The Cyber OSPAs The Cyber Outstanding Security Performance Awards

Recognise and reward outstanding performance in the cyber security sector

The 2026 Cyber OSPAs winners will be announced at a gala dinner, to take place on the 29th April 2026 at the Birmingham Metropole, co-located with The Safety and Security Series. The 2026 awards will be hosted alongside our Workplace Violence Reduction Awards (WVRAs) and Fire Resilience Excellence Awards (FREAs).

About the Awards:

A warm welcome to the Cyber Outstanding Security Performance Awards (Cyber OSPAs). These awards are different. The overall aim is to recognise and highlight outstanding performance by companies, people, products and initiatives across the cyber security sector globally. However, there is an important additional feature of the Cyber OSPAs in that they have been designed to be ethical, and based on values of being independent, credible, transparent and respectable. For example, the organisers do not appoint the judges, they are nominated by our supporting associations; all the judges agree to mark to an ethics policy; the judges mark independently against published criteria; and we have an ethical sponsorship policy. The Cyber OSPAs are based on equivalent awards; the Outstanding Security Performance Awards, for the physical and corporate security sector, and the Tackling Economic Crime Awards, both of which are renowned in their fields.
