ISLANDIA, N.Y., Feb. 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- CA Technologies (CA:
NASDAQ) today announced that it has been positioned by Gartner,
Inc. in the Leaders quadrant of the report, Magic Quadrant for User
Authentication*.
According to the report by Gartner Research Vice President Ant
Allan, "We estimate the overall growth in the market by customers
to be approximately 30 percent year-over-year. Because of the shift
toward lower-cost authentication solutions, we estimate the overall
growth by revenue to be approximately only 20 percent." He writes
that, "By 2017, more than 50 percent of enterprises will choose
cloud-based services as the delivery option for new or refreshed
user authentication implementations, up from less than 10 percent
today."
"Considering Gartner's user authentication market growth
estimate, and the forecast that half of the implementations will be
cloud services, we are confident we're in a solid position for
success in this sector. With more than 14,000 organizations
leveraging our authentication solutions and more than 85 million
identities protected by our cloud-based authentication services we
should be on the short-list for anyone considering a cloud
authentication solution," said Mike
Denning, general manager, Security business at CA
Technologies. "Our team has worked hard to deliver the solutions
customers need to address their identity and access management
challenges, and we are proud to have been positioned in four
Leaders quadrants over the past year."
