NOMINATION HIGHLIGHTS

Twine is redefining what it means to be a cybersecurity company in the age of Agentic AI.

Security teams face a structural execution gap: they know what needs to be done – reduce identity risk, close compliance gaps, remediate misconfigurations, improve governance – but lack the time and staffing to execute consistently across complex, fragmented environments. Twine was founded to solve this systemic challenge by introducing a new category: AI Digital Employees powered by an Agentic AI platform.

Unlike traditional security vendors that focus on detection, alerting, or incremental automation, Twine delivers autonomous, goal-driven execution. Our multi-agent architecture enables AI Digital Employees to investigate context, interpret policy, coordinate across enterprise systems, engage stakeholders, and execute cybersecurity objectives from A to Z, with human-in-the-loop controls, separation of duties, and full auditability built in from day one.

Our first AI Digital Employee, Alex, focuses on Identity & Access Management (IAM), one of the most critical and operationally overloaded domains in cybersecurity. Alex helps organizations proactively improve identity hygiene, remediate risk, accelerate governance initiatives, and strengthen compliance posture. IAM is only the beginning. Twine’s broader vision is to build the AI cybersecurity workforce of tomorrow, expanding into additional domains and fundamentally transforming how security work gets done.

Twine has been named a Gartner Cool Vendor™ in Identity-First Security and referenced in 5 Gartner analyst reports and 1 by Forrester, reflecting recognition of its differentiated, execution-focused approach. The company has also earned major industry honors including as an RSAC 2025 Innovation Sandbox Finalist, a Black Hat Startup Spotlight Final Four Finalist, a Forbes Cloud100 Rising Star, and an Inc. Magazine Best in Business winner, and a KuppingerCole Rising Star in IAM, alongside wins at the AWS Summit Startup Competition and inclusion in the AWS re:Inforce keynote.

Twine is not simply building another security tool. We are building the next operating layer for cybersecurity, where trusted AI Digital Employees enable organizations to execute continuously, intelligently, and at scale.
