Spharaka Networks Wins Autonomous Cyber Defence Platform of the Year
Hyderabad, India
Spharaka Networks Private Limited has been named Autonomous Cyber Defence Platform of the Year at the 13th CIO Conclave and Awards 2026. The award recognises Spharaka Sphere™, the company's AI-native platform for autonomous security operations.
The category rewards platforms that change how a security operation works rather than adding a tool to it. Sphere™ investigates and responds without a person in the middle of every step: for supported detections it completes the investigation in under sixty seconds, contains the large majority in seconds, and escalates only the genuinely difficult fraction, with the timeline reconstructed and a recommended response already attached.
What the platform does differently
Sphere™ consolidates seven AI-native capabilities onto one data foundation rather than integrating separate products after the fact: AI SIEM, AI SOAR, XDR, AI UEBA, EDR, cyber threat intelligence and autonomous threat hunting.
Underneath it sit SAGE™, a cybersecurity-specific language model sized to run inside a customer's own data centre, and AuraXP™, which coordinates more than forty specialised agents on one shared case. Because SAGE™ runs locally, the platform behaves the same on an air-gapped network as it does in the cloud.

Spharaka was a silver partner at the 13th edition and presented on the conference programme. Photographs from the event are in the Media Hub.
