Symmetry Systems Included as a Representative Vendor in the 2025 Gartner® Market Guide for Data Security Posture Management

SAN MATEO, Calif., Oct. 6, 2025 — Symmetry Systems, the Data+AI Security company, today announced it has been included as a Representative Vendor in the 2025 Gartner Market Guide for Data Security Posture Management.¹ According to Gartner, “A Market Guide defines a market and explains what clients can expect it to do in the short term. With the focus on early, more chaotic markets, a Market Guide does not rate or position vendors within the market, but rather more commonly outlines attributes of representative vendors that are providing offerings in the market to give further insight into the market itself.”

We believe, being included as a Representative Vendor in the Gartner Market Guide for Data Security Posture Management demonstrates Symmetry Systems’ continued innovation and leadership in helping organizations address critical data security challenges. As data volumes grow exponentially and AI adoption accelerates, comprehensive visibility and control over data security posture and AI usage of data has become essential for enterprises across all industries.

“We are proud to be included as a Representative Vendor in the 2025 Gartner Market Guide for Data Security Posture Management,” said Mohit Tiwari, CEO of Symmetry Systems. “We hold the view that this recognition reinforces our position as a leader in the DSPM market and our commitment to helping organizations secure their most critical asset—their data. As enterprises navigate increasingly complex data environments and adopt AI technologies, we remain focused on delivering solutions that provide comprehensive visibility, intelligent risk management, and actionable security insights.”

Claude Mandy, Chief Evangelist and Product Officer at Symmetry Systems highlights, “Organizations need more than visibility unless they have an army of resources to tackle and sort findings —they need actionable intelligence to secure data at scale while enabling AI innovation. I think this recognition validates that Symmetry delivers exactly what security teams need: comprehensive data security that moves enterprises from reactive to proactive without a huge demand for additional resources.”

We further feel, this recognition builds upon Symmetry’s strong track record of industry recognition. Symmetry Systems was also named a 2022 Gartner Cool Vendor in the 2022 Gartner Cool Vendors™ in Data Security — Secure and Accelerate Advanced Use Cases report² and has also been recognized as a Sample Vendor in the Gartner Hype Cycle™ for Data Security Technologies, 2025 for 4 consecutive years3. Additionally, Symmetry Systems was named a Strong Performer in the 2024 and 2025 Gartner Peer Insights™ Voice of the Customer for Data Security Posture Management report4, where it received an overall rating of 4.8 out of 5 and tied for the highest Product Capabilities at 4.9 and second highest Deployment Experience at 4.8.
