AppGate Named a Strong Performer in Risk-Based Authentication Report by Independent Research Firm

MIAMI, May 28, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- AppGate, the secure access company, today announced that Forrester Research, a leading global research and advisory firm, has named the company as a Strong Performer in its report "The Forrester Wave(TM): Risk-Based Authentication, Q2, 2020."

In AppGate's vendor profile in the report, it states: "The strongest feature of the solution is Risk Orchestrator, which gives admins true freedom in defining custom data management, risk scoring and authentication workflows. Administrative and business user management are robust, and statistical decisioning is more exposed to end-user admins than in competitive offerings. Authentication policies are granular, and reporting and dashboards are visually pleasing and customizable."

AppGate received the highest possible scores in the following criteria: business and admin user management, innovation roadmap, proof-of-concept and demo, solution delivery, clickstream plans, and verticals.

"Globally, digital fraud costs more than $4.2 trillion every year - lowering the risk is essential for protecting businesses and their consumers," said Michael Lopez, General Manager of AppGate's anti-fraud business. "A risk-based, layered approach is the only way to effectively achieve it. AppGate believes systems must communicate with each other seamlessly to provide robust, real-time protection without degrading the admin or user experience."

Benefits of AppGate's RBA platform include:

    --  No trade-off between user experience and security
    --  Simplify fraud management through unified console
    --  Minimize cost by reducing number of vendors
    --  Orchestrate flows for agile protection
    --  Strong rules and intelligent machine learning to enable better insights
