Sponsored by Portal26, the Champion in Security Awards is held to honor cyber leaders who embody Respect, Inclusion, Collaboration, Community, Innovation and Education.

The Champion in Security Award for Inclusion honors the security leaders who organize their team to accommodate diversity, equality and inclusion principles to the fullest degree. These individuals actively solicit individuals from diverse as well as underrepresented groups and provide training to overcome barriers to equitable progress. These leaders recognize that as a community of practitioners, security has historically not been very diverse, and so they work hard to bring about significant change in how their teams are staffed and also to ensure that individuals from diverse backgrounds are welcomed, trained, and rewarded in a fair and equitable manner.

"We are proud of our Champions in Security Awards winners. These are leaders that are making a difference, not only in their technical practice but in the lives of their colleagues and industry as a whole," said Arti Raman, CEO and founder, Portal26. "This year's theme, 'The Art of the Possible,' reminds us that true security innovation requires technical prowess, creativity, collaboration, and intuition. Just as artists weave colors, shapes, and textures together to create masterpieces, cybersecurity professionals must leverage diverse perspectives, forge meaningful connections, and think outside the box to avoid emerging threats. Together, we are not just defending against cyber threats; we are crafting a future where security is not just a goal but a reality."
