Put your cybersecurity innovation or project in the spotlight at the largest security event in the Benelux

What are the Cybersec Awards?
The Cybersec Awards specifically recognize cybersecurity excellence on a European scale. There are two categories:

– Best Cybersecurity Innovation Europe of the Year

For European solutions, products, technologies, or approaches that provide protection in an innovative way and/or strengthen organizational resilience. Think of new tools, platforms, methodologies, or creative approaches to known threats.

– Best Cybersecurity Project & Program Europe of the Year

For projects or programs recently implemented at a European level in the field of cybersecurity — from implementations and awareness campaigns to large-scale transformation initiatives.

Present your security innovation or project
What makes the Cybersec Awards unique: nominees get the opportunity to briefly present their project or innovation to the audience and the expert jury during Cybersec Europe itself.

This will take place on 20 May from 16:45 on the main stage of Cybersec Europe. The awards ceremony will follow the next day: Thursday 21 May from 12:15, also on the main stage of Cybersec Europe.

Who can apply?
Anyone — companies, governments, non-profits, start-ups, and teams — active in cybersecurity in Europe can submit an entry. The barrier to entry is low, while the potential impact is high. Submissions will also receive editorial exposure.

Summary
– The deadline for the Cybersec Europe Awards is 29 April 2026. These awards will be decided at Cybersec Europe based on your submitted nomination, followed by a short presentation to an expert jury on 20 May from 16:45.
