The Official Annual Cybersecurity 500 list for 2018 was announced at the Cyber Investing Summit in New York City on May 15th.
To answer the most frequently asked questions about our popular list of the world’s hottest and most innovative cybersecurity companies, we’ll be publishing a series of articles throughout the rest of the year.
“Who’s where?” is the top FAQ.
To begin with, the Cybersecurity 500 is hardly a U.S. list. In 2018, there are 142 non-U.S. companies. 67 of the companies are from Europe, and 19 of them are from Asia-Pac.

Drilling down into smaller regions and U.S. metro areas, we take a composite view of where the Cybersecurity 500 companies are located:
- Silicon Valley claims the top spot with 126 companies, 31 one of them in San Francisco – making it the top city on the list. Mountain View, next after SF in the Bay Area, boasts 18 companies.
- Northeast U.S., taken as a whole combining New England, NY, and NJ, has a total of 72 companies. New England itself tallies 31 companies on the list, with 10 of them in Boston.
