Award Finalist: Contrast Security Application Detection and Response

Less than a month after we at Contrast Security announced Application Detection and Response (ADR), it is already a finalist for a major cybersecurity award. 

The SC Awards named Contrast Security ADR a finalist for 2024’s Best Application Security Solution. The award stands out in a sea of cybersecurity awards because of the caliber of judges and intense competition. The judges come from the security organizations of companies like MasterCard and Amazon.

Jeff Williams, Contrast Security Founder and CTO, summed up the honor nicely.  “Since launching Contrast Security ADR just a few weeks ago, we have heard from our customers, cybersecurity research firms and now independent judges that it fixes cybersecurity’s most neglected blindspot. With ADR, organizations are finally empowered to stop attacks on applications and APIs in production.”

Jeff originally made the case for ADR in a white paper we published a few weeks ago and which has been shared across the AppSec and SecOps communities.
