GoNextStage Named Among Business Insider’s Top 5 Cybersecurity Companies

Effective cybersecurity for businesses today is about more than protection against attacks. It also means regulatory compliance, well-structured processes, secure data, and readiness for crisis situations. GoNextStage helps organizations meet NIS2, ISO 27001, and SIEM-related requirements, while also supporting them in identifying and managing risk across the business. This business-focused approach to risk prioritization has been recognized in the ranking of the 5 best companies supporting cybersecurity in business in 2026, prepared for Business Insider.

Cybersecurity in companies is increasingly moving beyond a set of technical safeguards. Especially in the context of NIS2, it also covers risk management, board accountability, and day-to-day operational decisions. This is exactly where GoNextStage work: at the intersection of regulation, processes, and the real-life functioning of organizations. Our goal is to make security something that can be managed every day, not just discussed during an annual audit, says Stanisław Korwin-Kossakowski, CEO of GoNextStage.

GoNextStage is already developing tools designed to translate regulatory requirements and security framework assumptions into day-to-day organizational practice. The goal is not only to help companies meet formal obligations, but above all to enable them to build lasting operational resilience and manage risk more consciously.

We believe security is fundamentally a business decision. This direction is becoming increasingly clear: NIS2 is turning cybersecurity from a technical issue into a legal obligation, and companies are no longer looking for just another antivirus solution. They need an approach that allows them to respond quickly, in a documented way, and in line with NIS2 and ISO 27001 requirements, while also understanding which risks truly matter for business continuity, compliance, and organizational security. Organizations need and want clear accountability, risk assessment, and a defined decision-making path.

That is why we are currently putting the finishing touches on our ISMS management application. It is designed to address a common situation in organizations where policies exist and documentation is in place, but day-to-day system management gets lost somewhere along the way, says Jacek Paudyn, CEO of GoNextStage.

GoNextStage’s inclusion in the Business Insider ranking is an important signal for the company that an approach combining cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, and business perspective responds to real market needs. The company continues to expand its offering to help organizations build security maturity and prepare for the regulatory and operational challenges of the years ahead.
