The Company also has a solid presence in other security-aware markets such as healthcare and insurance. The Company has revenues in excess of $50 million and specialise­s in teaming with organisati­ons where the cost of compliance to their individual industries’ best practices outweighs their ability to deliver without a focused cyber security and compliance specialist like SilverSky.
