"We are pleased to have been honored by SC Magazine readers and security practitioners. This is the first time a software-based big data platform has won this award and is a clear indication that security intelligence is undergoing a radical and needed shift," said Tim Mather, chief information security officer and vice president of security and compliance, Splunk.
