ZeroTier Named Cyber Security Solution of the Year 2026 by The Cyber Security Review

On the heels of its ZeroTier Quantum announcement, the company has received this latest recognition for its secure, identity-based networking platform built for modern enterprise, edge, and mission-critical environments.

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ZeroTier, one of the world’s top software-defined networking companies, announced today it has been named “Cyber Security Solution of the Year 2026” by The Cyber Security Review magazine. The award recognizes ZeroTier’s leadership in delivering a secure, software-defined networking platform that meets the demands of modern enterprises. As organizations continue to scale across cloud, edge, and hybrid environments, including an explosion of AI agents, ZeroTier provides a simple, identity-based way to connect users, workloads, and devices, without the complexity of legacy networking.

ZeroTier replaces rigid infrastructure with direct, encrypted connectivity. It enables enterprises to build flat networks across clouds, data centers, and edge environments with defense-grade security. Its peer-to-peer architecture and end-to-end encryption aligns to any network topology to create resilient connectivity from enterprise IT to regulated industries to defense and mission-critical systems.

“Networking is still too complex, too exposed, and too expensive,” said Andrew Gault, CEO of ZeroTier. “We’re changing that. This recognition reinforces our mission to give organizations a simpler, more secure way to connect everything.”

In a special award feature, The Cyber Security Review highlighted ZeroTier’s forward-looking, innovative approach to connectivity and security, especially as enterprises prepare for AI-driven traffic growth, distributed systems, and emerging quantum threats.

To combat these threats, ZeroTier recently rolled out ZeroTier Quantum, the first software-defined, end-to-end quantum-secure networking platform in the world. Designed for on-wire, data center level performance, ZeroTier’s quantum cryptographic construction meets NIST and NSA’s highest standards at CNSA 2.0 — exceeding PQC hurdles targeted by governments and regulated industries from 2026 onward.

“With AI changing the landscape of cyberattacks and the quantum threat just around the corner, ZeroTier is leading the way with resilient, decentralized, identity-first networking that limits access by design,” Gault said. “This recognition by The Cyber Security Review is a testament to the hard work and relentless innovation of our team, who are committed to solving difficult connectivity challenges while securing organizations globally.”
