Gartner hails Blue Coat a secure web gateway leader once again

Enterprise security firm Blue Coat has been positioned by Gartner as a ‘leader’ in the Magic Quadrant for Secure Web Gateways for the eight consecutive year.

Gartner evaluated vendors on their ability to execute and completeness of vision of their products in the SWG market. Blue Coat has, once again, been recognised for its market leadership in both vision and execution.

Blue Coat’s Secure Web Gateway provides real-time intelligence and policy-driven security capabilities. Broad and flexible deployment options give customers the ability to consistently apply security policy and techniques for users worldwide.

Security is a big topic on IT Channel Expert. We recently heard from GfK’s Tom Shadbolt about why vendors need to stop seeing security as an expensive add-on, warning that they must be able to seamlessly integrate their solutions into existing security infrastructure.

Throughout April we also focused on everything to do with business security. You can check out our range of advice columns, white papers and reports in our business security roundup.
