Cerby Named to 2026 Cyber 150 as Demand Surges for Securing Disconnected Apps

New updates have been reported about Cerby.

Cerby has been selected for IT-Harvest’s 2026 Cyber 150 list, spotlighting it as one of the fastest-growing midsized cybersecurity companies globally and underscoring the market traction of its identity automation platform. The company’s growth is being driven by rising enterprise demand to secure “disconnected” applications—business-critical cloud and SaaS tools that sit outside traditional identity systems and lack support for standards such as SAML, OIDC, or SCIM.

As organizations expand their cloud estates, more applications remain beyond the reach of conventional identity and access management tools, forcing IT and security teams into manual, error-prone access workflows that create identity risk and visibility gaps. Cerby’s platform addresses this by extending enterprise identity controls, including credential management, MFA, provisioning, and governance, to these unmanaged applications without requiring native integrations or SSO support, enabling what CEO and co‑founder Belsasar Lepe describes as 100% app coverage at scale.

The company reports accelerating adoption from large global brands, including Fox, Colgate-Palmolive, Ford, Mattel, L’Oréal, Monday.com, e.l.f. Beauty, Productiv, and ClickUp, signaling that securing disconnected apps is becoming a mainstream enterprise priority rather than a niche exception. By automating identity management for these applications and integrating with existing IdP and IGA platforms, Cerby reduces manual workloads, strengthens security controls, and improves audit readiness across complex application environments.

Recognition in the Cyber 150 positions Cerby among a cohort of cybersecurity vendors that IT-Harvest identifies as addressing some of the most pressing challenges in identity, cloud security, application security, and emerging AI-driven solutions. For executives, the inclusion validates Cerby’s strategy to build a category around securing applications that traditional identity systems overlook and suggests continued growth potential as shadow IT and fragmented SaaS adoption expand the attack surface.

Lepe emphasized that disconnected applications can no longer be treated as exceptions and argued that Cerby’s ability to secure such apps without native standard support is central to its current demand trajectory. The Cyber 150 ranking, combined with a high-profile enterprise customer base, signals that Cerby is consolidating its position as a category leader in identity automation for disconnected applications and may be well-placed to capture further share as enterprises seek holistic identity coverage.
