SFET Sees 50% Increase in Subscription Revenue Quarter-Over-Quarter as Adoption of its Consumer Privacy Product Accelerates

HERZLIYA, Israel, Jan. 10, 2022, Safe-T(R) Group Ltd. (NASDAQ, TASE: SFET) a global provider of cybersecurity and privacy solutions to consumers and enterprises, today announced that it has reached a monthly recurring revenue (MRR) milestone for its recently introduced privacy solution for Apple mobile devices via the App Store, which is now serving more than 10,000 subscribers worldwide.

2021 witnessed growing demand from consumers looking for effective solutions to keep their identities private, strengthening their online safety and anonymity. Seeking to provide consumers with an alternative to existing, often slow and unreliable VPN technology, the Company’s new privacy solution was launched in early 2021 through a phased product introduction program. Since its launch, the consumer privacy product has recorded significant subscriber revenue growth, averaging over 50%, quarter-over-quarter. The Company ended 2021 with more than 10,000 paid subscribers, with significant presence in the United States. Recently, the Company has seen strong interest in its solution from users in countries that are invoking more restrictive policies for online activity. To capitalize on the growing interest for enhanced consumer privacy, the Company intends to ramp-up global marketing of the product through the first half of 2022 and launching its availability on Android mobile devices and personal computers.

“It is clear that consumers around the world are increasingly seeking solutions to keep their data and online activities private as the need for privacy is no longer only a priority for large organizations, governments and public institutions. VPN solutions have become a mainstream tool, now helping millions of users around the world protect their privacy, and that adoption is accelerating. That is why Safe-T is committed to advancing its privacy offerings with features and capabilities that we believe will further differentiate us in the market,” said Eitan Bremler, VP of Product strategy at Safe-T.

Shachar Daniel, Chief Executive Officer of Safe-T, added, “Since we acquired our consumer products business this past summer, our team has been successful in introducing a number of exciting new products and capabilities, and we are very pleased with their early performance. The growth in our consumer business is a significant factor behind our expected record 2021 financial performance announced last week, driving our full-year revenue above $10 million, a year-over-year growth of more than 100%. We are confident in the potential of our consumer business and look forward to realizing the untapped value we see as millions of consumers seek new cybersecurity and privacy solutions.”

– SFET is Listed in Gartner “Market Guide for User Authentication” Report

On December 21st SFET announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Safe-T Data A.R Ltd., has been recognized as a Representative Vendor in Gartner’s December 2021 report titled, “Market Guide for User Authentication”1.

The report finds that, “Access management (AM) vendors are the preferred authentication providers in cloud-first organizations. Those AM vendors able to meet legacy needs may displace incumbent authentication-specific vendors, but authentication specialists may succeed where they can provide added value.” In addition, the report highlights that, “user authentication is foundational to other identity and access management (IAM) functions that rely on having confidence in a person’s identity (authorization, audit and identity analytics). It is also a cornerstone of identity-first security and zero-trust initiatives.”

According to Gartner, “There is a small but important role for specialist vendors that can provide organizations that have particularly complex legacy application infrastructures with a cohesive user authentication framework. These vendors might have their own user authentication capability or integrate with AM or third-party user authentication tools.”

Safe-T ZoneZero(R) from SFET is the first Identity-Based Zero Trust Orchestration solution, it provides centralized Identity-based Zero Trust Security and Multi-Factor Authentication, for all users. The SFET ZoneZero(R) enables organizations to implement identity-based security and add per-application secondary multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all types of users – network users, VPN users, remote access (ZTNA, SDP, PAM) users, etc. MFA can be added to any type of application (legacy applications, proprietary services, RDP, file shares, SSH, SFTP, web applications, databases, etc.) without the need to redesign the network, applications, or remote access solutions.

– Executives Complete Open Market Purchases of SFET Shares; Increase Ownership to Approximately 13.5%

In aggregate, SFET executives have purchased over 180,000 shares during the trading window, between December 7 and December 13, 2021.

“Safe-T Group continues to drive record growth as it successfully executes its business plan addressing the tremendous global opportunities of cybersecurity and privacy. The strong performance, combined with our expectations for continued growth, provide us with confidence in the significant inherent value in our shares and that is why we have increased our stakes in the Company,” said Chen Katz, Chairman of the Board.“ Safe-T has accomplished many milestones over the past two years as we build the Company into a global leader in the cybersecurity and privacy market, and we are confident that we have the right team, technology, and capabilities to achieve our long-term goals and create shareholder value.”

Unlike traditional VPN solutions, Safe-T’s ZTNA offers truly secure, transparent and cost-effective access to internal applications and data for all users.

After successfully demonstrating superior product performance and capabilities in a series of competitive evaluation programs, The SFET ZTNA solution was selected by new customers, including:

– Ramco Cements – With sales and integration support provided by iValue InfoSolutions Pvt Ltd. (“iValue”), SFET long-standing channel partner in India, Ramco, one of the leading cement manufacturers in India, deployed SFET ZoneZero(R) to secure access for its remote users to corporate applications such as file servers, CRM and databases. ZoneZero(R) was selected over a competing solution developed by an India-based infrastructure security company.

– Panacea Biotec – ZoneZero(R) from SFET was deployed at Panacea Biotec, a biotechnology company, specializing in research and development, manufacturing, sales, distribution and marketing of pharmaceuticals, vaccines and biosimilars, to secure access for its remote users to the corporate ERP application. Safe-T, in collaboration with iValue, secured this contract following a competitive performance analysis versus several vendors, including a leading ZTNA solution provider.

– A Regional Healthcare Facility Operator – Working with Innexgen International Holdings (Pvt) Ltd., the SFET channel partner in Sri Lanka, ZoneZero(R) was deployed by a growing regional private healthcare provider with presence in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. The solution was deployed in several hospitals, supporting a large number of medical staff connecting to over 50 hospital applications. ZoneZero(R), in conjunction with a biometric multi-factor authentication (MFA) solution, was selected to assure the highest levels of secure remote access for the hospital’s employees.

Mr. Bremler concluded: “The interest in ZTNA has grown significantly in the past two years, primarily due to the surge in remote work in response to COVID-19. Work-from-Home and significant increases in the need for remote access have forced organizations to quickly realize the scaling and security limitations of conventional VPN solutions. With the “never trust, always verify” philosophy, and although it’s in early stages of adoption, ZTNA and access management are positioned as a preferred solution for remote access, providing a safe and straightforward approach to the enterprise. With our ZoneZero(R) suite, we believe that we have the right solution to provide organizations exactly what they need to adapt quickly and securely to the change in work environment and needs.”
