We were excited to hear that eSecurity Planet worked with [Gartner](https://www.gartner.com/reviews/market/security-awareness-computer-based-training) and [Cybersecurity Ventures](https://cybersecurityventures.com/cybersecurity-500/#home/?view_1_page=1) to compile a ranking of the [Top Cybersecurity Companies](https://www.esecurityplanet.com/products/top-cybersecurity-companies.html). They listed the Top 15 and KnowBe4 ranks at #4!

**How They Did It**

Cybersecurity vendors were assigned scores based on their annual revenue, range of products, appearance in *eSecurity Planet*'s [Top Security Vendor lists](https://www.esecurityplanet.com/products), Gartner Magic Quadrant reports, Gartner Peer Review ratings, and their rankings in the Cybersecurity 500. The top 15 vendors are listed below followed by 10 honorable mentions. Here is the full list:

1. Microsoft
2. Fortinet
3. IBM
4. KnowBe4
5. Symantec
6. Cisco
7. Palo Alto Networks
8. Splunk
9. McAfee
10. Check Point
11. Sophos
12. Proofpoint
13. Imperva
14. RSA (Dell Technologies)
15. Trend Micro

We are proud and honored to be among these excellent companies.

Thanks very much. We do our level best to continue to improve every day!

Warm regards,
