SAN FRANCISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, September 29, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — CyberRisk Alliance and SC Media today announced that nominations for the 2027 SC Awards will open on October 6, 2026, launching the 30th annual program honoring cybersecurity’s leading solutions, organizations, and leaders.
For three decades, the SC Awards have recognized the work helping security teams reduce risk, strengthen resilience, protect organizations, and respond to a changing threat landscape. The 2027 program will continue that legacy with categories spanning cloud security, identity, data protection, threat detection, response, exposure management, risk, compliance, leadership, and more.
“For 30 years, the SC Awards have recognized meaningful progress across cybersecurity,” said Kelley Damore, Chief Content Officer, CyberRisk Alliance. “The 2027 program continues that work by honoring the teams, companies, and leaders delivering measurable outcomes in a field where trust, execution, and evidence matter.”
The SC Awards are designed to highlight cybersecurity achievement across both technology and leadership categories. Nominations are open to organizations and individuals whose products, programs, services, or leadership have helped advance the practice of information security.
Entries will be reviewed through a practitioner-led judging process focused on real-world impact. Judges will evaluate nominations based on the clarity of the problem addressed, the strength of the approach, evidence of effectiveness, repeatability, scalability, and business impact.
“The strongest SC Awards entries show more than innovation,” Damore added. “They show what changed for customers, security teams, users, and organizations because of the work being recognized.”
Finalists and winners will be featured across SC Media editorial coverage and CyberRisk Alliance channels, giving honorees visibility with cybersecurity practitioners, executives, buyers, and industry stakeholders. Additional program details, including categories, deadlines, judging information, and entry guidance, will be available when nominations open.
