Orlando — February 24, 2022 — BlackCloak, the first Concierge Cybersecurity & Privacy™ Protection Platform for Executives and High-Profile Individuals, today announced that it has won “Gold” in the privacy protection category of the 2022 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards. The leader in digital executive protection was selected out of 900 award entries for its unique approach to protecting the personal privacy, devices, and homes of executives, high-profile and high-net-worth  individuals. 

“We congratulate BlackCloak for the recognition as a Gold award winner in the Privacy award category of the 2022 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards,” said Holger Schulze, CEO of Cybersecurity Insiders and founder of the 500,000-member Information Security Community group on LinkedIn, which organizes the 7th annual Cybersecurity Excellence Awards. “All winners reflect the very best in innovation and excellence in tackling today’s urgent cybersecurity challenges.”

We’re very appreciative of the Cybersecurity Excellence Award voters and judges recognizing the progress we’ve made at reducing this complex problem.”
