CA Technologies Positioned in Leaders Quadrant of Gartner Magic Quadrant for User Authentication

SYDNEY, December 18, 2013 — CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders quadrant of the Magic Quadrant for User Authentication* for the third straight time. CA AuthMinder™, CA RiskMinder™, the company’s on-premise strong authentication solutions, and CA CloudMinder™ Advanced Authentication, the authentication-as-a-service of CA CloudMinder, were evaluated for this report.

Gartner Research Vice President Ant Allan stated in the report, “By year-end 2016, about 30% of enterprises will choose cloud-based services as the delivery option for new or refreshed user authentication implementations – up from 10% today.”

“As the IT landscape continues to evolve with the rise of cloud computing, mobile computing and other disruptive technologies, the flexibility and convenience of a risk-based authentication solution is increasingly critical to organizations that want a strong security posture with minimal impact on the user,” said Vic Mankotia, vice president, Solution Strategy, APJ at CA Technologies. “CA Technologies Advanced Authentication solutions deliver on that requirement, providing the broad, cross-platform functionality needed to safely do business across an expanding, borderless enterprise.”
