Announcing Forrester’s Enterprise Email Security Landscape, Q1 2023>
Forrester – Jess Burn
Forrester’s just-published The Enterprise Email Security Landscape, Q1 2023 report provides an overview of 34 players in this market and guidance for security leaders and professionals on how to select and work with email security vendors. Know your environment — and your budget. Look for solutions that offer easy integrations with extended detection and response platforms or managed detection and response providers to ensure that vital telemetry is enriching your security operations center with more information to aid in investigations. Be wary of the machine-learning magic bullet. Most CAPES vendors rely heavily on the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning to stop sophisticated attacks by learning communication and behavioral patterns to spot anomalies. But this capability is limited to factors including the quality of the algorithm training data, cadence of algorithm retraining, and how anomalies detected by the algorithm are combined with traditional alerts. Think of your security analysts. Before you sign on with a vendor, be sure that a few of your security analysts take the interface for a test drive for usability and alignment with their workflows and other detection and response tools.
