Austin, TX – Aug. 30, 2024—Portnox, a leading provider of cloud-native, zero trust access control solutions, today announces that Portnox has been recognized as a 2024 SC Award finalist in the Trust Award category for Best Authentication Technology. The company entered its Conditional Access for Applications product, which launched in March. Conditional Access helps distributed, heavily SaaS-reliant organizations combat the rise in device-based attacks against enterprise applications through a risk-based approach that works lockstep with infrastructure and network security efforts.

This announcement was made on Thursday, August 29, 2024, as part of SC Media’s 2024 SC Awards coverage. The SC Awards recognize the solutions, organizations, and individuals that have demonstrated exceptional achievement in advancing the security of information security.

“The finalists for the 2024 SC Awards truly represent the forefront of cybersecurity innovation and leadership,” said Tom Spring, Editorial Director at SC Media. “These solutions, organizations, and professionals have demonstrated outstanding capabilities in addressing today’s complex and ever-changing threat landscape. We are proud to recognize their contributions to the cybersecurity community.”

This year, the SC Awards received a remarkable number of entries across 34 specialty categories. Entries were evaluated by a distinguished panel of judges, including cybersecurity professionals, industry leaders, and members of the CyberRisk Alliance community from sectors such as healthcare, financial services, education, and technology.

“Complete cybersecurity protection goes well beyond just controlling access; IT teams must meet ever-evolving security compliance requirements. That means they need to be able to monitor and mitigate the risk every connected endpoint poses — including managed devices, unmanaged BYOD, and insecure IoT,” said Denny LeCompte, Portnox CEO. “With Portnox, the endless list of enterprise applications no longer serves as a directory of easily targeted access attack vectors.”

Winners of the 2024 SC Awards will be announced on September 17, 2024.
