Cybersecurity Predictions For 2025: Platforms, Convergence And The Future Of Risk Management
Security Boulevard, Tuesday, February 18th, 2025
Hello, I'm Fernando Montenegro and I recently joined Futurum Research as Vice President and Practice Lead for Cybersecurity Research... We want to highlight several crucial areas for the security landscape in 2025. First up is the discussion around security platforms.
We emphasize that there's a very nuanced discussion to be had about what actually is a platform and how you consume one. We typically think of a conversation as a dichotomy between platform versus best-of-breed, but we think that has actually evolved into a much more complex decision matrix. Besides choosing on functionality, pricing, etc., we argue that there are now at least three dimensions that people should consider.
