Deep Instinct was selected for its potential to significantly impact business and society through new technologies, and advance the Fourth Industrial Revolution
, the first company to apply deep learning to cybersecurity, was selected among hundreds of candidates as one of the World Economic Forum's "technology pioneers", a selection of the world's most innovative companies.
