Executive Summary

Linx Security has been named to the 2026 Fortune Cyber 60, presented by Fortune and Lightspeed Venture Partners, marking our third consecutive year of recognition among the most promising private cybersecurity companies.

The recognition comes as enterprises face a fundamental shift in security. Autonomous AI agents are increasingly accessing sensitive data, interacting with enterprise applications, and taking actions on behalf of people and organizations. Securing these agents requires understanding the identities, relationships, and permissions behind their actions, along with the context needed to evaluate risk and apply appropriate controls.

For Linx, this evolution reinforces a vision our founders recognized early: identity security must evolve beyond managing access in isolation to understanding the relationships and context behind every identity.

“When we founded Linx, we saw identity security becoming far more dynamic and interconnected,” said Niv, Co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Linx Security. “We built an AI-native platform around the belief that understanding identity relationships and context would be essential to securing increasingly complex environments. Autonomous AI agents are accelerating this evolution. Security teams need to understand not only who or what has access, but also the risks associated with the actions those identities take. This is the future we’ve been building toward.”

AI agent security starts with identity context

As AI agents become more autonomous, traditional approaches to identity security face new challenges. An agent’s risk is shaped by its permissions, the systems and data it interacts with, the identities it acts on behalf of, and the actions it performs.

Securing these environments requires a connected understanding of human, non-human, and AI agent identities.

Linx Security brings this context together through its AI-native identity security platform. Powered by a continuously updated Identity Graph, Linx maps identities, permissions, access paths, and relationships across enterprise environments, helping security teams identify risk, make informed decisions, and apply appropriate controls.

This approach connects identity security and governance with the emerging requirements of AI agent security, where understanding identity relationships, evaluating risk, and controlling actions are increasingly inseparable.

“Enterprises want to embrace the potential of AI agents, but they need confidence in how those agents access information and act across their environments,” said Israel Duanis, CEO and Co-founder of Linx Security. “Our focus is on giving organizations the identity context and security capabilities to move forward with confidence. Being recognized by Fortune and Lightspeed for the third consecutive year reflects the progress of our team and the trust our customers place in us.”

Celebrating three consecutive years of recognition

Linx Security’s inclusion in the 2026 Fortune Cyber 60 follows its recognition in 2024 and 2025, reflecting our continued progress in addressing evolving enterprise identity security challenges.

On October 28, Israel will represent Linx Security at the New York Stock Exchange opening bell ceremony alongside fellow Cyber 60 honorees.

We’re grateful to our customers, partners, investors, and the entire Linx team for helping advance our vision of securing every identity and the actions behind it.
