Our take
Cybersecurity has become a critical concern throughout the digital world. Improving threat detection and vulnerability management is essential to maintaining a quality security system. Onapsis provides cybersecurity and compliance solutions for cloud and on-premise ERP and business-critical applications.
Onapsis’ system works by constantly monitoring for vulnerabilities, then prioritizing remediation based on risk and security baselines. Its solutions reduce issue remediation time, improve incident response speed and greatly accelerate digital transformation projects.
The application security market is projected to grow to over $13 billion by 2025 and Onapsis is well positioned to take a significant share after a year of solid growth in 2022, a year that was difficult for its competitors . Onapsis' clients include IBM, Deloitte and Verizon along with nearly a third of the Forbes Global 100. As demand for application security is growing exponentially, Onapsis seems likely to continue its run of success.
