SIA Opens Call for Nominations for 2026 Women in Security Forum Power 100
The Security Industry Association (SIA) has opened the call for nominations for the 2026 SIA Women in Security Forum (WISF) Power 100. Now in its fifth year, this annual initiative, presented by the SIA Women in Security Forum community, honors 100 women in the security industry whose outstanding accomplishments and success stories are breaking barriers, redefining the faces of leadership and showcasing the innovative contributions women bring to the industry.
The Power 100 program recognizes women in security who model leadership, inspire others and shape and transform the industry. Honorees will be announced on Monday, March 9, 2026, immediately following International Women’s Day (Sunday, March 8), and recognized at a special SIA Women in Security Forum Power 100 breakfast event on Friday, March 27, 2026, at ISC West.
SIA highly encourages our member companies and the broader security community to nominate the inspiring women at their organizations and help us identify and honor these outstanding leaders.
Power 100 nominations are reviewed by the WISF IlluminateHER Subcommittee and evaluated on the criteria of quality of response, significance of achievement(s) and positive impact towards innovation, leadership and/or diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging.
Nominate an individual for the WISF Power 100 here. Individuals may nominate multiple individuals, and persons may also nominate themselves. Previous honorees are eligible to be renominated. All nominations must be submitted by Jan. 31, 2026.
