Award Nomination Packages


Late 2026 nominations are still open - The jury-based 2026 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards have been announced earlier this year, but late entries are still accepted and reviewed by the jury. Approved nominees also enter the Community Choice Awards, a separate public-voting track. Votes do not affect jury decisions.

Choose your package, then submit your nomination(s) - Packages offer better economics for multiple category entries and additional recognition visibility for nominees who want to promote their nomination to their audiences. Package selection does not affect judging or guarantee an award outcome. All eligible nominations are evaluated by our expert judging panel based on the same structured, merit-based criteria.

Two ways to activate your nomination:

Option 1: Submit first, pay later
Start your nomination, choose a category, complete the entry, and pay later at the final step.

Option 2: Pay now, submit later
Best if a colleague, agency, PR team, or procurement contact is paying on behalf of the nominee. Choose a package below, complete payment, then use your submission dashboard to add the nomination details.
