Nozomi Networks says Gartner named it a 2026 Customers’ Choice for CPS protection

Nozomi Networks said on Sept. 1 that Gartner named it a 2026 Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for CPS Protection Platforms.

The San Francisco company said the category covers tools that discover, categorize, map and protect cyber-physical systems in mission-critical environments.

In its release, Nozomi said the recognition reflects customer feedback as organizations try to secure operational technology and related networks.

According to the company’s release, Nozomi had a 4.9 rating based on 140 verified end-user reviews as of June 2026, and 99% of reviewers said they would recommend the product. Nozomi also said it was the only vendor in the CPS Protection market named a Customers’ Choice for a second consecutive year.

The release said Gartner defines CPS Protection Platforms as products that protect systems outside enterprise IT and work with industrial or industry-specific protocols and operational network traffic. It also said such platforms can be delivered from the cloud, on-premises or in hybrid form.

Nozomi said it had earlier been recognized in 2026 as a Leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for CPS Protection Platforms for a second consecutive year. The company said its platform is designed for industrial, commercial and critical infrastructure environments and supports customers on six continents.

CEO and co-founder Andrea Carcano said in the release that the threat landscape is rapidly evolving and that critical infrastructure is a top target. He said the recognition is the highest validation the company could receive and that it strengthens the company’s resolve to put customer needs first.

The release also included two customer testimonials, one from a transportation company customer in IT and security risk management and another from an energy utilities plant OT administrator. The transportation customer praised post-sales support, while the energy utilities customer praised visibility into the network and the support team.

Gartner’s disclaimer in the release said it does not endorse vendors or advise users to select only those with the highest ratings or designation. It also said Gartner Peer Insights content reflects individual end-user opinions and is not a statement of fact by Gartner or its affiliates.
