I'm proud to announce Runlayer's latest award: a spot on Notable Capital's 2026 Rising in Cyber list.
This is no coincidence.
Rising in Cyber is voted on by 150 sitting CISOs and senior security executives. It's the closest thing the industry has to a peer-reviewed list of what enterprise security teams are actually adopting. Of the 30 honorees this year, we're the only golden path for agents, with both AI control and enablement in one platform.
Agents are coming. For many of you, they're already here. Every company we talk to has AI clients deployed in some form, and the teams using them are shipping faster than the teams that aren't. That trend is not reversing.
What every CISO I talk to is also seeing: the security stack their company built over the last decade was designed for humans clicking buttons and APIs being called from known services. It was not designed for an agent in a chat window deciding which of your connectors or skills to call against your most sensitive data. Your team wants to be AI-native. You want to push AI forward. But your security stack wasn't built for this.
That's the problem we started Runlayer to solve. AI enablement and control in one platform. A golden path that lets every employee delegate real work to agents, with the control plane your CISO needs underneath it.
The way to become an AI-native company is to give people a sanctioned path to do the work, not just to lock them out of it. Try to wall off AI and your engineers route around you in 48 hours. Build a path that's actually better than the unsanctioned one, and they line up to use it. That's the model the CISOs voting on this list are voting for.
To me, seeing our name in front of the NYSE validates the mission.
We work with AI-native teams like Instacart, Lemonade, and Gusto to give thousands of employees secure, enterprise-grade access to AI agents. Their security teams sleep better because we let AI in, on the right path, with the right controls.
A huge thank you to the 150 CISOs and security executives who voted us in, and to Notable Capital and Morgan Stanley for putting this list together. The security and AI leaders at our customers pushed us hard on what an enterprise control plane actually needs to do. We listened.
We're just getting started.
We'd love to show you what AI enablement and control look like in your stack. Get in touch.
