        <p>Internet Security Research Group and its partners are proud to present the Radiant Award for Advancing Internet Security, a recognition program for individuals whose contributions make the Internet more secure and privacy-respecting.</p>

        <p>Designed to shed light on efforts which often go unrecognized, Radiant Award recipients are thanked publicly for their work and provided a platform to express their motivations, inspiration, challenges, and plans.</p>

        <p>ISRG has brought together partners from across the Internet to provide honorees with a $10,000 gift. Intended to energize our selected individuals in whatever manner suits them, the gift is unstipulated.</p>
