Cosmikal Awarded the CCN-CERT 2025 CPSTIC Award in the SME Category

Cosmikal received on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, the STIC Products and Services Catalog (CPSTIC) Award granted by the CCN-CERT (National Cryptologic Center) in the SME category, in recognition of its commitment to technological excellence and innovation in the field of cybersecurity. The award ceremony took place in Madrid, within the framework of the STIC 2025 Conference, a nationally recognized event that brings together professionals from the public, private, and academic sectors.

The award was accepted by Cosmikal’s CEO, Luis Miguel González, who highlighted the work of the CCN and the importance of such recognitions for national companies. González emphasized that the CPSTIC represents “a guarantee of quality and that the product is developed with sufficient and necessary security parameters,” allowing national manufacturers to compete with major international technology corporations. He also stressed that Cosmikal is “a Spanish company” committed to security, usability, and contributing to an ecosystem that ensures national sovereignty in data protection.

The CPSTIC: A Benchmark Standard in ICT Security

The Catalog of ICT Security Products and Services (CPSTIC) is an official tool managed by the CCN that groups technological solutions previously evaluated in terms of security, interoperability, development quality, and technical support. Its objective is to help public administrations, essential service operators, and entities with regulatory obligations identify products and services that meet rigorous security criteria.

Being recognized with a CPSTIC Award signifies that the organization has demonstrated a tangible commitment to the security standards required to be included in the catalog. For Cosmikal, this distinction highlights its capacity for innovation, as well as its offering of products certified by the CCN itself, which vouches for the reliability and robustness of its solutions.

A Milestone in Cosmikal’s Journey: LINCE Certification and National Reference in PAM Taxonomy

The award comes at a key moment for Cosmikal: in 2025, its product Endurance, specialized in hardened remote work environments and privileged access management (PAM), obtained LINCE certification, becoming the only Spanish company included in the CPSTIC within this taxonomy, and one of only three worldwide.

This recognition not only confirms the product’s technical excellence but also positions Cosmikal as an official reference for public administrations and entities managing essential services or critical infrastructures. The LINCE certification evaluates criteria such as security architecture, resistance to vulnerabilities, compliance with the Fundamental Security Requirements of the National Security Framework (ENS), technical and operational documentation, and reliability guarantees.
