[Richmond Hill, ON] October 22, 2024 — Compugen Inc., the nation's largest privately-owned and operated Technology Ally, is proud to announce two significant achievements related to its valued partner, Cisco: winning the prestigious Cisco Fast Future Innovation Award (FFIA) for 2024 and renewing its Cisco Gold Integrator Status in Canada. These milestones reflect Compugen's ongoing dedication to providing leading-edge solutions, particularly in the cybersecurity space, as the company continues to innovate and drive results for its customers. 

The Cisco FFIA highlights Canadian businesses that leverage AI and advanced technologies to solve pressing business challenges. Compugen's winning submission focused on orchestrating AI-driven cybersecurity solutions that enhance the collaboration between human operators and AI systems. This approach ensures that AI supports decision-making while empowering security teams to focus on strategic, high-priority tasks. 

“Our submission stood out because it addressed a critical challenge—bridging the gap between AI models and human trust in the cybersecurity decision-making process,” said Ahmad Enaya, Principal Consultant - Networking + Security. “We’ve taken significant strides in humanizing AI, ensuring intuitive communication between AI systems and human operators. This not only boosts the efficiency of cybersecurity measures but also fosters a more interactive and responsive environment.” 

The FFIA recognition reaffirms Compugen’s leadership in cybersecurity innovation, particularly at a time when the threat landscape is becoming increasingly complex. By combining automation and AI, Compugen is helping organizations identify and neutralize threats faster while enabling cybersecurity teams to maximize their impact. 

In line with its commitment to shaping the future of cybersecurity, Compugen has also published a perspective paper on Bill C-26, addressing the implications of Canada’s evolving cybersecurity legislation. This comprehensive paper explores how organizations can adapt to the new regulatory landscape while enhancing their cybersecurity posture through advanced technologies like AI. 

In addition to winning the FFIA, Compugen has successfully renewed its Cisco Gold Integrator Status in Canada. This achievement further strengthens Compugen’s position as a trusted partner in delivering comprehensive, value-added Cisco solutions. The Gold status reflects Compugen’s robust sales capabilities, technical expertise, and commitment to driving results through Cisco’s portfolio. 

“We’re honoured to receive both of these important Cisco distinctions,” said Harry Zarek, President and CEO of Compugen. “These achievements highlight our relentless pursuit of innovation and our belief in the transformative power of AI and other cutting-edge technologies. As a trusted Technology Ally, we are dedicated to delivering solutions that help our customers thrive in a rapidly evolving landscape through collaboration and impactful results.”
