ZeroThreat Emerged as 2026 Community Choice Winner for Web Application Security by Cybersecurity Excellence Awards

USA, August 2026 - ZeroThreat, an AI-powered automated penetration testing platform for web applications and APIs, today proudly announced that it has been recognized as the 2026 Community Choice Winner in the Web Application Security category by the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards.

Chosen from a distinguished group of web application security providers, ZeroThreat received the highest level of support from customers, technology partners, cybersecurity professionals, and the broader security community. This recognition reflects the company's ongoing commitment to advancing application security through AI-powered pentesting that helps organizations uncover exploitable risks beyond the capabilities of basic vulnerability scanning.

This latest achievement builds on another significant recognition for ZeroThreat earlier this year. The company was previously honored with a Silver Winner in the 2026 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards under the Web Application Security category, further demonstrating its continued innovation and expanding recognition within the cybersecurity industry.

ZeroThreat pairs attacker-style reasoning with exploit validation and application-aware testing to surface real, exploitable attack paths while keeping false positives to a minimum. Security teams get a way to continuously test their web applications and APIs, and to focus their time on vulnerabilities that carry genuine business risk.

"Winning the 2026 Community Choice Award for Web Application Security means a lot to us," said Dharmesh Acharya, Co-Founder of ZeroThreat. "It's a direct reflection of the trust our customers, partners, and the broader cybersecurity community have placed in what we're building. As modern applications continue to evolve in complexity, our focus remains on helping organizations uncover real, exploitable security risks through continuous AI-powered penetration testing that delivers meaningful and actionable security outcomes."
