CRN Recognizes Cavelo Flash for Reinventing How MSPs Turn Cyber Risk into Revenue

Cavelo Flash Wins 2026 CRN Tech Innovator Award for Helping MSPs Transform Cybersecurity Assessments into a Faster Path to Growth

KITCHENER, Ontario — August 11, 2026 — Cavelo, the data security and risk management platform purpose-built for MSPs and MSSPs, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Cavelo Flash a winner in the 2026 CRN Tech Innovator Awards in the MSP Platforms and Tools category.

The recognition highlights a growing shift in how MSPs approach cybersecurity assessments. Once viewed primarily as technical engagements, risk assessments are increasingly becoming business development tools that help providers uncover opportunities, demonstrate expertise earlier in the sales cycle and build long-term customer relationships.

The CRN Tech Innovator Awards recognize the most innovative technologies shaping the future of the IT channel. Selected by CRN's editorial team from hundreds of submissions across 30 technology categories, winning solutions demonstrate exceptional innovation, market differentiation, technological advancement and measurable value for channel partners and customers. These award-winning products stand out for their ability to address real-world business challenges while helping drive success across the technology ecosystem.

Launched in February 2026, Cavelo Flash was designed to eliminate the complexity, cost and delays traditionally associated with cybersecurity assessments. Rather than relying on multiple point tools, lengthy deployments and manual analysis, Flash delivers an agentless assessment that identifies vulnerabilities, sensitive data and configuration risks in minutes, helping MSPs move from discovery to meaningful customer conversations faster.

By simplifying cyber risk discovery, Flash enables service providers to qualify opportunities more effectively, deliver immediate value to prospective customers and create a natural pathway toward continuous cyber exposure management with the broader Cavelo platform.

"For too long, cybersecurity assessments have been treated as complex technical projects instead of strategic business opportunities," said James Mignacca, CEO of Cavelo. "MSPs don't need another tool that generates more alerts. They need a faster way to demonstrate expertise, build trust and create meaningful customer conversations. Flash was built to help providers turn cyber risk into revenue, and we're incredibly proud to see that vision recognized by CRN."

Unlike traditional assessment solutions that often require multiple products or outside services, Flash gives providers a single, streamlined way to identify meaningful risk, communicate business impact and accelerate customer engagement. The platform was built specifically to help emerging and growth-focused MSPs enter the cybersecurity market without the operational overhead that has historically limited adoption.

"Every MSP we speak with is looking for ways to grow security revenue without adding complexity," said Larry Meador, Channel Chief at Cavelo. "Flash changes the economics of cybersecurity assessments. Partners can begin valuable conversations almost immediately, demonstrate measurable customer value and naturally expand those engagements into long-term security services. That's exactly the kind of innovation the channel needs today."

"The 2026 CRN Tech Innovator Awards winners represent the most innovative technologies driving the future of the IT channel," said Jennifer Follett, Vice President, U.S. Content, Executive Editor, CRN, The Channel Company. "These award-winning solutions demonstrate exceptional vision, technological ingenuity and a commitment to solving real-world challenges for partners and customers. We congratulate this year's winners on their innovation, channel leadership and meaningful contributions to the technology ecosystem."
