Now in its ninth year, the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards honour the top companies, technologies and products driving innovation and excellence across the global information security industry. This year’s programme received thousands of nominations from organisations around the world, making competition tougher than ever.

Salt Communications joins an elite group of winners for 2025, standing alongside major industry players including Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, Cisco, NETSCOUT, Abnormal AI, ExtraHop, Fastly, Cohesity, Sumo Logic, Barracuda, NetApp, Bitwarden, Proofpoint, Splunk, Trend Micro, Booz Allen Hamilton, AT&T Business and many more.

Nicole Heron, Head of Marketing at Salt Communications said: “This has indeed been a breakthrough year for Salt.  As global security challenges evolve, Salt Communications remains committed to delivering trusted, military-grade communication solutions that protect sensitive conversations for enterprises, governments and organisations worldwide. This award is a testament to the strength of our technology and the dedication of our team and we are honoured to receive this recognition from the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards.”  

Joe Boyle, Salt CEO said: “Salt’s isolated secure communications system is a key tool when you have a major outage or are under attack. In the UK in the past six months we have seen global brands like M&S, Co-op and JLR being targeted.  These attacks have hit home with the general public and impacted hundreds of thousands of people within these organisations and throughout their supply chain. Organisations are now feeling the urgency to have a mature incident work flow in place and Salt’s safe haven comms network allows a company to keep communicating when its other systems are not. This results in coherent dissemination of information across key groups and faster decision making in the critical first hours of an unfolding crisis.”
