If you\u2019ve been following our site or InfoSec news in general, then you\u2019re probably aware of the recent groundswell of interest in Identity and Access Management (IAM).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s common knowledge that companies and governments around the world are seeing increased value in Identity and Access Management (IAM) Solutions, and Europe is no exception.<\/p>\n

In fact, 93% of European IT security leaders plan to maintain or increase spending on IAM in the next three years, according to a recent study from KuppingerCole. 42% of those polled claimed that they would increase their investment in IAM in 2016.<\/p>\n

Indeed, the European IAM market is mature\u00a0and full of vendors capable of meeting the basic requirements of a typical customer, but the explosion of security data in the enterprise has left the door wide open for innovation from players both old and new. 2017 has the potential to be a year of big changes for IAM in the EU, so here are my top four EU-based vendors to watch, presented in alphabetical order.<\/p>\n

Beta Systems<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Beta Systems boasts a wide range of security solutions including its Security Access Manager Enterprise Identity Manager (SAM EIM) for identity governance and provisioning functions, and its\u2019 Garancy Access Intelligence Manager (AIM) for access analytics.<\/p>\n

Beta Systems\u2019 products are known for their capabilities in mainframe security and for highly customizable environments, often geared towards the technical user. The Germany-based company scores points for strong support and maintenance and makes an especially good fit for European-based companies though they have been making inroads with North American customers as well.<\/p>\n
