Ivanti, a global enterprise IT and security software company, announced that Autonomous Patch Management has been named the winner of the Best Endpoint Security Solution category in the 2026 Tech Ascension Awards.
The Tech Ascension Awards recognize leading innovations across the technology industry. Applicants are evaluated based on technological innovation, market impact, measurable performance and competitive differentiation. The companies receiving recognition demonstrated how their technologies solve critical industry challenges and deliver meaningful business outcomes for their customers.
The challenge for many IT and security teams is keeping pace with a growing volume of vulnerabilities across increasingly distributed and complex endpoint environments. AI-driven vulnerability discovery continues to accelerate the pace and scale of new exposures, leaving organizations with more vulnerabilities to assess and less time to remediate them. At the same time, asset, vulnerability and remediation data are frequently spread across disconnected solutions, making it difficult to coordinate action across the environment.
As part of Ivanti's Autonomous Endpoint Management solution, Ivanti Autonomous Patch Management helps organizations close the gap between vulnerability discovery and remediation through a unified system of record that continuously connects asset intelligence, vulnerability context and remediation activity. Key capabilities of Ivanti Autonomous Patch Management include:
- Risk-based Prioritization: Ivanti's Vulnerability Risk Rating (VRR) evaluates each CVE based on exploitability, active threat intelligence and validated attack techniques to help organizations identify which vulnerabilities are most likely to impact their environment. This enables teams to focus remediation efforts where they will have the greatest impact and reduce risk more efficiently.
- Continuous Compliance: Automatically identifies and remediates out-of-compliance endpoints, including devices that miss scheduled deployments. This helps organizations maintain consistent patch coverage, reduce exposure created by deployment gaps and ensure compliance data reflects actual endpoint conditions.
- Autonomous and Predictive Remediation: Moving beyond traditional patch automation, predictive remediation helps teams forecast compliance outcomes, surface remediation blockers before SLA windows close, and translate security priorities into governed, executable patch action.
For customers, this means greater confidence in their ability to reduce risk, maintain compliance and keep remediation efforts aligned with security objectives across the endpoint estate.
“The patch management landscape has fundamentally changed, driven in part by AI and increasingly automated threat activity. This new reality requires organizations to rethink approaches that were built around periodic patch cycles and deliver a more continuous, adaptive approach to vulnerability remediation,” said Chris Goettl, Vice President, Product Management, Endpoint Security at Ivanti. “We're proud to be recognized by Tech Ascension for our continued innovation in this space and our commitment to helping customers solve the challenges IT and security teams face today."
“Cybersecurity teams are being asked to defend a rapidly expanding attack surface shaped by AI, cloud adoption, identity-based threats, and increasingly sophisticated cybercrime,” said David Campbell, CEO, Tech Ascension Awards. “The 2026 Cybersecurity Tech Ascension Award winners stood out for delivering innovative solutions that address these challenges while producing measurable improvements in security, resilience, and operational efficiency. These companies are helping define how organizations will protect their data, infrastructure, applications, and people in the years ahead.”
