This Marks the Seventh Consecutive Year of Rubrik being Named to List of World’s Top Private Cloud Companies
Rubrik, the Zero Trust Data Security™ Company, today announced that Forbes has recognized the company in the top 10 on the 2023 Forbes Cloud 100 List, the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world. This is Rubrik’s seventh consecutive year being named to the Forbes Cloud 100. The list is published by Forbes in partnership with Bessemer Venture Partners and Salesforce Ventures.
“The world’s data is under attack. Our customers trust Rubrik to not only secure their data, but to achieve business resiliency so that when the inevitable cyberattack happens, their operations can continue without interruption,” said Bipul Sinha, CEO and co-founder of Rubrik. “We believe this recognition underscores Rubrik’s mission to secure the world’s data and we are honored to be among the top 10 private companies in the world recognized on this prestigious list.”
For the eighth consecutive year, the Cloud 100 reviews submissions from hundreds of cloud startups and private companies each year. The Cloud 100 evaluation process involved ranking companies across four factors: market leadership (35%), estimated valuation (30%), operating metrics (20%), and people & culture (15%). For market leadership, the Cloud 100 enlists the help of a judging panel of public cloud company CEOs who assist in evaluating and ranking their private company peers.
“The companies of the Cloud 100 list represent the best and brightest private companies in this crucial tech sector,” said Kenrick Cai, the Forbes editor of the Cloud 100. “This year’s companies had to react rapidly to AI’s sweeping impact while contending with a market pullback. Their resilience puts them in elite company. Congratulations to each of the 2023 Cloud 100 honorees and the 20 Rising Stars who are showing early potential to one day join their ranks.”
This top 10 ranking comes on the heels of several notable Rubrik recognitions and milestones. Today, Rubrik announced that it acquired Laminar, a leading data security posture management (DSPM) platform, to create the industry’s first complete cyber resilience offering of its kind by bringing together cyber recovery and cyber posture across enterprise, cloud, and SaaS.
Over the past year, the company achieved $500 Million in Subscription Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) and now serves more than 5,000 customers globally. Rubrik strengthened its leadership team with the addition of two board appointments: former Microsoft Chairman John W. Thompson as Lead Independent Director, and former Palo Alto Networks CEO Mark McLaughlin as a board member.
The company continued to make waves by partnering with market-leading organizations to build advanced data security solutions, such as Rubrik Security Cloud’s generative AI integration with Microsoft Sentinel and Azure OpenAI, as well as Rubrik’s partnership with Zscaler to develop the industry’s first double extortion ransomware solution. Moreover, Rubrik formed its CISO Advisory Board chaired by Chris Krebs, launched its second Rubrik Zero Labs State of Data Security report, and unveiled an industry-first $10M Ransomware Recovery Warranty.
