Omada Receives 2026 AI in Cybersecurity Innovation Award from TMCnet

Recognition highlights Omada’s AI-driven approach to continuous identity risk detection and governed access control

COPENHAGEN, Denmark — July 21, 2026 — Omada A/S (“Omada”), a global leader of AI-powered Identity Security and Governance, announced today that TMC, a global, integrated media company, has awarded Omada Identity Cloud as a 2026 AI in Cybersecurity Innovation Award winner.

The award recognizes solutions that demonstrate measurable, innovative use of AI to address cybersecurity challenges. Omada Identity Cloud was recognized for its AI-driven approach to identity governance, which moves organizations from periodic compliance reviews to continuous risk detection and remediation.

Omada Identity Cloud uses AI to continuously detect and remediate identity risk, replacing the periodic review cycles that leave organizations exposed between audits. Access Intelligence applies machine learning across connected systems to identify dormant accounts, excessive privileges, and anomalous access combinations as they emerge, routing findings directly to governed remediation workflows. Javi, Omada’s AI agent embedded in Microsoft Teams and Slack, brings those findings to the people who need to act on them, enabling access decisions, approvals, and compliance reporting through natural language without switching systems. Contextual Identity Governance keeps access aligned with how work actually happens, automatically adjusting entitlements as duties, projects, and organizational structures change, so risk does not accumulate between review cycles.

Customers using Omada Identity Cloud report a 75% reduction in identity risk, a 60% decline in IT support tickets, and a 50% reduction in audit preparation time.

Identity governance has historically been one of the hardest security controls to keep current,” said Rick Weinberg, Chief Product Officer, Omada. “Organizations run access reviews, close the gaps they find, and then watch entitlements drift again before the next cycle. The reason Omada won this award is that we solved a different problem: how do you make governance continuous rather than corrective? We are proud to see that approach recognized, and we will keep pushing to make identity governance faster, more accurate, and easier to sustain.

That same approach is now being extended to AI agents. As AI agents take on greater responsibility within enterprise environments, they also accumulate access that organizations cannot afford to leave ungoverned. Omada Agent Governance will give organizations visibility into who owns each agent, what systems and data it can reach, and whether the access it holds is actually being used, applying the same least-privilege and accountability principles that IGA has long enforced for human identities.

Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC, said: “It gives me great pleasure to honor Omada as a 2026 recipient of TMC’s AI in Cybersecurity Innovation Awards for their cutting-edge solution, Omada Identity Cloud. Our judges were very impressed with the innovative and impactful use of AI technology displayed by Omada in their groundbreaking work on identity security and governance.

Winners of the 2026 AI in Cybersecurity Innovation Awards have been announced on TMCnet.
