Security News > 2023 > March > These 15 European startups are set to take the cybersecurity world by storm

Google has announced the startups chosen for its Cybersecurity Startups Growth Academy.

The 15 selected startups are from eight countries and were chosen from over 120 applicants.

The selected companies will receive mentoring sessions from Google experts, including former VirusTotal and Mandiant startups.

GoodAccess: Global cybersecurity platform for the age of remote working, which brings to the world the simplest way to deploy Zero Trust Network Access.

Nymiz: Startup offers AI-based personal data anonymization software - enabling you to "Protect your data while unlocking its value." Passbolt: Company serving 15,000 organizations worldwide - "Including F500 companies, the defense industry, universities" - which builds an open-source, enterprise password manager.

"Involving startups in Europe's forward defense isn't only good strategy; increasingly, it's a matter of urgency. As many as 92% of the region's SMEs recognize that cybersecurity is important to them, but only 16% feel very well prepared for an attack. That's according to new research we've released in partnership with Kantar -"Europe's SMEs in the Digital Decade 2030" - which also finds that attackers targeting unprepared companies can get more data in less time than ever before, due to the smallest cybersecurity lapses," Royal Hansen, VP of Engineering for Privacy, Safety, and Security at Google, wrote in a blog post.
