Cerby joins 15 emerging cybersecurity companies selected from 158 applicants across 10 countries.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA — September 28, 2026 — Cerby, the fastest-growing identity security automation platform for disconnected applications, today announced it was selected as a 2026 SINET16 Honoree, joining 15 other emerging cybersecurity companies recognized by SINET.
SINET selected the 2026 honorees from 158 applicants representing 10 countries. More than 100 cybersecurity professionals participated in SINET’s evaluation process, bringing perspectives from security leadership, government, investment, and other areas of the industry. Companies are considered based on the security problems they address, the strength of their approach, and their potential to make an impact in the market.
Cerby addresses a gap in many enterprise identity programs: disconnected applications that don't support standards and interfaces such as SAML, OIDC, SCIM, or APIs. These applications can sit outside traditional identity systems, leaving security and IT teams to manage access through manual processes. Cerby brings disconnected apps into existing identity programs so organizations can apply identity controls and automate workflows across more of their application environment.
“Disconnected apps have been treated as exceptions to the identity program for too long,” said Belsasar Lepe, CEO and co-founder of Cerby. “When an application doesn’t support the standards your identity tools depend on, that shouldn’t mean security and IT teams have to manage it by hand. Being selected as a 2026 SINET16 Honoree is meaningful recognition from a community that understands the security challenges enterprises are working to solve.”
SINET brings together cybersecurity leaders, investors, government organizations, and emerging technology companies to advance innovation and collaboration across the security industry. Its SINET16 program recognizes emerging cybersecurity companies addressing significant security challenges.
Cerby will join the other 2026 SINET16 Honorees at SINETNew York on October 8.
