Award categoryCybersecurity Product / Service
This Cybersecurity Excellence Awards category covers products that run compliance programs. New nominations in this area are entered in Compliance Automation or Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC).
The Compliance Program Management category covers products that help organizations run the compliance work required by laws, regulations and industry rules: mapping requirements to controls, tracking evidence, and reporting to auditors and regulators. This includes compliance built for regulated sectors such as power utilities.
Past recipients are listed by year on the Winners page.
Products that automate evidence and audit readiness are entered in Compliance Automation, and platforms that manage risk and compliance across the organization fit Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC). Compliance for industrial and utility operators can also enter Critical Infrastructure Security.
The categories below cover this area. Each is judged separately, so a nominee can enter every one that fits, with a separate nomination for each.
Nominations in the categories above are scored by an independent jury of security practitioners, analysts and CISOs on leadership, innovation and impact. Each competes against organizations of similar size and region. Entry packages, sponsorship and public votes do not affect the jury's scores.
The jury awards Gold, Silver or Bronze, or a Finalist badge, and results are published on this site and announced to the 600,000+ member Cybersecurity Insiders community. Every approved nomination also enters the separate Community Choice award, decided by public votes.
New nominations in this area are entered in Compliance Automation or Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC). Anyone can submit a nomination, including the nominee or an agency acting for a client, and the nomination form has a confidential field for detail that is shared with the judges and not published. Deadlines, pricing and entry steps are on the How it Works page.
