- BeyondTrust identified as Top-ranked Vendor in the Strategy category (tied)
- BeyondTrust receives highest scores possible in both Vision and Roadmap criteria
ATLANTA, Oct. 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BeyondTrust, the worldwide leader in intelligent identity and access security, today announced it has been named a Leader in The Forrester WaveTM: Privileged Identity Management, Q4 2023. According to the Forrester Wave, “BeyondTrust suits a range of customers looking for a field-proven PIM solution that covers all the bases.” The report also noted that “reference customers were highly satisfied with BeyondTrust’s customer service, citing responsiveness and frequency of communications/updates.” The report also noted BeyondTrust’s recently introduced Identity Security Insights that will enable it to deliver on the company’s strategy to pair PIM with identity threat detection and response.
The Forrester Wave is an evaluation of vendors in the software, hardware, or services markets, driven by the analysis of data collected from the marketplace and the experience of participating analysts. BeyondTrust was among the 13 most significant Privileged Identity Management vendors that Forrester invited to participate in its Q4 2023 Forrester Wave evaluation.
This news comes on the heels of Gartner naming BeyondTrust a Leader in the 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Privileged Access Management.
According to the Forrester Wave, “privileged identity management is essential to advanced identity defenses. At a time when organizations are facing unrelenting identity-based attacks and control of high-value systems and data is more important than ever, PIM customers are challenged with managing privileged identities across a complex and changing IT environment composed of diverse systems, applications, and platforms. The PIM market continues to address the highly dynamic nature of the cloud-first enterprise, and it’s evolving to satisfy unique requirements for other types of critical infrastructure deployments such as OT environments.”
Twenty-four evaluation criteria for the Forrester Wave are grouped into three high-level categories: Current Offering, Strategy, and Market Presence. BeyondTrust received the highest scores possible in 11 criteria, including:
- Least privilege access
- Credential and secrets management
- Secure remote access
- Threat detection and response
- Audit and reporting capabilities
- Resiliency and performance
- Scalability
