MES Computing, a brand of The Channel Company, has highlighted Guardare on its 2026 MES Midmarket 100 list.
Clearwater, Florida, July 15, 2026 — Guardare, the AI-powered Exposure Assessment Platform that helps organizations identify, prioritize, and remediate cybersecurity risk, announced today that MES Computing, a brand of The Channel Company, has highlighted Guardare on its 2026 MES Midmarket 100 list.
The annual MES Midmarket 100 recognizes technology vendors with deep knowledge of the unique IT needs of midmarket organizations. These vendors are committed to delivering future-focused products and services that support growth, innovation, and success for their midsize customers.
MES Computing defines midmarket organizations as those with an annual revenue of $50 million to $2 billion and/or 100 to 2,500 total supported users/seats. Vendors were selected for the MES Midmarket 100 for their go-to-market strategy, how they innovate to serve the midmarket better, and the strength of their midmarket product portfolios.
Guardare was selected for its ability to help midmarket organizations address enterprise-level cybersecurity challenges without requiring enterprise-sized security teams. The Guardare platform provides visibility across users, devices, software, identities, cloud environments, and existing security controls to identify misconfigurations, missing protections, control gaps, and connected exposures.
Guardare then prioritizes those findings based on business risk and provides clear, step-by-step remediation guidance. This helps midmarket IT and security teams understand which issues require immediate attention, reduce unnecessary alert noise, and strengthen the security tools they already have in place.
“The Midmarket 100 highlights the technology vendors that genuinely understand—and actively champion—the distinct needs of midsize organizations,” said Samara Lynn, senior editor of MES Computing at The Channel Company. “These companies are true partners, equipping midmarket IT teams to overcome their toughest challenges so they can innovate and accelerate growth. We’re excited to watch how these vendors continue to evolve and strengthen the midmarket ecosystem.”
“Midmarket organizations face many of the same cyber threats as large enterprises but must secure complex environments with smaller teams, limited resources, and tighter budgets. They need solutions that simplify prioritization, maximize existing security investments, and reduce risk without adding headcount or significant cost.,” said Dane Fiori, founder and president of Guardare. “Guardare was built specifically to close that gap by giving IT and security teams a clear understanding of their exposure, showing them what needs to be addressed first, and providing practical guidance to reduce risk. Being named to the MES Midmarket 100 reinforces our commitment to helping midmarket organizations build stronger and more effective cybersecurity programs.”
