Forescout Earns Top Honors for Advancing OT and IoT Security
2025 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards recognize Forescout’s industry-leading approach to securing complex, heterogeneous environments
SAN JOSE, Calif., March 10, 2025 – Forescout Technologies, Inc., a global cybersecurity leader, today received recognition from the 2025 Cybersecurity Excellence Award for its Operational Technology (OT) Security and Internet of Things (IoT) Security solutions. This accolade highlights Forescout’s commitment to providing unparalleled visibility and control across OT and IoT environments to detect cyber threats before they lead to operational downtime or critical security incidents.
“The rapid expansion of connected, aging devices across IT, IoT, and OT environments creates unprecedented risk,” said Barry Mainz, CEO of Forescout. “We’re laser focused on tackling these challenges together with our customers to drive visibility, automation, resilience, and control. This award reinforces Forescout’s commitment to helping customers overcome the unique security challenges the industry faces to protect all assets and detect and respond to all threats.”
The Cybersecurity Excellence Awards honor companies, products, and professionals who demonstrate leadership, innovation, and excellence within information security. Evaluated by industry experts against peers based on size, geography, and market position, Forescout’s recognition reinforces its impact in securing cyber-physical systems (CPS) and critical infrastructure. Unlike solutions that solely focus on visibility, the Forescout Platform delivers enterprise-wide asset intelligence and control capabilities to automate orchestration, remediation, containment, segmentation, and to enforce security and compliance across managed, unmanaged, and unagentable devices. Additionally, Forescout Vedere Labs research is fed into the Forescout Platform and shared with the cybersecurity community, including CISA and other cybersecurity agencies, CERTs, ISACs, open-source projects, device manufacturers, universities and other researchers.
“We congratulate Forescout on its well-earned recognition in the OT and IoT Security categories of the 2025 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards,” said Holger Schulze, founder of Cybersecurity Insiders and organizer of the awards. “As we celebrate a decade of honoring excellence in cybersecurity, Forescout’s continued innovation, commitment, and leadership set a benchmark for the entire industry.”
