AI Innovator, Cyber Security. For the second year running.
CyberHeed has been named a Finalist in the Australian AI Awards 2026, in the AI Innovator (Cyber Security) category. It's the second year in a row we've been recognised here. In 2025 we were named a finalist in the same category, and being back in 2026 says the approach is holding up.
Why back-to-back matters
One nomination can be a good year. Two in the same category, judged against the AI cybersecurity field both times, says the idea underneath the product is sound. Earlier this year the recognition came from the cyber community directly, as a finalist for GRC Provider of the Year at the Australian Cyber Awards 2026. This one comes from the AI field. Two different rooms, same read.
What's actually being recognised
The compliance brain. It's a persistent understanding of how an organisation actually operates, and it's what separates reading a framework from understanding a business. The brain is applied to every piece of evidence, every control, across every framework at once. See how the platform works.
This year we gave it a live feed. Live Integrations connects the systems you already run, identity, endpoint, and development tooling, and feeds what it finds straight into the brain alongside your policies and documents. Your documents establish intent. The connectors confirm what's actually happening. The brain decides whether the two still line up. That's continuous assurance, not periodic scrambles.
What hasn't changed
The team. The mission. The approach. AI that reads and reasons through evidence, done properly, no shortcuts.
Same mission. GRC, but smart.
What's ahead
More frameworks, more connectors, and a few things we're not ready to talk about yet. We look forward to the gala.
