CA Tech gets recognition for User Authentication

Gartner has positioned CA Technologies as the leaders of the Magic Quadrant for User Authentication. The Company’s authentication solutions - CA AuthMinder and CA RiskMinder, CA CloudMinder Advanced Authentication - were evaluated for this report.

Mike Denning, Senior Vice-President & General Manager, Security Business, CA Technologies, said, "We are living in a hybrid world when it comes to IT. Very few, if any, organizations today are using 'all clou' or 'all on-premises' solutions, especially when it comes to security. Our ability to provide identity and access management, advanced authentication and data protection solutions delivered on premises or as-a-service is perfectly aligned with this hybrid reality."

Denning further added, "We are proud to be placed in the Leader's Quadrant for user authentication, as well as in three other recent Gartner Magic Quadrant reports, including the Magic Quadrant for Identity and Access Governance; the Magic Quadrant for User Administration and Provisioning; and the Magic Quadrant for Content-Aware Data Loss Prevention. We are working to keep these leader positions as we build the security solutions our customers need, delivered the way they want."

As per the report, Gartner has predicted that, by 2017, more than 50 per cent of enterprises will choose cloud-based services as the delivery option for new or refreshed user authentication
