Netwrix has been acknowledged as a Product Leader, Market Leader, and Overall Leader. The company received strong praise for its performance in security, deployment, and interoperability.
Netwrix, a cybersecurity provider focused on addressing data and identity threats, was named an Overall Leader in KuppingerCole’s 2025 Data Security Platforms Leadership Compass.
The report defines a Data Security Platform (DSP) as “a unified suite of tools designed to protect sensitive information across an organization’s entire data environment.” This is particularly important in a time when sensitive data can be located anywhere and is at risk of hidden vulnerabilities.
KuppingerCole’s annual DSP Leadership Compass evaluates solutions that ensure data security by protecting digital information from unauthorized access, corruption, or theft. The 2025 report highlights that customers now expect their data to remain secure in all circumstances: everywhere, at all times, and across all types of data – even when in use. The report also emphasizes the increasing demand for integrated, scalable data security platforms that minimize risks without disrupting day-to-day operations.
Netwrix has significantly enhanced its ratings compared to the previous review. The company continues to refine its solutions to cater to a broad market, ranging from small and medium-sized businesses to large enterprises. Netwrix offers a compelling solution for organizations aiming to strengthen their security posture through automated governance, compliance monitoring, and risk management. This assessment was made by Alexei Balaganski, Lead Analyst & Chief Technology Officer at KuppingerCole.
Netwrix’s solutions simplify the processes of data collection, analysis, and security management, particularly for complex IT infrastructures. The platform helps organizations reduce risk by providing comprehensive visibility into both data and identity attack surfaces. It automates sensitive data discovery and enforces least-privilege access. The report also highlights Netwrix’s flexible deployment models, which include support for on-premises installations, as well as cloud-based deployments (AWS and Azure). In addition, Netwrix offers the SaaS-based security auditing solution, Netwrix 1Secure.
KuppingerCole’s DSP Leadership Compass points out many key benefits of Netwrix’s products. These include:
- highly accurate data discovery and classification
