TEL AVIV, Israel, Feb. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Alcide is a winner in the 2017-18 Cloud Awards Program in the category Most Promising Start-Up.

In 2017-18, categories include Best Software as a Service from the US, Best Software as a Service from outside the US, Most Innovative Use of Data, "Best in Mobile" Cloud Solution and Most Promising Start-Up.
Ranny Nachmias CEO said: "Alcide is honored to be recognized as the most promising startup in the Cloud Computing space. Alcide is bringing a new kind of security to cloud-native data centers, which have become challenging to secure, with its unique visibility and advanced threat protection capabilities. We are excited about our developing contribution to the space."

Cloud Awards organizer Larry Johnson said: "What was a difficult task narrowing down the submissions to arrive at the final shortlist becomes a truly daunting challenge by the time we have to arrive at the list of ultimate winners. Entrants showed unique strengths and the ever-important commitment to innovation while leveraging cloud technologies - whether or not they found a place on our shortlist.
"Today's bleeding-edge technology is tomorrow's legacy infrastructure, services and user interface. As ever, a balance has to be struck between this innovation and driving adoption – that's what we are increasingly seeing in this fast-paced environment.
"Again, this year, the many entrants for the Software-as-a-Service category have been particularly strong, and we would encourage everyone to keep their eyes on the upcoming SaaS Awards, catering specifically to this area of cloud computing, which will continue to accept entries for 2018 until the spring."
