A night to remember: Surevine at the UK IT Industry Awards

Last month, Surevine were honoured to attend the UK IT Industry Awards as a finalist in the Security Innovation of the Year category. It was a brilliant evening, bringing together the best of the UK's technology industry to celebrate the projects and teams making a real difference.

For Surevine, the evening was more than an awards ceremony. It was a chance to reflect on the challenges we solve, the partnerships we've built, and the innovation driving our mission to make the cyber world safer.

Security Innovation of the Year Finalists

Our shortlisted solution tackles one of the most critical challenges facing CISOs today: managing the complexities of supply chain security in an evolving threat landscape.

Drawing on our experience supporting the NHS during the pandemic and adopting architectural principles proven in NATO's federated systems, this solution is designed to empower organisations with:

·       Adaptability: Designed for the plasticity of complex organisations that rapidly evolve.

·       Federated design: Organisations can choose between hosting their own instance to retain control or joining an existing one.

·       Interoperability: By adopting the CSAF standard, it integrates seamlessly with existing tools, avoiding lock-in to proprietary formats.

·       Ease of deployment: Available as a SaaS solution or a private instance for organisations with stricter requirements.

·       Secure by design: Built with the rigour that earned Surevine its "Cyber Supplier to Government" status, ensuring sensitive information is protected and shared securely.

·       Full API support: Allowing integrations with existing systems, enhancing operational workflows.

A Product Built in the UK, for the UK

Every element has been designed, developed, and supported in the UK. This process ensures it meets UK Government clients' high security and governance standards while keeping sensitive development expertise onshore. It's a testament to the incredible talent within the UK's tech sector and Surevine's commitment to delivering robust, dependable solutions.

The Journey

From a thorough discovery phase to iterative alpha testing, real-world needs have shaped this innovation. By the time of the awards ceremony, it had reached the significant milestone of being ready for beta.

Celebrating the Industry

The UK IT Industry Awards, hosted by BCS, the Chartered Institute for IT and Computing, celebrated the talent and innovation driving change across sectors. From revolutionary healthcare solutions to advances in cyber security, every finalist reminded us of the power of collaboration and the impact of bold ideas.

Being recognised alongside such inspiring organisations reinforces our belief in the importance of partnership. In delivering platforms like the one for which we were nominated as finalists, we know that our work is not in isolation. It's a collective effort, and we are grateful for the support and collaboration that has produced the best outcomes. Together, we are making a difference in the cybersecurity landscape.

Looking Ahead

As the solution moves into public beta, we are excited about its potential across multiple sectors. From central government to private sector supply chains, the system's flexibility and interoperability make it a game-changer for improving resilience and enabling rapid responses to cyber threats.

We look forward to sharing more as we continue this journey and invite you to contact us if you face challenges securing your supply chain.
