Kaspersky, having scored highly in both strategic vision and functionality, was named a Top Player – highlighting the company as a market leader in the field – ranked highly for both breadth and depth of functionality, as well as for “possessing a solid vision for the future.”
Kaspersky products were praised for their “low footprint, high-performance technologies” that guard system-critical processes and prevent leaks when using machine learning-based behavior detection technology and memory protection mechanisms.
The report also highlighted the ease of Kaspersky solutions’ ability to support a wide range of operating systems, as well as virtual environments, making it easier for organizations with heterogenous infrastructures to protect their assets in a managed way. The company’s technologies were also recognized for convenience of use.
“We combine multi-layered, next-generation threat protection with additional proactive technologies to ensure that all endpoints remain secure, across a company’s entire infrastructure.
