CSO Awards 2025 showcase world-class security strategies

For more than a decade, the CSO awards have recognized security programs with outstanding thought leadership and business value. This award is a recognized mark of excellence in cybersecurity.
“The scope and complexity of cybersecurity responsibilities are rapidly expanding, especially in the face of AI-driven threats,” said Beth Kormanik, content director for CSO Conference & Awards. “This year’s CSO Award winners embody how today’s security leaders address these challenges head-on. From deploying machine learning to detecting complex attacker behaviors to implementing password-free authentication between large organizations, these initiatives reflect the value of bold, forward-looking security strategies.”
Winners will receive face-to-face recognition at the CSO Conference Awards Awards held at the Grand Hyatt Indian Wells Resort & Villas in Wells, India, California, from October 20-22, 2025. During the event, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with their peers to learn more about award-winning projects and sharing valuable insights.
