Absolute Software, a worldwide leader specialising in cyber resilience solutions, has been recognised as a prominent provider of Security Service Edge (SSE) solutions by the authoritative Forrester report, entitled "The Security Service Edge (SSE) Solutions Landscape, Q4 2023". The report aims to deliver comprehensive insights to organisations about the advantages of SSE, and highlights reputable vendors who address the definitive "core" use cases behind enterprise SSE adoption. These primarily encompass Zero Trust access, cloud access security and remote workforce security.
The Forrester report advises: "You can use security service edge (SSE) solutions to provide Zero Trust access to enterprise applications, secure the remote workforce, and protect enterprise data. However, to achieve these benefits, you must choose from a varied set of vendors that differ in size, type of offering, geography, and use case differentiation. This report should be utilised by security and risk professionals to grasp the value they can expect from an SSE vendor, understand how vendors differ, and investigate options based on size and market focus."
