Guardsquare Earns Platinum in 2026 Pinnacle Awards for Technology

Pinnacle Awards recognize AppSweep by Guardsquare for innovation in Mobile Application Security Testing

BOSTON and LEUVEN, Belgium – July 2, 2026 – Guardsquare, the leading provider of mobile application security, won a Platinum Award in the 2026 Pinnacle Awards for Technology. The company’s mobile application security testing (MAST) product, AppSweep, was recognized for pushing the boundaries of innovation. The Pinnacle Awards honor companies, individuals, and programs that lead with vision and drive success.

“The 2026 Pinnacle Award winners represent the highest tier of real-world performance and innovation,” said Kate Lang, Executive Director of the Pinnacle Awards. “AppSweep’s Platinum-winning approach is redefining how organizations tackle mobile app security deployment and testing, making the modern CI/CD process faster, safer, and remarkably more efficient.”

The recognition comes as organizations continue to face mounting mobile application security challenges. Guardsquare's Changing State of Mobile App Security report found that 97% of organizations believe they have up-to-date policies outlining mobile app security requirements, yet 62% experienced at least one mobile security incident in the past 12 months, averaging nine incidents per organization.

AppSweep helps development teams identify and remediate security vulnerabilities early in the software development lifecycle. Designed for Android and iOS, it combines static and interactive security testing with developer-friendly guidance to fix identified risks in application code and third-party dependencies. By integrating seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines and aligning with OWASP Mobile Application Security Verification Standard (MASVS) requirements, AppSweep helps organizations strengthen mobile application security while accelerating software delivery.

"We're proud to receive Platinum recognition from the Pinnacle Awards, which reflects our commitment to helping development teams build secure mobile applications without slowing innovation," said Erica Sheehan, Chief Marketing Officer of Guardsquare. “As organizations accelerate mobile app delivery, security testing must be continuous and easy for developers to adopt. AppSweep empowers teams to identify and address vulnerabilities early, enabling them to deliver more secure mobile applications with greater confidence.”
