With CRN’s Stellar Startup Award, Cloud Range caps off a year of rapid growth and industry recognition
Cloud Range, the industry’s leading cyber range solution, today announced CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has included Cloud Range on its 2024 Stellar Startups list in the Security category. This prestigious list highlights fast-rising technology vendors that are driving innovation and fostering growth in the IT channel with groundbreaking products.
Companies recognized as Stellar Startups must be six years old or younger. They are selected from categories that include artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML), big data, business applications, cloud, data center, Internet of Things (IoT), networking/unified communications, security, and storage.
Cloud Range stands out for its simulation-based cybersecurity training platform, which measurably enhances the skills and preparedness of security teams. Unlike traditional training, Cloud Range’s platform immerses teams in live-fire simulations across IT, OT, IoT, and cloud environments. The system is aligned with the MITRE ATT&CK and NICE frameworks to ensure training aligns with industry standards. At the same time, its Performance Portal™ tracks progress, ultimately reporting on a security team’s level of preparedness for an infinite number of attack vectors. Cloud Range utilizes threat intelligence to dynamically design and deliver attack content to customers, ensuring they stay prepared for the latest threats. This comprehensive approach improves detection, response, and recovery times, helping organizations significantly reduce cyber risk.
“Receiving the CRN Stellar Cyber award reflects our dedication to equipping cybersecurity teams with practical, real-world skills with measurable outcomes,” said Debbie Gordon, CEO of Cloud Range. “Cloud Range ensures that security professionals are fully prepared to respond to complex threats with accuracy and confidence, empowering them to protect their organizations effectively in any situation.”
Each technology vendor featured on the CRN 2024 Stellar Startups list is distinguished by their commitment to innovation and to delivering cutting-edge offerings that help solution providers distinguish themselves in today’s fast-changing IT landscape. This annual list serves as an invaluable resource for solution providers making business-critical strategic decisions and exploring new technologies and services to add to their portfolios to give them a competitive advantage and drive success.
“We’re thrilled to congratulate the innovative companies named to this year’s Stellar Startups list,” said Jennifer Follett, Vice President of U.S. Content and Executive Editor of CRN at The Channel Company. “This achievement reflects each organization’s dedication to solving IT channel challenges, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with leading-edge technologies, and contributing to the success of their partners. We look forward to seeing how they continue to transform the industry going forward.”
This award further highlights Cloud Range’s growing list of achievements this year, including the launch of the first-of-its-kind Incident Commander Training, which equips security professionals with the critical skills to manage incidents quickly and effectively. Additionally, Cloud Range was ranked No. 44 on Inc. Magazine’s list of the Fastest-Growing Private Companies in the Southeast Region, named a finalist for the 2024 SC Media Best IT Security-Related Training Program and received top-tier Best-in-Class recognition in Datos Insights’ comprehensive analysis of cyber range solutions.
