BreachRx Recognized as a Cool Vendor™ in the Gartner® Coolest Vendor™ Innovations in Cyber Resilience 2026
Gartner states, “Cyber resilience is evolving beyond post incident recovery to continuous readiness and an organization’s ability to anticipate, withstand, recover, and adapt. Organizations increasingly need capabilities that validate recoverability, orchestrate cross-functional response activities, and provide confidence that critical business services can be restored when needed.”
The report notes, “Cyberattacks increasingly threaten organizations’ ability to maintain and restore critical business operations. Traditional recovery plans, periodic testing, and disconnected response tools create a “recoverability gap” between having recovery capabilities and proving that critical services can withstand and recover from an attack.
To close this gap, cybersecurity and I&O leaders need cyber resilience technologies that continuously assess recovery readiness, coordinate enterprise-wide incident response, and prevent destructive changes before impact.”
Cyber Resilience Requires More Than Technical Response
Modern cyber incidents quickly move beyond the SOC. Security teams may be investigating and containing an attack while legal evaluates privilege and exposure, privacy determines notification obligations, communications prepares stakeholder messaging, executives make business decisions, and outside counsel, insurers, regulators, and other parties become involved.
The BreachRx take: That is precisely the problem BreachRx was built to solve. The Rex Platform™ provides a single system of record for coordinating the entire incident response lifecycle across security and the broader organization. Instead of relying on disconnected tickets, spreadsheets, email threads, collaboration tools, and static plans, teams can manage workflows, evidence, regulatory obligations, decisions, assignments, and response activity in one governed environment.
Agentic AI Built Into the Response
As facts change during an incident, that context matters. Reporting obligations can change. Assignments can change. Decisions can create new downstream actions. The response process has to adapt while preserving human oversight and accountability.
The BreachRx take: This is where agentic AI can become more than another productivity tool. Embedded directly into the incident workflow, AI can help teams scale the coordination work that increasingly determines whether an organization can respond quickly, consistently, and defensibly.
A Broader View of Cyber Resilience
The BreachRx take: For CISOs, incident response leaders, general counsel, privacy teams, and organizations facing growing regulatory and executive accountability, that makes incident response management an increasingly important part of the resilience strategy. Gartner specifically identifies these groups among those who should pay attention to the BreachRx approach.
As more of the market moves toward the model reflected in this report, the organizations best positioned won’t be the ones with the most recovery tools — they’ll be the ones that can prove, in the moment, that the whole business can respond.
