SOFTSWISS security chief Evgeny Zaretskov wins 2026 Top Global CISOs award

Evgeny Zaretskov was selected from thousands of candidates worldwide. The judges recognised the SOFTSWISS CISO’s ability to translate complex risks for senior leaders, prevent breaches and data loss, meet regulatory requirements, and build risk programmes with measurable impact. The award is part of Cyber Defense Magazine’s 14th annual Cyber Defense Awards, which recognise CISOs as the first responders of cyberspace. The magazine credits these leaders with defending organisations against cybercriminals, cyber terrorists, malicious insiders, and nation-state attacks while managing the risks and compliance demands that allow businesses to grow.
