IDG have found that IT security professionals are increasingly adopting appliance-based solutions as a method of protecting the enterprise. One of the areas with little evidence of this is in the identity space - possibly partly to do with so many SSO systems based on or using the same OEM code.
IDG says, "There are few pure-play appliance offerings in the identity and access management (IAM) market space. Imprivata is one of the exceptions."
Within the PDF, IDC profiles international customer experiences with the Imprivata OneSign appliance, as presented by the customers at an Imprivata customer forum. More generally, IDC research shows the following:
- Customers are looking for security-based solutions for regulatory and internal policy compliance.
- If given a choice, customers prefer an integrated approach as opposed to implementing a series of point products.
- There is a movement away from software and toward appliances in the security space.
