SureCloud named IRM solutions Sample Vendor by Gartner

In Gartner’s research report published on the 6th May 2019, called ‘Beyond GDPR: Five Technologies to Borrow From Security to Operationalize Privacy’ SureCloud is included as an Integrated Risk Management Sample Vendor.

The report states: 

“As a driver behind gap assessments and subsequent remediation workflows, IRM solutions provide a full overview of where additional capabilities are needed. IRM also provides the continuous assessment of risk and the accompanying increase of the privacy management program’s maturity.”

Bart Willemsen, a VP Analyst and Zaira Pirzada, a Principal Analyst at Gartner are the authors of the report. They say, “In preparing for various privacy regulations, security and risk management leaders can find a set of balanced controls for privacy and security in the implementation of five key technologies. IRM, CASB, DCAP, DLP and file analysis all help to control personal data and support compliance.”

The report goes to recommend that “to treat technology, information and resilience risk, risk management leaders looking to operationalize the privacy management program should prioritize privacy risk treatment by using integrated risk management (IRM) or similar approaches, and compare the capabilities needed with the available vendor offerings.”

This is the second time Gartner has mentioned SureCloud as an IRM solutions Sample Vendor. In April 2018 SureCloud was included in ‘Competitive Landscape: Integrated Risk Management Landscape Solutions’ by Elizabeth Kim and John A. Wheeler.
