Symantec’s endpoint security suites top-ranked
in current offering category
Symantec Corporation (NASDAQ: SYMC), the world’s leading cyber
security company, today announced that it has been positioned as a
Leader in "The Forrester Wave™: Endpoint Security Suites, Q3 2019,"
a new report published by Forrester Research, Inc. Symantec also
received the highest score among all vendors in the threat
prevention criterion.
The Q3 2019 Forrester Wave™ report evaluated 15 select vendors
based on a comprehensive set of 25 evaluation criteria in the
categories of current offering, strategy, and market presence.
Based on these criteria, Symantec was recognized as a Leader.
According to the Forrester report, “Symantec has long been a
leader in the endpoint security space. After the Bluecoat
acquisition, its development of new endpoint security technologies
sped up considerably and addressed many gaps in its portfolio and
strategy when compared with newer entrants in the market.”
Symantec Endpoint Security Suites help provide maximum
protection, prevention, detection and response with operational
simplicity and efficiency. The Q3 Wave report evaluated Symantec’s
Complete Endpoint Defense noting that it has “improved its EDR and
mobile security offerings significantly, in addition to several
enhancements to its data security, asset management, and behavioral
security offerings.”
“We believe that Symantec was top-ranked in the threat
prevention criterion because we lead with the strongest endpoint
protection thanks to years of expertise and constant innovation,”
said Adam Bromwich, SVP & GM, Endpoint Solutions, Symantec. "It
requires leading-edge, field-proven technology to build one of the
most effective endpoint security suites on the market today. That
includes our superior Endpoint Detection and Response capability,
which now helps to detect even the most sneaky targeted attacks
using cloud analytics. We’re continuing to innovate — it’s in our
DNA.”
As the endpoint security market continues to grow, Symantec’s
endpoint defense solution uses simplified management with its
multi-layered suites to fortify all endpoints, offering complete
endpoint protection, delivered with maximum flexibility for the
varying needs of enterprise environments.
