Digital Element, the global IP geolocation and audience insights leader, today (6th May, 2024) announced the company has won the Groundbreaking Cybersecurity Analytics and the Publisher’s Choice of Threat Intelligence awards from Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM), the industry’s leading electronic information security magazine.

"As the cybersecurity landscape becomes increasingly complex, IP address analytics are becoming indispensable for organisations seeking robust security solutions,” said Jerrod Stoller, president of Digital Element. “We knew the competition for these awards would be tough and with leading infosec experts serving as judges we couldn’t be more pleased to receive this award.”

“We scoured the globe looking for cybersecurity innovators that could make a huge difference and potentially help turn the tide against the exponential growth in cyber-crime. Digital Element is absolutely worthy of these coveted awards and consideration for deployment in your environment,” said Yan Ross, Global Editor of Cyber Defense Magazine.

Digital Element delivers detailed intelligence on IP address activities, offering valuable insights that guide decision-making. This "IP Intelligence data" encompasses more than just geographical information, providing a deeper understanding of a device or its user's intentions.

The company's in-depth analytics reveal vital audience details such as VPN and proxy detection, device counts per IP address, IP stability, and more. By identifying VPNs and proxies, users can block harmful attempts to disguise IP addresses, enhancing control over the dissemination of digital content like streaming media and advertisements.

R&D is at the heart of Digital Element’s IP analytics technology. Our dedicated team of industry experts continuously innovates new ways to mine IP address data for uncovered context and the hidden clues that indicate user intent, and potentially bad actors trying to disrupt legitimate business. 

The key to any successful cyber defence program is identifying a threat before it becomes problematic. Digital Element’s vast collective of IP address intelligence provides businesses with the tools and insights to proactively identify suspicious behaviour, revolutionising a new approach to cybersecurity.
