Fortinet has been steadily building a reputation as one of the top security companies around. Its revenues are increasing at a fast clip, it comes up repeatedly in eSecurity Planet top vendor lists, has high customer satisfaction ratings and does well in analyst ratings. Gartner gave it top place in unified threat management (UTM), and it was named a Leader in next-gen firewalls (NGFW).

KnowBe4 is on a rocket ride. A startup getting to Unicorn status (valued at a billion or more) on the back of security training is quite a feat. But constant breaches of organizations large and small, and a trail of victims to ransomware and phishing opened a massive opportunity. This company has risen from Niche Player a couple of years back to being number one in security training, according to Gartner.
