  2. Gartner ranks SafeNet in the Leader’s QuadrantAGAIN! • Considered the most visionary • Appear repeatedly in the leaders quadrant • The most highly ranked auth service vendor • Recognized for our leadership and strong market presence • Cited as having one of the strongest positions in the authentication market • The competitor others need to beat!

  3. Gartner’s View on the Authentication Market

  4. What’s Changed Since Last Year? • Leaders quadrant is a lot more crowded • RSA received a really good ranking Why? • Gartner changed the weight on their positioning metrics compared to last year and this resulted in the entry of more vendors into the top spot • RSA was heavily penalized last year for the breach of their systems. This year Gartner gave them points for recovering from that and also recognized their market share. • Nevertheless, Gartner cited numerous cautions against RSA which reflect that they have many weaknesses

  5. Beating RSA – Competitive Points • If I’m asked why RSA got such a good position, what do I say? • Keep it simple! • The reason is for RSA’s position is that the company was heavily penalized last year for the breach of their systems. This year Gartner gave them points for recovering from that and also recognized the fact that they have the largest market share. • But don’t forget to note that Gartner cited numerous cautions against RSA which reflect that they have many weaknesses: • RSA has no cloud-based service • RSA Authentication Manager has no native identity federation support • RSA Authentication Manager lacks reporting capabilities • RSA’s offering is siloed: customers need to purchase different platforms for authentication, risk-based auth and auth for cloud applications

  6.

  9. Talking Points Strengths “The vendor’s pricing for scenarios #1, #2 and #3 was in the lowest quartile” • Talking Points: • Our customers get value for money and are able to achieve an optimal balance between cost and risk mitigation • What are the pricing scenarios that Gartner evaluated? • Scenario #1: Enterprise scenario with 3,000 users doing employee access • Scenario #2: Enterprise scenario: 50 users who need privileged access • Scenario #3: Healthcare use case with 1,000 external users (partner access)

  10. Talking Points – Why did our position slide? • Gartner changed the weight on their positioning metrics compared to last year and this effected our overall position. • Had we been positioned based on last year’s weighting criteria, our position on the quadrant would have improved.
