Group-IB, a leading creator of predictive cybersecurity technologies to investigate, prevent, and fight digital crime, today announced it has won three Red Dot Award: Brands & Communication Design 2026 titles, covering its corporate visual identity, its Masked Actors digital campaign, and its High-Tech Crime Trends Report.
Group-IB’s corporate visual identity took top honours in the Corporate Design & Identity category, built to work across the company’s Digital Crime Resistance Centers, solutions, and research output and to give Group-IB a consistent design language in every market it operates in, from Singapore to the Middle East and Africa, Europe, and Latin America.
The Masked Actors digital campaign won in the Advertising category, built around Group-IB’s Masked Actors podcast, in which cybersecurity practitioners and threat researchers speak about real cases and adversary behaviour, with a visual treatment that translates that adversary-centric research into a digital campaign designed to reach security decision-makers directly.
Group-IB’s High-Tech Crime Trends Report, produced in both digital and print formats, won in the Annual Reports category, drawing on Group-IB’s threat intelligence and incident response casework to document how cybercriminal groups operate and where they are heading next, with an award that recognises the design work that makes that intelligence accessible to a non-technical audience as well as to analysts.
“This recognition means a great deal to us, as it validates the dedication and craftsmanship behind Group-IB’s visual identity. Good design is central to how we communicate about cybersecurity, helping professionals and the public quickly understand the threats we describe and the actions needed to address them. None of this would be possible without our talented team. Together, we create visual communications that are clear and meaningful. We don’t just talk about technology; we reveal what stands behind it: the data, the connections, how they lead to real threat actors, and how it all turns into the results that stop the threat. From our corporate design identity and the Masked Actors campaign to the High-Tech Crime Trends report, our design transforms complex threats into visually clear, compelling stories.”
