IDC recognized Thales for its ability to offer a range of
products spanning the digital and physical worlds using three
business units to address workforce, B2C, and B2G opportunities. In
addition, the IDC MarketScape highlighted Thales’ capacity to
deliver unique capabilities to large enterprises as well as its
ability to support every form of authentication technology
available in the market.
Thales’ SafeNet Trusted Access simplifies user access to cloud
services, streamlines authentication and access management and
helps eliminate password hassles for enterprises and end-users.
"Helping restore order from chaos, multifactor identity
solutions are available in the form of the simple to the extremely
complex," said Jay Bretzmann, program director, Cybersecurity
research, IDC. "The challenge users face is buying enough
capability now without eliminating a route to a truly passwordless
future complementing a zero trust networking environment. Thales is
a good choice when your organization needs to support a broad range
of authentication devices including advanced biometrics and
increasingly sophisticated AI-driven and contextual user
insights.”
“With new work habits and increased needs to address multiple
authentication journeys for all types of users, large enterprises
are finally realising that one-size fit all options to
authentication are coming short. By combining various modern user
authentication options as part of its comprehensive access
management offer, Thales is making it easier for organisations to
expand authentication coverage tailored to the need,” said
Francois Lasnier, Vice President of Access Management Solutions at
Thales. “It’s hugely rewarding to be recognised by IDC as a
leader in advanced authentication for identity security. This
recognition exemplifies Thales’ strong offering within the market
and our continued commitment to meeting our customers’ ever more
complex access security needs.”
Thales was positioned in the Leaders category based on the broad
range of products spanning the physical and digital space, across
its Digital Identity and Security Division. Spanning the business
units Cloud Protection, Licensing and Banking and Payment
Services.
