Mazal tov to this year’s Jewish finalists

Jewish innovators, leaders, and emerging impact makers are being recognised in the 2026 Australian Cyber Awards, with several named last month as finalists.

The awards, which is in its fourth year, identifies and recognises high achievers and excellence in people and businesses in the cyber sector nationwide; rather than for products and platforms.

Spanning 33 individual and group categories, the awards celebrates the best and brightest in the field, and is open to all businesses operating in Australia that support the cyber supply chain.

In conjunction with event stakeholders Cyber Daily, Momentum Media, and a panel of leading cyber professionals, submissions are thoroughly reviewed and assessed by a judging panel that considers growth, business development, diversity, leadership, innovation, business excellence, and contribution to the sector in Australia.

Jeremy Ungar, the Israel Trade and Economic Commission in Australia’s senior trade officer, was named one of 10 finalists for Cyber Professional of the Year – Government.
