Industry Mainstay

SAFE Security is a verified, high-value Series C cybersecurity company (approx. $170M funding, Fortune 500 clients) addressing critical cyber risk quantification needs. While the project itself has exceptional utility, traction, and market timing, this specific submission is of very low quality (lazy descriptions, false 'everyone' reach claims, missing financial data). The score reflects the project's strong reality—significantly outperforming the calibration baseline of HackerNoon—but is penalized for the poor quality of evidence provided in the application.
