Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Specialist security player VeriSign is one of the Leaders in this first Forrester Wave on managed security services (MSS). A solid current offering and visionary strategy place VeriSign in the Leader category, ahead of the competition. VeriSign benefits from its PKI and authentication expertise and from its intelligent Internet infrastructure experience. The firm's current offering enjoys strengths in many areas, including implementation, visibility, portal strategy, and intelligence through the iDefense Security Intelligence offering. While VeriSign needs to expand its international foothold, its market strategy focuses on investment in key future security areas, such as threat detection and analysis, visualization, and extending services to the application layer. This, united with an aggressive go-to-market strategy tailored to suit different geographic regions, makes VeriSign a player in the MSS space with a bright future.
