THE PYRAMIDTM for Workspace Security is presented by Lead Advisor Rob Smith.
Anyone who knows IT knows that the Identity, Endpoint and Network Security teams typically don't like to talk to each other. This leads to greater security threats as they operate in their own silos. Working together they now have the possibility to find new threats and provide better security by doing cross-analysis of all users and devices no matter where they are.
In a market that features both major and minor Network and Endpoint security vendors, anything is possible from one day to the next due to the rapid product evolution to try to build the single best unified system to protect everything. This is why Workspace Security was chosen as one of our first Pyramids.
The Performance Index represents presence in the market not just from a sales and growth perspective but also thought leadership and mindshare. It also represents completeness of combined network and endpoint features either directly or through tightly integrated partners.
The Strategic Index represents vendors who understand that the future of security is not only a single pane of glass management, but also advanced threat prevention and detection that can use identity, network and enpoint data together to provide the best security possible today.
All the products either directly include SASE (Security Access Service Edge) functionality or have tightly integrated partners who do so. The Difference Maker for this market (shown with the green striped triangles) represents those vendors that have the strogest native SASE functionality."
