Pondurance® Wins Trifecta in 2025 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards

Selected as winner in MDR, healthcare, and virtual CISO categories

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pondurance, the leading provider of managed detection and response (MDR) cybersecurity services specifically engineered to eliminate breach risks for midmarket organizations, today announced that it has been selected as winner by the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards in the categories of MDR service, healthcare cybersecurity solution, and virtual chief information security officer (CISO).

Midmarket organizations have struggled to protect themselves from cyberattacks and data breaches compared to larger enterprises. Pondurance believes that they deserve the same level of protection with quality tools and services that ensure a strong cybersecurity profile, despite challenges from lower funding levels and difficulties attracting the best cybersecurity talent. It is our purpose as an organization to provide that level of cyber protection.

“We congratulate Pondurance on the outstanding achievement of being selected as winner in the ‘Managed Detection and Response (MDR)’, Healthcare Cybersecurity’ and ‘Virtual CISO’ categories of the 2025 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards,” said Holger Schulze, founder of Cybersecurity Insiders and organizer of the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards. “As we celebrate 10 years of recognizing excellence in cybersecurity, their extraordinary innovation, customer adoption, and leadership set them apart in a very competitive industry.”

The recently announced Pondurance Platform 2.0, which forms the foundation for its MDR service, highlights the level of innovation that Pondurance is committed to in order to stay ahead of bad actors. This innovative, cloud-native platform is pivotal in using risk-based technologies for accelerating the detection and response to active threats to eliminate data breach risks for the midmarket.

“We are honored to have been acknowledged as winners in this year’s Cybersecurity Excellence Awards in three categories that are at the heart of how we protect our customers with distinctive, risk-based cybersecurity software and services,” said Doug Howard, CEO of Pondurance. “This recognition reflects the relentless commitment we have to protecting our customers from cyberattack and risks that can result from data breaches.”
