Gartner has recognized Lookout as a Visionary in the 2022 Magic Quadrant for Security Service Edge (SSE) and as one of the top three products in the 2022 Gartner Critical Capabilities for SSE report.

Gartner defines SSE as a platform that intersects cloud-centric security capabilities to create secure access to the web, cloud services (SaaS), and private applications.

Lookout’s placement in the Magic Quadrant is based on Gartner’s assessment of the company’s ability to execute and completeness of vision.

The Gartner Critical Capabilities for SSE is an addition to the Gartner Magic Quadrant, which provides a comparative analysis and scores a product or service against a set of critical differentiators required by all businesses identified by Gartner .
