For the second consecutive year, the organization has been declared a Leader in the latest Magic Quadrant for Application Security Testing.
According to Gartner, the Magic Quadrant reports are based on qualitative data analysis techniques to reveal market trends, including direction, maturity, and key players, and pricing vendors on their "ability to execute and completeness of vision."
The vendor's market responsiveness, financial viability, customer base, and distribution channels are all covered in this Gartner measurement. The Completeness of Vision rating reflects the vendor's innovation, and whether the vendor adheres to market trends.
These market trends include a broadening of testing requirements, a steady rate of growth, and increased competitive complexity. This evaluation is the key determinant of a vendor's position in the Magic Quadrant. These include leaders, challengers, visionaries, and niche players.
Vendors in the Leaders quadrant have the most aggregate scores for their completeness of vision and ability to execute. A vendor in the leaders quadrant has the market share, credibility, and marketing skills to help new technologies gain acceptance.
According to a research published by Dale Gardner, Mark Horvath, and Dionisio Zumerle on April 18, 2022, "Gartner expects worldwide AST end-user spending to exceed $3.1 billion in 2022. These increases, as well as a growing awareness of the risks associated with the software, remain market drivers. Several high-profile software supply chain breaches highlighted these concerns, leading regulatory initiatives that will continue to push overall application security standards, at least in the United States."
