2018 Ribbon Cutting for root9b

History of R9B

Founded in 2011, R9B began operations as a cybersecurity training company with a vision of delivering military-grade technology to the private sector. This in response to the increasingly blurred lines between government and civilian targets. We quickly turned vision into reality with the development of advanced cybersecurity software and services designed to protect global networks from sophisticated threats. In 2013, we introduced the concept of threat HUNTing (HUNT) to commercial markets. Since then, our flagship platform, ORION, has deployed to hunt threats on government and private networks around the world. We strengthen HUNT with expertise in full-cycle Threat Intelligence, Managed Security Services, Managed Detection and Response, and Digital Forensics and Incident Response. We maintain dedicated security operations centers in Colorado Springs and San Antonio where we actively monitor and patrol global networks 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. R9B is headquartered in scenic Colorado Springs, Colorado.

What does root9B mean?

Root refers to having complete system control. Cyber adversaries regularly attempt to gain root access. R9B aims to prevent that. The number 9, combined with the hexadecimal-to-decimal conversion of the letter B, forms 911, a reference to the infamous date in American history. Together, R9B underscores the power and potential danger of cyberattacks and the critical importance of cybersecurity in today’s interconnected world.
