Data protection provider named market leader

Internet and data protection firm Websense has been named as a global leader in the integrated web, messaging and data protection technology market, following extensive analysis by Forrester Research.

In a report on the market, Forrester identified Websense as one of two vendors which lead the data loss prevention (DLP) market because of their strong strategy, integration, and product functionality.

The analysts wrote: "Content security front runner, Websense, sits atop the DLP market thanks to its balance of first-class product capabilities and solid strategy.

"Websense has bold, compelling plans to significantly expand upon its current capabilities as a leading content security vendor."

Leo Cole, vice president of marketing for Websense, explained that DLP has become an integral part of enterprises' security strategies and wider information management programmes.

According to the company, the security risks facing enterprises are constantly growing. It estimates that 90 per cent of businesses were attacked by hackers last year, and that one in three corporations has spyware on their networks.
