Forcepoint recognized as a Leader in IDC MarketScape for Worldwide Data Loss Prevention 2025
Forcepoint has been recognized as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape for Worldwide Data Loss Prevention (DLP) 2025 Vendor Assessment. This acknowledgment reflects the company's capabilities in AI-Mesh-powered classification, risk adaptive protection, and unified management.
Forcepoint's Data Security Everywhere platform aims to deliver comprehensive security across various data channels including endpoints, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), and email. In a climate where data is increasingly generated and utilized through hybrid environments and Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, securing sensitive information is more critical than before. The platform includes functionality for full-lifecycle protection and smart automation, which helps in minimizing false positives and improving response times.
Naveen Palavalli, Chief Product and Marketing Officer of Forcepoint, emphasized that effective data protection is fundamental in the digital economy, stating, “Data security isn’t optional—it’s the bedrock of trust in today’s digital economy. As AI-powered applications accelerate data proliferation and consumption, the need for scalable, adaptive data security is urgent.” He believes the IDC MarketScape recognition supports Forcepoint's objective in offering advanced data security solutions.
According to Jennifer Glenn, Research Director for IDC’s Security and Trust Group, the growth of Generative AI (GenAI) and hybrid work environments make DLP essential for organizations. She noted that Forcepoint's DLP offerings encompass a wide array of features that address these evolving security requirements.
During the upcoming Runtime Security Agent (RSA) Conference scheduled for April 28 to May 1, Forcepoint will showcase its Data Security Everywhere portfolio, which integrates DLP, Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), and Data Detection and Response (DDR). Interested organizations can schedule meetings for demonstrations related to the DLP solution.
