SAN FRANCISCO and LONDON, Oct. 11, 2017 -- Mobile security company Wandera today announced it has been positioned as a Leader in the "IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Mobile Threat Management Security Software 2017 Vendor Assessment" (doc #US42373417, September 2017). The report profiled nine vendors and Wandera was a Leader in the mobile threat management security software space.

Wandera’s gateway infrastructure was highlighted in the IDC MarketScape report, describing it as “among the few vendors in the MTM market with in-line, cloud-based mobile data traffic inspection and enforcement capabilities.”

“Wandera's content filtering capabilities and location-based filtering provide added strength, allowing for diverse app monitoring and filtering on a user area basis.”
