10 Most Promising Enterprise Security Service Providers - 2019

Threat detection investment, security aligning to business goals and passwordless authentication are on top of the priority list and it’s due to complex critical use case scenarios that have led to it. With IT strategies closely aligned to business goals, the ability for security and risk management (SRM) leaders to effectively present security matters to key business decision makers gains importance. The current shift in security investments from threat prevention to threat detection requires an investment in security operations centres (SOCs) as the complexity and frequency of security alerts grow. According to Gartner, by 2022, 50 percent of all SOCs will transform into modern SOCs with integrated incident response, threat intelligence and threathunting capabilities — up from less than 10 percent in 2015.

Analytics has become a prominent part of most organizations’ technology infrastructure. Advances in predictive analytics and AI mean that organizations are more capable than ever before at diagnosing and understanding their security in real-time. In addition to detecting external threats, AI and machine learning, will continue to play an important role in helping applications to protect themselves. Even though the value of the information we store online continuously grows larger, the tools we use to keep that data safe remain woefully obsolete. Passwords are useful for verification and identification purposes, but they are also notoriously poor tools when it comes to guaranteeing data security. More recently biometric verification, 2-factor authentication, and other methods have started replacing passwords.

For one, Identity-as-a-service (IDaaS) are becoming increasingly popular and removing the need for passwords. Fast Identity Online (FIDO), which uses biometric or vocal recognition, is becoming more widely accepted and presents a more secure alternative to passwords. Even technology like blockchain offers a significant upgrade in verifying and authenticating users thanks to robust, transparent protocols that remove the need for obsolete and unsafe passwords. A lot has changed and is due for change. We understand that and therefore we bring to you a list of ‘10 Most Promising Enterprise Security Service Providers 2019’. We hope this list of service providers enable an exceptional and exclusive security setup that can help you worry less about your data and focus more on the core competency.
