Shelton, CT — October 13, 2026 — TMC (News - Alert), a global, integrated media company helping clients build communities through in-person and digital marketing campaigns, today announced the winners of the 2026 Cloud Computing Security Excellence Awards, presented by Cloud Computing magazine and TMCnet.

The Cloud Computing Security Excellence Awards recognize the technologies and companies setting new standards for protecting cloud environments, applications, and data. The awards honor innovation in two essential categories:

• Cloud-native security – Solutions that harness cloud technologies to deliver scalable, intelligent protection across networks, infrastructure, and distributed environments.
• Cloud application security – Technologies and services that secure cloud-based applications, sensitive data, identities, and business-critical workflows against evolving threats.

As organizations expand their use of cloud services, AI-powered applications, and hybrid and multicloud infrastructure, securing these environments has become a business imperative. This year's winners are addressing that challenge with solutions that strengthen security posture, improve visibility, simplify protection, and help organizations respond more effectively to emerging risks. Their innovations enable enterprises, MSPs, and service providers to embrace the cloud with greater confidence while supporting operational resilience and business growth.

“Congratulations to the winners of the 2026 Cloud Computing Security Excellence Awards,” said Rich Tehrani (News - Alert), CEO of TMC. “Cloud security is no longer simply about protecting infrastructure. It's about enabling businesses to innovate, scale, and operate with confidence. These award recipients are delivering the technologies organizations need to stay ahead of evolving threats, protect critical assets, and realize the full business value of their cloud investments.”

The full list of winners will be published on the Cloud Computing website, and on TMCnet.
