunOS firewalls, enhanced Fortinet support, and automatic change verification, version 5.2 enables organizations to automate network security policy and change management at a much greater depth and breadth. Also generally available as part of the 5.2 offering is a custom solution for Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), that enables MSSPs to increase their service offerings and value-add to enterprise customers.
