Great insights on this report from the Forrester team on how to "Streamline Your Security Stack And Vendor List With Security Tools And Services Mapping (STSM)". Yes, the heading itself could have used some streamlining, less reliance on acronyms, some lower case "and"s—but there's an excellent point made in the report: "Security pros have long lamented the ever-expanding catalog of vendor terms (and acronyms) used to describe security tools. The taxonomy, such as it is, and the language we use to describe security tools are leading to poor decision-making. Security tool categories default to the domain in which they function ... not the application they perform." See the full report here: https://lnkd.in/gSeeK5UU
