CYBERBIT is a subsidiary of Elbit Systems, Israel's major cyber security provider and a significant participant in the world market. In line with its expansion goals, Elbit Systems procured the cyber and intelligence division of global major Nice. This move resulted in the formation of the market-altering company, CYBERBIT.
"The thinking behind establishing a subsidiary instead of an operational unit was to offer the company the flexibility to operate freely in the global market, especially in the commercial, non-defense segments," said Frost & Sullivan Consulting Manager Yaki Baranes. "In a relatively short time, CYBERBIT has developed impressive, high-end, standalone products and fully integrated solutions that deliver end-to-end capabilities to its intelligence and cyber security customers."
CYBERBIT's cyber security solution, CyberShield Suite, is a comprehensive suite of capabilities that combine advanced malware detection, mitigation and response across multiple types of IT and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) networks. These product advantages have helped CYBERBIT win major deals in Israel and establish itself as a local leader. The company has made the most of this popularity to win foreign projects as well.
In May 2015, it was announced that CYBERBIT acquired Nice Systems' Cyber and Intelligence Division. This is a bold move and will have far-reaching implications. First, Nice's cyber and intelligence solutions are complementary to CYBERBIT's, which strengthens the latter's solutions and product portfolio. The acquired assets allow the company to provide end-to-end and fully integrated solutions, as well as standalone cyber products to commercial end users. Second, the acquisition automatically created a new cyber company that almost overnight became a significant player to be reckoned with, as it inherited the clients of both Elbit and Nice.
Major defense and security companies find it more viable to deal with projects instead of selling cyber products due to issues of scale and profitability. This creates a situation wherein the market for small- to-medium-sized enterprises is almost never addressed. Consequently, CYBERBIT's ability to work with all types of companies to sell a product, in addition to full integration, places it in a unique and superior position.
Krishna Srinivasan, Global President and Managing Partner, Frost & Sullivan summed up, "With increasing globalization comes increasing competition, and the companies that thrive are the ones that are a step ahead of their competition. Frost & Sullivan is pleased to recognize CYBERBIT for its innovative strategies in strengthening its brand and thereby, demand for its products, in the intensely competitive cyber intelligence and security market."
Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents this Award to the company that has leveraged competitive intelligence to successfully execute a competitive strategy that results in stronger market share, competitive brand positioning and customer satisfaction.
Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Awards recognize companies in a variety of regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in areas such as leadership, technological innovation, customer service and strategic product development. Industry analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analysis and extensive secondary research to identify best practices in the industry.
