New IDC MarketScape Evaluates Security Services Providers in Canada

TORONTO, ON., March 26, 2018 - International Data Corporation (IDC) Canada today announced the publication of a new report, IDC MarketScape: Canadian Security Services Providers, 2018 Vendor Assessment (IDC# CA43005218), which compares 17 security services providers with operations and customers in Canada, using the IDC MarketScape model.

This process included interviewing all of the providers and one or more customers from each (if made available) on managed and professional security services.

The 17 vendors evaluated in this IDC MarketScape are: Bell Canada, CGI, Deloitte, Difenda, eSentire, GoSecure, Herjavec Group, Hitachi Systems Security, IBM Canada, ISA, Optiv, Scalar Decisions, Secure Sense, Secureworks, TCS Canada, TELUS and Trustwave.

"Strong revenue growth in security services is increasing competition among Canadian players as value added resellers and system integrators double down on security as their traditional markets slow," said IDC Canada's Kevin Lonergan, senior analyst and lead for the Canadian Security Market Dynamics research program. "Still, digital transformation, cloud, and mobility are expanding organizations' attack surfaces to an evolving threat landscape, creating ample opportunities and Greenfield growth for all."

In this IDC MarketScape, IDC Canada identified eight Leaders, seven Major Players, and two Contenders in the Canadian security services market. The research revealed that the vendors positioned as Leaders provide a complete range of services that can meet the needs of the smallest business and the largest enterprise. However, not all providers' solutions are necessarily the best fit for all organizations as pricing, support levels, and other variables are valued differently depending on need. For example, budget is the top roadblock to improving security for Canadian organizations, and finding a security provider that can offer appropriately priced solution can be as or even more important than breadth of service for some.
