The Internet Service Providers Association UK (ISPA<\/a>) has tonight named the winners of their 19th annual 2017 Internet industry awards, which once again saw Hyperoptic<\/a> being crowned as the ‘Best Superfast Broadband<\/em>‘ ISP and Gigaclear<\/a> securing the new ‘Best Rural Broadband<\/em>‘ award.<\/p>\n

The entrants were all scrutinised by a “panel of industry experts<\/em>,” while broadband ISPs, web hosts and VoIP providers underwent some “rigorous technical testing<\/em>.” The event, which was held at Caf\u00e9 de Paris in London’s West End, also introduced several new categories including Best Rural Broadband<\/strong> (recognising the work so many alternative networks in hard-to-reach areas), Best Wholesale ISP<\/strong> and Executive of the Year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

On the subject of Internet Heroes and Villains, Marcus Hutchins<\/strong> of the @Malwaretechblog picked up the Hero award for finding the WannaCry killswitch and President Erdogan<\/strong> took home the title of Villain for cracking down on online freedom of expression in Turkey.<\/p>\n

Nicholas Lansman, ISPA<\/a> UK Secretary General, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I would like to congratulate all the winners at this year\u2019s ISPA<\/a> Awards. There was strong competition, and we saw some real innovation and commitment to development among the nominations. The Hero and Villain Awards are a bit of fun, but \u2013 as ever \u2013 showcase today\u2019s pressing issues online.<\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, cyber security and the encroachment of government censorship online were two issues voters felt passionately about. Here at ISPA we\u2019re pleased to say that they\u2019re two issues we\u2019ve been addressing with our members for a long time, and will, of course, continue to do so.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s worth pointing out that Hyperoptic<\/a> has now won the Best Superfast Broadband award so many times that we’ve pretty much lost count and they certainly deserve it, although there are a lot of small innovative ISPs around and next year it might be nice to see somebody else scooping up the gong. At least part of the problem here may be that some of the smaller ISPs don’t put themselves forward and so aren’t even considered (we’ll try to nudge a few more to apply next year).<\/p>\n

Speaking of Hyperoptic<\/a>, the ISP’s Managing Director, Dana Tobak, also went home with the Executive of the Year<\/strong> award and she definitely deserved that too. Dana is one of the country’s first real pioneers in “full fibre<\/em>” broadband and she pushed it forward at a time when so many others were saying it wasn’t economically viable to roll-out.<\/p>\n
