Nominations are open now and the event will take place on the 20th of June at Tapa Tapa restaurant near London’s Excel from 6pm, after doors close for Infosecurity Europe that day. Previous award winners include renowned blogging and podcast stars such as Troy Hunt, creator of Have I Been Pwned, Smashing Security co-hosts Graham Cluley and Carole Theriault, and Geoff White, creator of the Lazarus Heist.

Awards will be given to worthy recipients with titles such as The Noob for best new blog/vlog/podcast, The Teacher for best educational blog/vlog/podcast, The Tech Whizz for best technical content and the Best Social Media Account to Follow. Finally, The All-Rounder will be awarded to the best overall blog/vlog/podcast.

“I’m pleased to have taken part in these awards in some capacity over the past decade, having won a few myself,” said Javvad Malik, lead security awareness advocate at KnowBe4. “Content is continually evolving and it’s great to see more vlogs and podcasts emerging that keep cybersecurity discussions intriguing and yes it is possible that they’re often humorous and occasionally fun. I love the idea of taking a subject like cybersecurity that may be thought of as dull initially and turning it into something that is truly insightful, as well as entertaining.”

Nominations will close on Thursday, the 20th of April 2023. A shortlist will then be revealed and opened to the public vote. The results will be tallied and combined with the judges’ – including KnowBe4’s very own Javvad Malik – top picks to determine the winners. Finally, the process will culminate with a live, in-person event at Tapa Tapa restaurant, next door to the Excel Conference Centre, on the first evening of Infosecurity Europe (20th June 2023).
