Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Telecommunications giant Verizon Business' managed security offering is a promising Contender in the first Forrester Wave on managed security services (MSS). Verizon offers strong current capabilities in the security operations center (SOC), along with well-respected threat intelligence, as well as access and identity services. While Verizon provides solid "in the cloud" (ITC) offerings, it loses ground on its strategic direction, which it does not articulate as clearly as other vendors assessed. Verizon recently bolstered its security expertise and European presence with the acquisition of Cybertrust, making it a vendor to watch in the MSS space. As it aligns its strategy with its newly acquired subsidiary, backed by an already strong set of MSS services, Verizon Business could easily become a Strong Performer or Leader in this space.
