11th August, 2026:

Mantel has been named the Australia and New Zealand Rising Star Partner of the Year for 2026 by Wiz, at the Build with Wiz: Partner Summit in Sydney, held at the Museum of Contemporary Art.

This award recognises the secure outcomes Wiz and Mantel have jointly delivered for our clients, using Wiz’s leading cloud and code security platform and Mantel’s delivery capability at the intersection of cyber security, engineering, and cloud.

Mantel’s depth in cyber engineering, security consulting, and AI, drawn from hundreds of cloud and cloud security projects, puts us in a strong position to partner with Wiz. The technology fits alongside the security stacks our clients already run, and it opens the door to lifting their security operating models at the same time.

Across Australia and New Zealand, we’ve worked with joint customers to optimise security controls, strengthen security posture, and reduce risk in a threat landscape that AI is reshaping quickly.

“We are honoured to receive the Wiz Rising Star Partner of the Year award for the Australia/New Zealand region. This award is a testament to our strong partnership in collaboration with Wiz, the technical excellence of our cyber and cloud engineering teams who are working with clients every day to strengthen their resilience using contemporary security controls like Wiz, and the trust of our clients in us. We look forward to growing and developing our Wiz partnership further in the future.”
