We are pleased to announce that RateYourCyber has been named a finalist for Security Innovation of the Year at the Computing Security Excellence Awards 2026.
The Computing Security Excellence Awards celebrate their 10th anniversary this year, recognising outstanding achievement across the cybersecurity industry. Being shortlisted in the innovation category alongside established security vendors is a significant milestone for our company.
What This Recognition Means
The Security Innovation of the Year category highlights organisations driving meaningful change in how security is delivered, managed, or consumed. The shortlist includes companies tackling different aspects of the security challenge, from offensive security services to enterprise GRC platforms.
For RateYourCyber, this nomination validates the approach we have taken from day one: delivering complete cybersecurity visibility through assessment, verification, and threat intelligence in one platform.
Our Approach to Security Innovation
Traditional GRC tools ask organisations to self-report their security posture. We go further.
RateYourCyber combines comprehensive assessments across multiple security domains with technical verification through Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace integrations, plus continuous threat monitoring including vulnerability scanning and dark web surveillance.
The result is a platform that serves both SMEs who previously could not access enterprise-grade capabilities, and enterprises seeking alternatives to fragmented, consultant-heavy GRC processes.
The Shortlist
We are honoured to be shortlisted alongside:
- Blackwired
- Closed Door Security
- Cyber Attack Service, CovertSwarm
- Cytix
- Decision Hub Rebuild Project - MarTech Team, Aviva
- DefendDomain
- FireBreak, Goldilock Secure
- Quod Orbis
- ScanApp, Border Force and Zaizi
The full shortlist is available at event.computing.co.uk.
Thank You
This recognition would not be possible without our customers who trusted us with their security programmes, our partners who helped extend our reach, and our team who built the platform.
Winners will be announced at the awards ceremony on 26th March 2026.
