The Security Industry Association (SIA) announced the 2024 winners of the SIA New Products and Solutions (NPS) Awards, the flagship awards program presented in partnership with ISC West recognizing innovative security products, services and solutions. 

Established in 1979, each year SIA NPS entries are reviewed by a panel of judges with extensive industry experience. This year, following significant deliberations, the 31 judges presented awards for technologies covering 30 product and service categories. 

IronYun received the Best New Product honor for its IronYun Vaidio AI Vision Platform 8.0 product, submitted in the Managed Services category. According to the company, managed service providers seek solutions that will improve operational efficiency and effectiveness. Vaidio 8.0 is said to be purpose built for service providers with a Kubernetes and Microservices-based architecture that virtualizes analytics functions and enables scalable, easy to manage, public- or private-cloud and subscription-based video analytics-as-a-service. 

The Judges’ Choice Award was presented to Swear for the Swear Authenticity Engine product, submitted in the Software category. The company bills the product as ensuring an unbreakable chain of custody for digital media, offering real-time, permanent protection of content authenticity through patented technology and immutable blockchain security. 

“This year’s SIA NPS Awards featured an outstanding array of new products and solutions in the security industry, and the judges were impressed by the 2024 pool of entrants,” said Josh Heisler, chair of the SIA NPS Awards Committee and global head of tech and tools at Amazon. “Following an extensive process of technology demonstrations and panel-driven judging, we were honored to select the 2024 awardees, and we congratulate all the winners. Thank you to our expert judges for your support and dedication and for lending your valuable time and expertise to help make the 2024 SIA NPS program a success.” 

Additionally, Chris Grniet received the NPS Merit Award, which recognizes an individual or company who, through their support of the SIA NPS Awards, demonstrates a commitment to the vision and mission of the program, contributes to its success and promotes the advancement of SIA and the security industry overall. 

“The SIA NPS Program is the most recognized global platform for launching new products each year. SIA applauds the 2024 SIA NPS Awards honorees of this year’s highly competitive program,” said SIA CEO Don Erickson. “Thanks to the always-thorough consideration of the judges, the SIA NPS Awards is the most trusted awards program for new security technologies, and earning recognition in the NPS awards is a major accomplishment. We congratulate all this year’s award winners, and especially IronYun and Swear, whose offerings stood out among the pool of entrants to earn the Best New Product and Judges’ Choice distinctions, as well as SIA NPS Merit Award winner Chris Grniet.”
