WOBURN, Mass.—Advanced Data Risk Management (ADRM) has announced that its DEFENDER security management platform was awarded the 2025 Security Industry Association (SIA) New Products and Solutions Award for Best in Managed Services.

This recognition underscores DEFENDER’s position as a leading solution in the security industry, the company stated.

“We extend our heartfelt thanks to the judges and the SIA for acknowledging DEFENDER as an industry trailblazer,” said Dan O’Neill, president and CEO of ADRM. “This accolade reflects our commitment to simplifying security management and empowering organizations to safeguard their critical assets more effectively. I'm proud of the incredible ADRM team whose dedication and creativity brought DEFENDER to life.”

The DEFENDER platform was commercially launched on Feb. 4, 2025, and it sets a new standard for integrated security system management. DEFENDER provides a single-pane-of-glass view into various systems, including access control, video management, key control, and visitor management. Features such as real-time alerts, intuitive dashboards, and comprehensive reporting redefine the managed services landscape by automating essential processes and addressing significant gaps in traditional managed services provider offerings.

It significantly reduces vulnerabilities and liability for our clients.”

Key innovations of the DEFENDER platform include proactive monitoring of system health, license management, and integration with daily CISA reports to identify cyber vulnerabilities. This approach ensures that organizations are well-informed and prepared to act promptly to maintain system integrity.

“SIA congratulates the winners of the 2025 SIA NPS Awards,” added SIA CEO Don Erickson. “Each year, NPS presents the most cutting-edge products available on the market today, and our judges’ dedication, support and thorough consideration are invaluable in maintaining it as the most trusted awards program for launching new security technology solutions.”
