Ilya Sachkov, Group-IB CEO, named to Forbes "30 Under 30" list

Ilya Sachkov, Group-IB CEO, has been ranked among the brightest young entrepreneurs under 30 according to Forbes magazine for 2016.

Annually a panel of independent judges, including past Under30 winners, renowned experts and investors, selects leaders across 20 industries ranging from energy and healthcare to music and sport.

Forbes picks founders and top managers of companies, whose innovative solutions set new enterprise standards and move markets forward. Five years ago Mark Zuckerberg ranked first in the Enterprise Tech category.

It is no coincidence that this year “Zuckerberg’s list” includes many more businessmen involved in areas related to big data, artificial intelligence, and cyber security: in a 5-7-year perspective the revenue of Forbes main lists of participants will directly depend on the quality of solutions in these areas.

The “30 under 30” nomination is a serious credit of trust from the global business community, which relies upon our technology. Thanks to the Group-IB team, I am sure that we will justify it. Cyber threats have been increasingly recognized as a real problem with a passive approach giving place to proactive solutions worldwide and in Russia as well. This trend will make the Internet more secure for everyone. I am grateful to our clients and partners who continue to trust us to protect their online interests.
