TrustLogix Earns Honorable Mention in Tech Ascension Awards' 2026 Cybersecurity Innovation Leaders

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TrustAI recognized for governing how AI agents and MCP-connected tools access enterprise data

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, August 10, 2026 — TrustLogix, the AI-ready data security platform, today announced that Tech Ascension Awards named the company an honorable mention among its 2026 Cybersecurity Innovation Leaders, in the category of Excellence in AI Agent Data Governance. The recognition, awarded alongside the program's category winners, honors TrustAI, TrustLogix's policy control plane for governing AI agents, copilots, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) connected tools at the data layer.

The Tech Ascension Awards program recognizes cybersecurity companies whose products show strong technical advancement, market relevance, and the potential to deliver real security outcomes. Honorable mentions sit alongside category winners as part of a distinguished group whose products stood out for addressing significant and emerging cybersecurity challenges. TrustAI earned its spot in that group for enforcing policy directly at the data source rather than relying only on controls at the application, model, or network layer.

TrustAI evaluates every data request before information reaches an agent, applying policy based on identity, context, intent, and the permissions of the human user behind that agent. The platform includes just-in-time access, identity propagation, dynamic data masking, request-level auditing, and an MCP Data Gateway that inspects tool calls before execution. Its AI Kill Switch gives security teams a way to immediately suspend an agent's access to enterprise data without shutting down the underlying application or data platform.

"Every enterprise racing to deploy AI agents runs into the same wall: security teams can't tell you what an agent actually touched, or stop it fast enough when something goes wrong," said Ron Longo, CEO of TrustLogix. "TrustAI closes that gap. It puts real control, not just visibility, directly at the data layer. Being named alongside this year's Cybersecurity Innovation Leaders tells us we're solving the right problem, and our customers are already proving it out in production."

TrustAI organizes AI data protection into four connected layers: visibility across agents and MCP servers, centralized policy definition, runtime enforcement with a kill switch and just-in-time access, and continuous audit for compliance frameworks including SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, and the NIST AI RMF.

TrustLogix customers have used the platform to shorten access provisioning from weeks to minutes and cut remediation time by as much as 90%.

TrustLogix's honorable mention was announced alongside honorees recognized across categories including agentic security operations, digital trust infrastructure, and operational technology security. The full list of 2026 Cybersecurity Innovation Leaders is available on the Tech Ascension Awards website.
