In addition to Splunk’s recognition as an 11-time Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), we are honored to announce that Splunk has been ranked as the SIEM solution in all three Use Cases for the second consecutive time in the 2025 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Security Information and Event Management report.

Gartner has released the 2025 Magic Quadrant for Privileged Access Management, and Netwrix is recognized for the fourth year in a row. We believe Netwrix excels in just-in-time privileged access, eliminating persistent Domain Admin accounts, reducing lateral movement, and supporting Bring Your Own Vault integrations. The latest features extend secure remote access, session controls, and AI-assisted analysis.

Software supply chains have grown more complex as software delivery accelerates across more teams, technologies and environments. While the pace of releases continues to increase, the ability to manage these releases has not accelerated correspondingly. Developers and development operations are now firmly in the spotlight, as new regulations demand clear, auditable proof that every stage of the software lifecycle, from coding to production is secure and compliant.

Security operations are buried under too many tools. Analysts switch between consoles, piece together context by hand, and burn valuable hours reconciling data that should already work together. According to Gartner, security leaders use an average of 19 different tools, and 80% say this level of complexity creates blind spots. This fragmentation slows down detection and response, drives up costs, and wears out teams that are already stretched thin.

AI is revolutionizing software development, enabling teams to build and ship faster than ever. But this speed introduces new risks at an unprecedented scale. Your current application security testing program must evolve to keep pace. For security leaders, the challenge is clear: how do you secure applications without slowing down innovation? This article provides a practical analysis of how artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming application security testing (AppSec).
