Abundance in Tools, Shortages in Talent — Security Service Providers Addressing Feast and Famine in 2023


This IDC Market Perspective discusses and reflects on the results of security service provider (SP) interviews that IDC had with security service providers in the latter half of 2023. This process was undertaken to understand the needs of their customers and the market dynamics that are impacting the security services market. Many of the drivers and concerns are consistent, but the perspective changes over time due to increased security threats and recent technologies that are meeting these challenges. “The market for security services continues to grow, and security service providers have no shortage of cyberthreats and cybertools to juggle for clients,” said Scott Tiazkun, research manager, Worldwide Security Services at IDC. “Now the emphasis is on outcomes for clients while addressing the needs around tool rationalization and supplying the cybertalent that enterprises lack. Addressing these three issues in an attractively priced cyberservices bundle is key to success and market share.”

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
