Finn Partners has been named communications agency of record for BlackRidge Technology, which was founded in 2010 to commercialize patented network security technologies originally developed to cloak battlefield assets for the Department of Defense. The agency will work to elevate BlackRidge’s profile among IT security decision-makers in the government, critical infrastructure and industrial IoT (energy, utilities), health care and finance and insurance sectors. FINN's communications program will highlight how issues with cybersecurity begin at the point of connection to the Internet itself. To block cyber attacks, BlackRidge's technology authenticates the identity of every user and device at the moment of the first request to connect. FINN’s work for BlackRidge is being directed out of the agency’s Portland, San Francisco and New York offices, led by Wendy Lane Stevens, managing partner, and Lisa Heathman, partner, at LANE, a Finn Partners Company.
