Utimaco Applauded by Frost & Sullivan for Improving Public-Key Encryption and Data Security and for Its Competitive Strategies
Utimaco offers comprehensive and industry-specific expertise by working on complex design and implementation projects with diverse organizations that have distinct security needs and requirements
SAN ANTONIO, Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Frost & Sullivan recently assessed the post-quantum cryptography (PQC) industry and, based on its findings, recognized Utimaco with the 2024 Global Competitive Strategy Leadership Award. The company is a leading global provider of on-premises and cloud-based payment and general-purpose hardware security modules (HSMs), which act as the central Root of Trust for any digital environment. Utimaco supplies the Root of Trust for a variety of industries and use cases, ranging from autonomous cars to hospitals and national critical infrastructure.
By cross-cutting verticals, the company provides specialized offerings to manufacturers, governments, mobile network operators, banks, airports, and utilities, among others. Utimaco’s portfolio is widely integrated in the market for its multiple layers of digital trust and cybersecurity and includes solutions for:
- Data protection
- Key management
- Secure payments
- Telecommunication
- Public warnings
Utimaco complemented its organic growth and offerings through a series of strategic acquisitions across the security ecosystem. It acquired Atalla Product Line from Micro Focus to expand into the U.S. market and added payment HSM and enterprise key management to its existing general purpose portfolio. The company substantially expanded its portfolio for the payments and financial industries by acquiring solutions provider GEOBRIDGE for key management and MYHSM for an as-a-service offering known as Trust as a Service Marketplace. It also acquired exceet Secure Solutions (ESS) and REALSEC, further increasing its IT and IoT security footprint in Europe. With its acquisition of Celltick, a global leader in public warning and mass notification systems and the world’s largest cell broadcast center provider, Utimaco expanded its comprehensive offering to government, telecommunications, and enterprise customers. Finally, after acquiring conpal, it fully integrated its file and folder encryption solutions to complete its data protection portfolio.
Ozgun Pelit, senior industry analyst at Frost & Sullivan, said: “Utimaco’s expertise in deploying HSMs both for general purpose and specialized use cases translates well to the post-quantum era, which requires high levels of customization and adaptability. Utimaco also strategically positions itself as a wide-ranging partner for organizations in this monumental task, providing consultancy services, quantum-readiness assessments, and crypto-agility solutions—an integral part of migration to PQC as a leading HSM supplier.”
Utimaco also actively participated in PQC standardization efforts and interoperability processes, including collaborative research projects and thought leadership. It is closely engaged in the broader ecosystem of quantum security, working on proofs of concept and active standardization in quantum key distribution and quantum random number generation. Placing a strategic focus on PQC to prepare the security infrastructure for the quantum era, Utimaco has been the first mover in developing PQC-ready HSMs. It developed the Quantum Protect application as an extension for its General Purpose HSMs to enable the implementation of new and quantum-resistant algorithms through a technology partnership with ISARA, a leading provider of quantum-safe security solutions. This paved the way for large organizations to test and integrate quantum-safe algorithms into their operations very early on and before the release of official standards. Testing its functional compliance with the NIST algorithms on a regular basis, Utimaco strives to be feature-complete and supports individual algorithms selected by European and international security agencies.
“The transition from legacy algorithms to PQC and overcoming interoperability and performance challenges involves industry-specific requirements and adaptability. Utimaco’s strategic positioning and expertise in a wide range of industries and applications put the company at a great advantage in migration to PQC,” added Ozgun. With its strong overall performance, Utimaco earns Frost & Sullivan’s 2024 Global Competitive Strategy Leadership Award in the Post-Quantum Cryptography industry.
Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents this award to the company that has leveraged competitive intelligence to successfully execute a strategy that results in stronger market share, competitive brand positioning, and customer satisfaction.
Frost & Sullivan Best Practices awards recognize companies in various regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in leadership, technological innovation, customer service, and strategic product development. Industry analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analyses, and extensive secondary research to identify best practices in the industry.

DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is excited to announce it’s among the first to be granted consent to a full authorization by the Astana Financial Service Authority (AFSA). This milestone brings Bybit closer to becoming a fully regulated Digital Asset Trading Facility (DATF).
As part of a rigorous process, Bybit Kazakhstan has passed a full AML check, business conduct audit, and detailed compliance inspections. This is part of Bybit’s focus on securing new user opportunities in Kazakhstan and the broader Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) region.
“Kazakhstan has become a key player in the global crypto ecosystem, and we are thrilled to be expanding our services in such a dynamic market,” said Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit. “We are committed to bringing our cutting-edge technology, security, and transparency to crypto traders in Kazakhstan, ensuring they can access the best possible tools and services to thrive in this fast-growing industry.”
Once the full license is in place, Bybit Kazakhstan will offer various digital assets related products and services. The expansion into Kazakhstan aligns with Bybit’s mission to provide reliable and transparent services, catering to the unique needs of crypto traders and investors in the region.
This development follows Bybit’s receipt of its initial operating and custody licenses from AFSA in June 2023, reinforcing its commitment to local regulatory requirements. Bybit’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its presence in Kazakhstan underscore its belief in responsible growth and ensuring a compliant and secure trading environment.
Kazakhstan has quickly emerged as a hub for crypto innovation, and Bybit is proud to play a leading role in fostering this development. For example, Bybit hosted a “Foundations of Blockchain, Web3 and Crypto Exchange Activities” course for Banks of Kazakhstan in 2024. This event was part of Bybit’s drive to make blockchain education more accessible in the CIS region.
By securing this full authorization, Bybit is poised to enhance crypto adoption, provide institutional-grade security, and offer advanced trading features to its growing regional user base.

Integrum ESG and CSRHub enable fund managers to monitor both long-term trends and short-term movements in ESG ratings for companies, across a 10-year time series
LONDON, Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Integrum ESG, the leading alternative ESG data provider, has today announced the launch of their Consensus ESG Ratings module.
Just as investors monitor movements in consensus earnings estimates or credit ratings, investors now are aware of the demand for the ability to monitor long-term trends and short-term movements in consensus ESG ratings.
This new feature enables Integrum ESG’s asset manager clients to now see the consensus ESG score for any company, either as an absolute rating or a relative percentile ranking, across a 10-year time series.
These scores will indicate to any investor what the capital markets have ‘priced in’ for a company’s ESG performance, allowing users to quickly understand the market’s view on a company and easily conduct relative ESG analysis on the positions they hold within their Portfolio.
This regularly updated data is provided by CSRHub, the world’s leading provider of consensus ESG ratings. CSRHub has spent years aggregating and normalising a vast range of licensed sources – from large ESG ratings firms such as MSCI, ISS, S&P Global, and Sustainalytics to specialists such as CDP and Better World Companies.
Shai Hill, Founder and CEO of Integrum ESG, commented: “Many investors have told us they want a sense of ‘what is priced in’ in terms of a company’s ESG performance, so they can compare this to what anyone ESG ratings firm is saying. CSRHub is the only firm to have credibly achieved this, thanks to a model refined over years and a vast data lake – so we are delighted to be partnering with them.”
Bahar Gidwani, Co-Founder of CSRHub, added: “Investors need to fine tune their ESG-related investment strategies to improve their returns and better match the preferences of their clients. Combining CSRHub’s expert outside-in, consensus view of ESG with Integrum ESG’s detailed real-time data stream provides a strong solution for these needs.”
About Integrum ESG
Integrum ESG is the leading alternative ESG data and ratings platform for investors, blending human analysis and award-winning artificial intelligence models to capture, verify and display granular and relevant ESG data for analysis and assessment. Their Platform allows clients to dissect ESG scores, real-time sentiment, and more with a variety of unique-to-market features, empowering industry professionals and investors and giving them complete oversight of ESG risk across their portfolio.
