CISOs Connect Opens Nominations for 2027 C100 Awards
CISOs Connect has launched its nomination process for 100 security leaders. The awards recognize professionals navigating the complexities of AI, quantum computing, and global digital threats.
Industry network CISOs Connect has officially opened nominations for its 2027 C100 Awards. The program seeks to identify 100 information security leaders who have demonstrated exceptional performance while navigating significant technological shifts and an evolving global risk landscape.
The selection process relies on peer-based judgment, distinguishing it from awards based on corporate marketing or commercial sponsorship. Candidates are evaluated based on their ability to address critical modern challenges, including the integration of generative AI, the long-term implications of quantum computing, and the volatility of global cyber infrastructure.
The initiative serves to highlight the shifting responsibilities of the CISO role, which has transitioned from purely operational oversight to a strategic executive function. The final cohort of honorees will be determined following the completion of the formal peer review period.
