NEW YORK, Aug. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Claroty, the cyber-physical systems (CPS) protection company, has been named to the Forbes 2024 Cloud 100 – the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world, published by Forbes in partnership with Bessemer Venture Partners and Salesforce Ventures – for the third consecutive year.

"We're thrilled to receive this honor and be named as one of the top private cloud companies in the world for three years in a row," said Yaniv Vardi, CEO of Claroty. "Securing mission-critical infrastructure is of increasing importance to organizations and governments across the globe as we see more and more cyber attacks disrupting critical operations. This award validates that the market has recognized Claroty as a leader that has redefined CPS protection with an unrivaled industry-centric platform to protect the systems that underpin our daily lives."

Claroty xDome is a modular, cloud-based CPS protection platform that provides organizations with built-for-CPS solutions for asset discovery & asset management, exposure management, network protection, and threat detection. Claroty xDome allows users to manage, monitor, and control their CPS security solutions within a unified platform – making it easier for organizations to streamline risk management, apply network-based security controls, respond to threats, and manage their overall security posture with a comprehensive view of their CPS environment in real-time. Claroty's dynamic approach empowers organizations to reduce the cyber risk that results from increased connectivity with the quickest time-to-value and a lower total cost of ownership – regardless of the scale or maturity of their CPS cybersecurity program.

For the ninth consecutive year, the Cloud 100 reviews submissions from hundreds of cloud startups and private companies each year. The Cloud 100 evaluation process involved ranking companies across four factors: market leadership (35%), estimated valuation (30%), operating metrics (20%), and people & culture (15%). For market leadership, the Cloud 100 enlists the help of a judging panel of public cloud company CEOs who assist in evaluating and ranking their private company peers.

"For nine years, the Forbes Cloud 100 list has recognized the leading private cloud companies in the world, from AI to work software, infrastructure to security," said Alex Konrad, the Forbes editor of the Cloud 100. "This year's list is the strongest group of standouts yet, with revenue, valuations and growth that will eventually make for historic IPOs."

"Across nine years of data, we have yet to see as competitive of a cohort as the 2024 Cloud 100. The list value reached $820 billion this year, the highest list value in Cloud 100 history," said Mary D'Onofrio, partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. "Unsurprisingly, AI is now the highest valued category. We continue to be excited by how AI companies are scaling rapidly, transforming the cloud, and propelling the next wave of growth, driving a massive year-over-year jump in market cap of the list of over $150 billion."

"The past year, our industry has seen a generational step forward in innovation, and with AI leading the charge, we are witnessing one of the most important platform shifts in decades," said Paul Drews, managing partner at Salesforce Ventures. "The Cloud 100 list represents the best of the best, and we've never been more excited about what the future holds, not only for the cloud but for the entire technology industry. We are proud of what these founders and their communities have already accomplished, and look forward to seeing how they continue to transform the industry in the future."

The Forbes 2024 Cloud 100 and 20 Rising Stars lists are published online at www.forbes.com/cloud100. Highlights of the list appear in the August/September 2024 issue of Forbes magazine.
