FireMon Named Market Leader in Network Security and Management In 13^th Cyber Defense Magazine’s Annual InfoSec Awards during CyberDefenseCon 2025

FireMon, the leading network security and firewall policy management company, is proud to announce that it has been named the winner for the following award from Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM), the industry’s leading electronic information security magazine: Market Leader in Network Security and Management.

“Being named a Market Leader in the 13th annual Cyber Defense Awards is a powerful validation of our mission,” said Jody Brazil, CEO of FireMon. “As enterprises embrace zero trust, microsegmentation, and hybrid architectures, network security policy management has become the backbone of operational security. FireMon is proud to lead this essential category, helping organizations reduce risk, enforce policy, and scale securely, because in today’s threat landscape, manual policy management is not sustainable.”

“FireMon stood out among this year’s InfoSec Award winners for its long-standing leadership in network security policy management. As enterprises push toward zero trust and microsegmentation, FireMon’s ability to automate policy enforcement across hybrid environments is not just innovative, it’s essential. Their deep visibility, continuous compliance capabilities, and category-defining approach made them an obvious choice for Market Leader in Network Security and Management,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine.
