Cybersecurity Excellence Awards 2026: Gold entries span agentic AI and web security

Recorded results

The categories distinguish Adversarial Exposure Validation, Agentic AI Security, Agentic AI Governance and Web Application Security. Those labels help readers locate the recognition within a product’s stated security area. They also prevent four different category outcomes from being compressed into one generic comparison of cybersecurity vendors. 1 2

Reading the recognition

Gold is the result level retained for all four records. Recognition at that level does not itself document a penetration-test outcome, a deployment configuration or a measurable reduction in incidents. Those claims would need separate evidence, particularly for teams deciding how a product fits their security environment.

Programme and coverage

The programme is organized by Cybersecurity Insiders with Global scope in the directory. The table presents the selected 2026 records and a source for each result. The related award and company pages provide further recorded context without expanding the claim beyond the published category recognition. 1

Coverage is limited to the results cited in this article. The result table retains the published level, category and product wording, with a numbered source for each entry. Follow the related programme and company pages for the directory’s wider recorded coverage.
