Enterprise SBC
Enterprise session border controllers (E-SBCs) are situated at the edge of the enterprise network and provide secure voice and video connectivity to Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) trunking providers, users in remote branch offices, home workers/remote workers, and unified communications as a service (UCaaS) providers. The name 'session border controller' is derived from the following: Session, from Session Initiation Protocol, refers to a real-time communication connection between endpoints or users. This is typically a voice and/or video call. Border refers to the interface between networks that do not have full trust of each other. Controller refers to the ability of the E-SBC to control (allow, deny, transform, end) each session that traverses the border. The 'E' in E-SBC stands for 'enterprise.' It is intended to differentiate enterprise-focused SBCs from those aimed at carriers.

Integrated Infrastructure Systems Cloud Management Platforms
Many IT infrastructure and operations leaders want to make their infrastructure services more agile and accessible via self-service. At the same time, they want a simplified, less complex implementation experience for hardware and software. As a result, I&O leaders often acquire infrastructure-centric CMPs with integrated infrastructure systems. IISs offer pre-integrated compute, storage and networking in combination with management software that typically includes IIS configuration management and monitoring. This same pattern extends to hyperconverged integrated systems (HCISs), which have a scale-out design based on commodity components to both reduce the initial acquisition price and enable pay-as-you-grow pricing, but may not offer networking capabilities in the solution.

Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems
The network intrusion detection and prevention system (IDPS) appliance market is composed of stand-alone physical and virtual appliances that inspect defined network traffic either on-premises or in the cloud. They are often located in the network to inspect traffic that has passed through perimeter security devices, such as firewalls, secure Web gateways and secure email gateways. IDPS devices are deployed in-line and perform full-stream reassembly of network traffic. They provide detection via several methods — for example, signatures, protocol anomaly detection, behavioral monitoring or heuristics, advanced threat defense (ATD) integration, and threat intelligence (TI). When deployed in-line, IDPSs can also use various techniques to detect and block attacks that are identified with high confidence; this is one of the primary benefits of this technology. Next-generation IDPSs have evolved in response to advanced targeted threats that can evade first-generation IDPSs.

Mobile Marketing Platforms
Gartner defines mobile marketing platforms (MMPs) as software solutions that help organizations create, activate, execute, analyze and optimize mobile marketing campaigns and experiences. The platforms target audiences on their mobile device through multiple message types such as SMS/text, push notifications, messaging apps and in-app messages. These platforms enable marketers to engage customers and prospects through a range of mobile-specific tactics — spanning mobile websites, mobile applications, smart device engagement, messaging (such as SMS and native applications), push notifications (such as on mobile apps and off websites), location-triggered interactions and mobile wallet cards. Mobile tactics are particularly suited to, for example, providing time-sensitive notifications to audiences, whether that’s in response to a live event, location-specific moment or a fulfillment update. MMPs also help measure and optimize the effectiveness of mobile strategy. MMPs can operate as stand-alone solutions within a marketing organization’s tech stack, or operate alongside other marketing technology. These technologies can include a set of capabilities within a multichannel marketing hub (MMH), marketing automation platform (MAP), customer data platform (CDP) or other marketing automation applications. Stand-alone MMPs are a more specialized solution, often used in conjunction with an MMH, email platform or B2B MAP.

Network Access Control
Gartner defines network access control (NAC) as technologies that enable organizations to implement policies for controlling access to corporate infrastructure by both user-oriented devices and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Policies may be based on authentication, endpoint configuration (posture) or users' role/identity. NAC can also implement postconnect policies based on integration with other security products. For example, NAC could enforce a policy to contain the endpoint based on an alert from a SIEM. An organization should evaluate the following capabilities: • Device visibility/profiling • Access control • Security posture check • Guest management • Bidirectional integration with other security products.

Security Service Edge
Gartner defines security service edge (SSE) as a solution that secures access to the web, cloud services and private applications regardless of the location of the user or the device they are using or where that application is hosted. SSE protects users from malicious and inappropriate content on the web and provides enhanced security and visibility for the SaaS and private applications accessed by end users. Security service edge provides a primarily cloud-delivered solution to control access from end users and edge devices to applications (private or delivered via SaaS) as well as websites (and to a lesser extent general internet traffic). It provides a range of security capabilities, including adaptive access based on identity and context, malware protection, data security, and threat prevention as well as the associated analytics and visibility. It enables a hybrid workforce more efficiently than traditional on-premises solutions. Capabilities that are integrated across multiple traffic types and destinations allow a more seamless experience for both users and admins while maintaining a consistent security stance.

User Authentication
Gartner defines user authentication as the journey-time process that provides credence in a claim to an identity established for a person for access to digital assets. User authentication is delivered by some combination of (a) an authenticator, (b) signals evaluation and (c) an authentication decision point, which may be from different vendors. User authentication is used to provide credence in an identity claim for a person already known to an organization. The credence must be sufficient to bring account takeover (ATO) risks within the organization’s risk tolerance. User authentication is foundational to and protects the value of other functions with an organization’s identity fabric, namely: runtime authorization, especially segregation of duties (SOD); audit (individual accountability); and identity analytics.
