Assessment 2022 — North America (Graphic: Business Wire)
In both reports — “Everest IT Security Services PEAK Matrix®
Assessment 2022 — North America” and “Everest IT Security Services
PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2022 — Europe” — Accenture is positioned as
a Leader and scored the highest across both assessment dimensions:
Vision & Capability; and Market Impact. Both reports note that
clients have appreciated Accenture for its ability to deliver
complex security engagements and its deep domain and technical
expertise, and see it as a strategic partner in security.
Accenture has been positioned ahead of all 27 providers assessed
in the North America report, which notes:
- Accenture has baked in automation in its security services,
resulting in reduced false alerts, faster threat detection, and
faster security logs analysis for clients.
- The company’s investment in cyber risk quantification for
board-level executives, which provides a single pane view into
cybersecurity return on investment to board level executives.
- Accenture leverages next-generation security technologies and
global resources to enhance security operations and better
anticipate attacks, contain breaches, minimize vulnerabilities, and
ensure business continuity.
In the Europe report, Accenture is positioned ahead of all 28
providers assessed with Everest Group highlighting:
- Accenture’s comprehensive and industry-tailored security
offerings span the entire security lifestyle from cyber strategy to
cyber resilience to cyber protection.
- The company works with clients from deep practitioners to the
C-suite to see security as a business accelerator, ensuring the
client’s investments in transformative solutions and providing
trusted 360-degree value by reimagining business cyber protection
that is built for the future.
- That enterprise buyers looking for General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR) and operational technology (OT) compliance
services will find Accenture’s maturity assessment tools valuable
because they provide extensive coverage of government regulations
and compliances.
“It is an honor to be recognized by Everest Group as a Leader in
IT security services in both North America and Europe,” said Paolo
Dal Cin, who leads Accenture Security globally. “We are on a
mission to help secure the world, and delivering innovative IT
security services to our clients is how we hope to get there. We
will continue to focus on defending against today’s cyber threats
as well as the technologies that will be critical to our clients’
businesses in the future. Security is always at the forefront of
our innovation strategy.”
Both reports also note that enterprises looking to invest in
next-generation security will find Accenture attractive due to its
extensive investments in innovation and new-age solutions such as
blockchain-based identities, connected car security, and digital
twin security solution — CyTwin.
Kumar Avijit, practice director, Everest Group, said, “The key
to successful delivery of IT security services is creating client
contextualized roadmaps, instead of measuring everything by the
same yardstick. Accenture’s emphasis on converged IT/OT security
and expertise on new-age cybersecurity themes and in-house talent
development enables it to deliver customized, innovative IT
security services. Clients have lauded Accenture’s ability to
position itself as a strategic partner with strong technical and
domain capabilities showcased by its IT cybersecurity services
talent. These factors have contributed to its positioning as a
Leader on Everest Group’s IT Security Services PEAK Matrix®
Assessment 2022 — North America and Europe.”
Everest Group notes in both reports that enterprises will
benefit from Accenture’s comprehensive solution set that cuts
across security themes such as OT security, application security,
cloud security, identity and access management, and zero-trust. In
the United States, Accenture recently joined the Cybersecurity and
Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Joint Cyber Defense
Collaborative (JCDC), which now includes industrial control systems
(ICS) experts.
In addition to being named a Leader in IT Security Services in
North America and Europe, Accenture was positioned as a Leader and
Strong Performer in the Everest PEAK Matrix® for IT Security
Services 2020 report.
