IronCircle, the AI-powered cybersecurity workforce company, has been named winner of two major categories — Most Innovative AI Training and Most Innovative Cybersecurity Training — in the 2025 Top InfoSec Innovators Awards presented by Cyber Defense Magazine.
The dual recognition underscores IronCircle’s pioneering approach to cybersecurity education in the AI-powered threat era, setting a new benchmark for how the next generation of defenders is trained, tested, and certified.
Redefining Cybersecurity Training for the AI Era
Unlike traditional cybersecurity certification platforms, IronCircle was built from the ground up as an AI-native training environment, where learning adapts dynamically to the user’s skill level, performance, and decision-making under pressure.
Its immersive platform integrates:
- Adaptive intelligence that tailors challenges in real time;
- Hands-on labs mirroring real-world attack and defense scenarios; and
- Simulated operations environments that help trainees perform under real cyber pressure.
“In reviewing hundreds of submissions this year, IronCircle distinguished itself as a true innovator,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine. “Its AI-native approach to workforce development addresses one of cybersecurity’s most pressing challenges: preparing skilled professionals who can meet the demands of an increasingly complex threat landscape.”
Building the Cyber Workforce of the Future
IronCircle’s mission centers on closing the global cybersecurity talent gap through continuous, AI-driven learning — enabling individuals, universities, and enterprises to build resilience against evolving threats.
“At IronCircle, we’re forging the future of cybersecurity talent through innovation that actually moves the needle,” said James C. Foster, CEO of IronCircle. “These awards reinforce our belief that effective cybersecurity training must go beyond theory. It must challenge, adapt, and evolve as quickly as the threats we face.”
