Abstract
This Government Insights report profiles the products, services, activities, and market shares of the worldwide top 10 IT security software vendors in the government market. Four of the companies are pure-play security vendors and the other six are active in a wide variety of other information technology markets as well. Each vendor profile provides a general overview and description of the company and then focuses on its government-specific and security-specific offerings and activities, with particular emphasis on the U.S. federal government.
"Government IT security budgets may be growing but the threats from hackers, malware, bots, phishing, and other attacks are growing even faster and more sophisticated. On the other hand, government IT security managers have an abundance of choices among security solutions and vendors to enable them to defend against those threats," said Mark Kagan, research manager at Government Insights. "They need good information to make informed choices that will best protect and serve their organizations. This report, which takes as its starting point IDC' s worldwide top 10 IT software security vendors, provides a baseline for making informed decisions in the crucial area of security."
