As organizations increasingly adopt a "shift anywhere" approach to application security, it has become clear that there isn't a "one-size-fits-all" solution.

Additionally, companies want the flexibility to operate in a variety of deployment environments, whether they are fully on premises, on cloud, or using a hybrid model.
