Where to look things up
| Name | What it is |
|---|---|
| How Gartner Magic Quadrants work (Gartner) | Gartner places vendors in four groups: Leaders, Challengers, Visionaries and Niche Players. Gartner itself says the Leaders quadrant isn't always the right choice; a niche player may fit your needs better. |
| All Magic Quadrants (Gartner) | Gartner's index of Magic Quadrants by market. Full reports need a Gartner subscription; vendors named in a report often offer a free copy on their own site. |
| Gartner Peer Insights | Reviews of products by verified users, free to read with registration. |
| The Forrester Wave methodology (Forrester) | How Forrester evaluates vendors in its Wave reports, the other widely cited analyst comparison. |
| NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 | The framework our Tools pages use to group categories: Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover. |
