Nov. 29, 2012 10:54 AM
CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that it has been named a
“Leader” in every category of a market analysis report on identity
provisioning recently issued by KuppingerCole, a leading analyst firm
focused on identity-centric information security.
In the “KuppingerCole
Leadership Compass” report, CA Technologies was named a leader in
market, product, innovation and overall strength. The report
specifically examined the CA
IdentityMinder™ solution, which helps improve IT operational
efficiency and effectiveness by providing a scalable and configurable
identity management foundation in the context of customers’ unique
business roles and processes.
The report evaluated 22 identity provisioning products in five key areas
and was written by Martin Kuppinger, founder and principal analyst at
KuppingerCole.
CA IdentityMinder was rated a “Strong Positive” in the areas of Security
and Functionality, and it received a “Positive” rating in Functionality,
Integration, Interoperability and Usability.
“CA Technologies is amongst the largest infrastructure software vendors
worldwide and offers a broad portfolio of products in the IAM market
segment, including CA IdentityMinder,” Kuppinger wrote in the report.
“The current version is well integrated and provides the full feature
set to be expected from Identity Provisioning solutions.”
Kuppinger also stated, “Based on the long history of the product and the
market position of CA Technologies, it is no surprise that CA has done a
large number of deployments of CA IdentityMinder. As a consequence,
there is – besides a mature and rich feature set – a number of
additional solutions from CA Services available which add to this
functionality.”
“The KuppingerCole report clearly articulates the value proposition and
comparative strength of both our company and our specific identity
management capabilities across the most critical areas,” said Mike
Denning, general manager, Security, CA Technologies. “We are proud of
this latest industry analyst recognition and the added confidence it
provides our customers who rely on us to protect their business with the
richest, most comprehensive identity and access management portfolio in
the market.”
