Cy4Data Labs, the first cybersecurity company to deliver in-use data protection through quantum-proof encryption, announced that its flagship solution, Cy4Secure, has earned a Silver Medal in the Datos Insights 2025 Cybersecurity Impact Awards within the Ransomware and Recovery Solution category.
The recognition comes amid a surge in global ransomware attacks that have disrupted critical sectors—from aviation and healthcare to manufacturing—underscoring the urgent need for robust data protection. Cy4Data Labs’ breakthrough encryption technology safeguards in-use data, offering unprecedented protection for enterprises, governments, and academic institutions worldwide.
“Cy4Data Labs’ revolutionary encryption solution, Cy4Secure, addresses the fundamental vulnerability behind ransomware attacks by ensuring data remains encrypted even during active use—rendering stolen or compromised data completely worthless to attackers,” said Jane Ginn, Cybersecurity Fellow at Datos Insights. “By reimagining cybersecurity at the data layer, Cy4Data enables the management of millions of encryption keys simultaneously, securing even individual fields or words without disrupting normal business operations. This granular approach allows organizations to maintain full system functionality while ensuring total data protection.”
The Datos Insights Cybersecurity Impact Awards recognize pioneering organizations driving innovation in cybersecurity solutions for financial institutions, insurers, and enterprises. As the cybersecurity landscape evolves, Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) increasingly require next-generation defenses that leverage AI, data intelligence, and automation to address emerging threats.
“Ransomware isn’t going away, but with Cy4Secure, we’ve effectively eliminated the incentive for attackers by making stolen data useless,” said Lance Smith, CEO and Co-Founder of Cy4Data Labs. “This award validates our mission to close the gap in the cybersecurity ecosystem by protecting in-use data, streamlining governance, and embedding trust as a foundational element of digital infrastructure.”
