We did it.
Herd Security is proud to announce that we won Best of Show at FinovateSpring 2025 — one of the most competitive and respected stages in fintech.
Held in San Diego in May 2025, FinovateSpring brought together hundreds of financial technology companies from around the world, all competing to demo their innovations in front of a room packed with decision-makers from banks, credit unions, and financial services organizations. Out of all the companies on stage, only six walked away with Best of Show. We're honored to be one of them.
What Makes This Award Special
Here's what sets the Finovate Best of Show award apart from others in the industry: it's voted on entirely by the audience. No panel of judges. No internal committee. The financial institution leaders, investors, and fintech professionals sitting in the room — the very people who deal with fraud risk every day — cast their votes based on demo quality and real-world impact.
That makes this recognition meaningful in a way that goes beyond a trophy. It means the people who matter most saw what Herd Security is building and said: this is what the industry needs right now.
Why We Built Herd Security
Financial institutions are facing a threat landscape that has fundamentally shifted. The attacks are no longer just technical — they're human. Social engineering, voice fraud, and AI-powered insider threats are bypassing traditional security stacks because they exploit people, not systems.
Herd Security was built to close that gap. We give financial organizations the visibility and protection they need to de-risk human cyber attacks and AI insider threats — the kind of vulnerabilities that are increasingly difficult to detect and devastatingly easy to exploit.
Our FinovateSpring demo put that capability front and center, and the audience's response tells us the urgency is widely felt across the industry.
What's Next
Winning Best of Show doesn't change our mission — it validates it. We're doubling down on what got us here: building technology that makes financial institutions safer, smarter, and more resilient against the evolving human side of cyber risk.
We're grateful to the FinovateSpring 2025 audience for this recognition, to our team for the relentless work behind the scenes, and to the financial institutions who've trusted us to protect what matters most.
The momentum is real — and we're just getting started.
