BrandShield Wins Frost & Sullivan’s Digital Risk Protection Award

We are thrilled to announce that BrandShield has been awarded the prestigious 2023 Global Digital Risk Protection New Product Innovation and Best Practices Award, thanks to our outstanding contributions to the field. This comes after we were named in the Top 3 of Frost & Sullivan’s Frost Radar DRP, in 2022.

We’re honored to have been awarded by Frost & Sullivan as a company that’s shaping the global DRP market, and we’re grateful that our commitment to excellence and innovation in brand protection is setting the bar for the industry.

Why Digital Risk Protection Matters

In today’s world, brands are facing more online threats than ever before, from a variety of channels. Scammers and bad actors have endless options for targeting brands and their consumers, from social media impersonations to selling counterfeit products on third-party marketplaces and even creating fake websites to trick unsuspecting consumers into forking over critical financial data.

Digital risk protection is a catch-all term that refers to a business's plan to safeguard both its sales and its good name with customers. Without robust digital risk protection, brands are leaving themselves vulnerable to a plethora of serious consequences, including lower sales, lost revenue, sensitive data leakage, financial challenges stemming from a lack of investor or partner trust, or irreparable damage to their brand reputation.

The Awards Selection Process

Global consulting firm Frost & Sullivan’s proprietary, measurement-based methodology for honoring outstanding companies in their fields is predicated upon an objective, fair evaluation of the technologies and solutions that are making an impact in their respective spaces.

The New Product Innovation Award’s selection process leverages a number of real-world factors, including technological innovation,  revenue growth, customer acquisition, market share, and expansion, and the value of the products and services offered. 

BrandShield emerged as an outstanding candidate in the category of new product innovation due to our continuous business growth and partnership expansion, the huge impact of our platform and solutions, and our proactive approach towards both combatting online threats and ensuring that we are always on top of trending dangers in the online brand protection space.
