44 Top Cybersecurity Companies to Know 2026 - Built In

Image: Shutterstock UPDATED BY Abel Rodriguez | Dec 17, 2025 REVIEWED BY Ellen Glover | Sep 22, 2025 Summary: Cybercrime costs are projected to reach $10.5 trillion in 2024. Cybersecurity companies are using advanced technology like AI and machine learning to combat threats, with many specializing in network, cloud and access security to protect businesses. The damage inflicted by cybercrime is expected to produce $10.5  trillion in global costs in 2024, with the average breach costing individuals companies $4.88 million. But projections estimate that cybercrime may cost $23 trillion worth of damage by 2027,  making cybersecurity companies essential in protecting various organizations.   As collectors and storers of data on a grand scale, businesses are especially ripe for targeting. IBM president and CEO Ginni Rometty thought so, too. “Cybercrime,” she said, “is the greatest threat to every company in the world.” Adding to the complexity is artificial intelligence, which has become increasingly common in attacks. In fact, according to Capital Technology University, around 40 percent of all cyberattacks now leverage AI in a number of ways. Some of the most common include developing believable malware, generating spoof messages and automating password exploitation. Luckily, many cybersecurity companies are leveraging the same technology to provide better and faster security for organizations.
