Press Release: Memcyco Wins Gold in 2026 Global InfoSec Awards for Best Solution – Account Takeover Protection

San Francisco, California – Memcyco, a leader in real-time digital impersonation and account takeover (ATO) fraud prevention, has been named Gold Winner for “Best Solution – Account Takeover Protection” in the 2026 Global InfoSec Awards, presented by Cyber Defense Magazine at RSA Conference 2026.

The Global InfoSec Awards honor cybersecurity companies that demonstrate a unique, forward-looking approach to solving today’s most pressing security challenges. Memcyco was recognized for its ability to predict, detect, and disrupt account takeover attacks in real time, protecting both organizations and their customers during active fraud attempts.

This marks the second consecutive year Memcyco has been recognized at the Global InfoSec Awards, reinforcing the company’s growing reputation for innovation in digital fraud and impersonation protection.

“Winning this award again reflects the urgency of the problem we’re solving,” said Israel Mazin, CEO of Memcyco. “Account takeover attacks are increasingly sophisticated and often bypass traditional defenses. Our platform closes the exposure gap by identifying victims and disrupting fraud attempts while they’re still unfolding.”

Memcyco’s platform combines device fingerprinting, credential deception, and real-time threat visibility to give enterprises full control over phishing and impersonation attacks. Rather than relying on reactive approaches such as domain monitoring or takedowns alone, Memcyco operates during the attack itself, detecting impersonation sites and protecting users as attacks develop.

By identifying compromised credentials, alerting users in real time, and feeding attackers marked decoy data, the platform prevents stolen credentials from being used to compromise legitimate accounts. At the same time, security teams gain detailed forensic insight into attacker infrastructure, devices, and tactics involved in impersonation campaigns, enabling faster response and improved fraud prevention.

“We scoured the globe looking for cybersecurity innovators that could make a huge difference and potentially help turn the tide against the exponential growth in cybercrime. Memcyco is absolutely worthy of this coveted award and consideration for deployment in your environment,” said Yan Ross, Global Editor of Cyber Defense Magazine.

The judging panel, composed of CISSP, CEH, and FMDHS-certified security professionals, evaluated nominees based on innovation, market relevance, and their ability to address emerging cybersecurity threats. Memcyco was selected from a global pool of cybersecurity companies for its unique approach to real-time fraud disruption and victim protection.
