What AI assistants actually recommend when buyers ask about ai tools for cybersecurity professionals — measured on a rolling 4-week window across 4 engines, published as open data.
Updated 2026-09-18 · 28 sampled answers · rolling 4-week window · methodology
Rankings are measured from sampled AI answers — never editorial, never paid. Orbator builds AI-visibility tooling; when Orbator itself appears in any category, it is measured by the same rules as everyone else.
Measured by Orbatormethodology owner Henrik Tellewindow ends Sep 18, 2026
Sample: 28 AI answers · Window: Aug 21, 2026 – Sep 18, 2026 (4-week rolling) · trend vs prior 4 weeks (84 answers)
Samples by engine: GEMINI 7 (last run Sep 3, 2026) · CHATGPT 7 (last run Sep 3, 2026) · CLAUDE 7 (last run Sep 4, 2026) · PERPLEXITY 7 (last run Sep 3, 2026) · GROK 0 (last run Aug 13, 2026 — stalest)
How these numbers are made: sampling design · prompt provenance · what counts as a mention · what we cannot see

Across 28 sampled AI answers from 4 engines, Microsoft is recommended most often — appearing in 53.6% of recommendations, followed by CrowdStrike Falcon (21.4%) and CrowdStrike (21.4%).
This is a measurement of share of voice across 4 AI engines — not an editorial pick. See the full ranking below.
Orbator asked Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity buyer questions about ai tools for cybersecurity professionals and sampled 28 answers between Aug 21, 2026 and Sep 18, 2026. Recommendation share counts the answers that recommended or listed a product, so a passing mention or a warning adds nothing to it. A category publishes once it holds at least 20 independently sampled answers in the window. Read the full methodology or download this ranking as CSV.

Reading the numbers: Share is a point estimate on 28 sampled answers, so each row also shows its 95% CI — the Wilson score interval around that share. When two products' intervals overlap, the gap between them isn't statistically meaningful at this sample size. First pick is the share of a product's recommending answers where it was named first, which separates “always mentioned” from “usually the top recommendation”. Full methodology.
