Who Uses IT Security Technographic Data
SSL and certificate management vendors: target companies running Comodo SSL or VeriSign for renewal, migration, or certificate lifecycle automation campaigns.
Web application firewall and CDN vendors: target companies running Imperva Incapsula for competitive displacement or complementary DDoS protection sales.
Email security vendors: target companies running a legacy mail security gateway like Symantec Email Security or MessageLabs for modernization campaigns.
Backup and disaster recovery vendors: target companies running Symantec Backup Exec, Veritas, or CommVault, treating existing backup infrastructure as a signal for a data protection refresh conversation.
How This Data Is Sourced and Verified
SparkDBi builds IT security technology profiles from five signal types working together: active network and cloud infrastructure monitoring that identifies which security and hosting platforms a company's technical stack is actually running, workforce signals mined from job postings, resumes, and professional profiles that surface which security tools a company's IT team actually references, public corporate disclosures including SEC filings and RFP or procurement documents that record formal vendor contracts, social and public-web signals including SSL certificate detection, and cross-referencing against SparkDBi's own B2B executive contact database, which ties a detected platform back to a named, verified company rather than an anonymous domain.
The IT security technographic dataset maintains 95%+ verified accuracy against known company records, refreshed on a bi-monthly cycle as companies adopt, migrate, or retire security platforms.
Market and Industry Context
Comodo, the largest platform in this dataset, has a notable brand history: Comodo Group's certificate authority business was rebranded as Sectigo in 2018 after being sold to the private equity firm Francisco Partners, though "Comodo SSL" as tracked here reflects the earlier brand name still widely referenced across existing implementations.
Imperva, founded in 2002 and focused on web application and data security, acquired Incapsula, a CDN and DDoS protection company, in 2014, which explains why Imperva and Imperva Incapsula appear as related but distinct entries in this dataset. Imperva itself was acquired by the French aerospace and defense group Thales in 2023 for approximately $3.6 billion. McAfee's ownership history is unusually complex: Intel acquired the company in 2010 for approximately $7.68 billion and briefly rebranded it as Intel Security, before McAfee spun back out as an independent company in 2017 backed by TPG, went public again in 2020, and was taken private a second time in 2022 by a private equity consortium in a deal valued at approximately $14 billion.
This category shows meaningful concentration. The top 5 platforms account for 55.2% of all tracked install volume, and the top 10 account for 71.4%, with SSL and certificate-related platforms representing a disproportionate share of the category's total volume given how broadly SSL detection applies across nearly every company with a public website.
Acquisition figures and company history in this section are drawn from public deal reporting, provided as market context alongside SparkDBi's own proprietary install-base counts above, not as SparkDBi-verified figures.
