CA gets named as a Leader for User Authentication by Gartner

As per a recent report by Gartner, CA Technologies has announced that it has been positioned in the Leaders quadrant of the Magic Quadrant for User Authentication for the third straight time. The company’s on-premise strong authentication solutions such as CA AuthMinder, CA RiskMinder and CA CloudMinder Advanced Authentication were evaluated for this report.
 
Vic Mankotia, Vice-President, Solution Strategy, APJ at CA Technologies, said, “As the IT landscape continues to evolve with the rise of cloud computing, mobile computing and other disruptive technologies, the flexibility and convenience of a risk-based authentication solution is increasingly critical to organizations that want a strong security posture with minimal impact on the user. CA Technologies Advanced Authentication solutions deliver on that requirement, providing the broad, cross-platform functionality needed to safely do business across an expanding, borderless enterprise.”
