McAfee, Inc., today announced that research firm Gartner, Inc. has placed the company in the leaders quadrant in its “Magic Quadrant for Content-Aware Data Loss Prevention,” as published on June 2, 2010.
According to Gartner, vendors who appear in the leader’s quadrant “have demonstrated good understanding of client needs and offer comprehensive capabilities in all three functional areas — network, discovery and endpoint — directly or through well-established partnerships and tight integration. They offer aggressive road maps, and they will need to execute on those road maps, fully incorporate enhanced features currently in development and address evolving market needs to remain in the Leaders quadrant.”
