You can use container security tools to secure critical applications, speed development efforts, and tamperproof your containers. But to access these benefits, you’ll first have to select from a diverse set of vendors — vendors that vary by size, functionality, geography, and vertical market focus. Security pros should use Forrester’s Now Tech report to understand the value they can expect from a container security provider and select vendors based on size and functionality.

In February 2018, Accenture Interactive commissioned Forrester Consulting to evaluate the current and future role of the CMO in building and delivering experiences and the need for organizationwide collaboration. In July 2018, Forrester conducted 10 interviews and an online survey with 250 senior-level marketing decision makers from a range of industries to explore this topic.

As businesses continue to adopt both infrastructure-as-a-service (iaaS) and platform -as-a-service (PaaS) cloud platforms, S&r pros struggle to protect their organization’s valuable data while minimizing the threat surface of cloud and hybrid cloud workloads. Cloud workload security (CWS) solutions provide automated and layered controls to secure configurations, network, applications, and storage of hybrid cloud hypervisors and workloads. this report provides S&r pros with an overview of the CWS vendor landscape, critical selection criteria, and key vendor differentiation.

Before slowing down development and causing customers to revolt, security and risk pros should read this report to understand the current state of application security and how emerging techniques support the speed your business needs.

Too often, security and risk (S&R) leaders create data policies without a clear understanding of feasibility and purpose within their business because they themselves are in the dark about their data — from what data they have to where it resides. As a result, many policies are ineffective and can even hinder business processes. In today’s evolving data economy, data identity is the missing link that S&R leaders must define to create actionable policy. This report was designed to help S&R leaders develop effective policies using their Data Security And Control Framework as a guideline.

The objective of this report is to provide an understanding into how companies are approaching the challenges of evolving database ecosystems though cloud and big data initiatives. And to understand what steps organizations are taking to ensure greater security and compliance with their databases.

This paper is the result of a Forrester survey that sought to understand the roles of LoB practitioners and SOCs in securing IoT environments.

From the report, “Whether accidental or malicious, insider threat incidents can result in financial fraud, privacy abuses, intellectual property theft, or damage to infrastructure. it’s difficult for security pros to detect this suspicious activity because insiders need to have privileged access to data in order to do their jobs. Since insiders are people and, therefore, entitled to privacy and due process, security pros must handle these incidents with greater care than external threats. this report describes how to build an insider threat program.”

This report was based on 10 in-depth interviews and an additional online survey with 545 senior executives worldwide across multiple industries and geographies. The survey was fielded through July and August 2016. The scope of the research covers perceptions of and experiences with cyber and security risk.
