BLUE BELL, Pa., April 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Unisys Corporation
(NYSE: UIS) today announced that HfS Research has named the
company to the "Winner's Circle" in its report evaluating managed
security services providers.
The HfS Blueprint Report: Managed Security Services 2017
provides a comparative analysis of innovation and execution
capabilities among 13 major service providers. Those named to the
Winners Circle are defined as showing competitive differentiation
in "realizing the as-a-service economy of business
outcome-oriented, on-demand talent and technology services."
Winner's Circle providers also are characterized as having
collaborative relationships with clients, an ability to articulate
vision and a new way of thinking.
According to the report, Unisys provides a "strong business-led
practice with a distinct perspective on how to tie security into
future enterprise growth." The report notes specific strengths
regarding the company's approach to security and client services,
including:
- Mission and purpose beyond asset protection: Unisys
views security as a business priority, not only a technical one,
and looks beyond perimeter-based security offerings.
- Talent acquisition: As a result of this mission
focus, Unisys attracts people who look beyond the technical
aspects of security and can see a broader world view.
- Vertical industry focus: Unisys continues to develop
strong industry-specific security offerings across verticals such
as financial services and the public sector.
- Innovation and advanced security analytics: Unisys
invests heavily in security analytics tools to detect and mitigate
both new and existing threats before they can be damaging to a
client. It also offers Unisys Stealth®
micro-segmentation software, which creates segments within an
organization where only authorized users can access information,
while others cannot even see that those segments exist.
"Unisys' vision for security as a business strength in a
borderless world helps the company differentiate at a thought
leadership level," said Christine Ferrusi
Ross, research vice president, security and blockchain, HfS
Research. "Its investments in industry expertise further bolster
that business perspective, which HfS believes is needed as security
becomes intertwined with all processes in order to improve the
customer's experience."
"We have a longstanding commitment to excellence in managed
security services (MSS)," said Eric
Hutto, senior vice president and president, Enterprise
Solutions, at Unisys. "This 'Winners Circle' recognition highlights
our ability to deliver MSS in a highly efficient and effective
fashion for both governments and enterprises, in addition to
providing proven security consulting, products, solutions, and
services."
