Global Awards badge

For a third year in a row, Cyber Defense Magazine selected MITRE for three Global InfoSec Awards. The judges annually select winners who understand tomorrow’s threats, provide a cost-effective solution, and innovate in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk to get ahead of the next possible breach.

MITRE’s Security Automation Framework© (SAF) received the Publisher’s Choice honor for the security automation category. Adopted by multiple corporations and government agencies across the defense and intelligence communities, SAF demystifies the complex cybersecurity compliance process, distilling it into open-source, streamlined tools and digestible guidance that are available at no cost.

MITRE and the Cloud Security Alliance collaborated to establish the Cloud Adversarial, Vectors, Exploits, and Threats (CAVEaT™) platform which provides cloud security professionals with the cloud service specific threat and mitigation content a cloud security practitioner requires to effectively engineer and implement cyber countermeasures. CAVEaT won a Publisher's Choice honor for “Industry Collaboration for Digital Infrastructure Security.”

In 2024, the Global InfoSec Awards recognized MITRE ATLAS™ for its role in identifying and mapping the unique security vulnerabilities of AI-enabled systems. Building on this foundation of threat characterization, MITRE introduced and expanded ATLAS Mitigations—an actionable set of security techniques and best practices designed to help organizations defend against specifically aligned AI security threats. By extending ATLAS to include actionable defenses against demonstrated threats, Mitigations informs industry and government with actions they can take to strengthen AI security and assurance. In 2025, the Global InfoSec Awards honored ATLAS Mitigations with its Publisher's Choice designation for the adversarial machine-learning threat mitigation category.

Beyond ATLAS in 2024, MITRE won two other Global InfoSec Awards for its work with the Cyber Resiliency Engineering Framework (CREF) Navigator™ and MITRE Caldera™. In 2023, MITRE earned Global InfoSec Awards for D3FENDMITRE Engage, and the Center for Threat-Informed Defense.
