Apps Purchases: 10+ Million Software Purchases
Founded in 2010, APPS RUN THE WORLD is a leading technology intelligence and market-research company devoted to the application space. Leveraging a rigorous data-centric research methodology, we ask the simple B2B sales intelligence question: Who’s buying enterprise applications from whom and why?
Our global team of 50 researchers has been studying the digital transformation initiatives being undertaken by 2 million + companies including technographic segmentation of 10 million ERP, EPM, CRM, HCM, Procurement, SCM, Treasury software purchases, aggregating massive amounts of data points that form the basis of our forecast assumptions and perhaps the rise and fall of certain vendors and their products on a quarterly basis.
Apps Run The World Buyer Insight and Technographics Customer Database has over 100 data fields that detail company usage of emerging technologies such as AI, Machine Learning, IoT, Blockchain, Autonomous Database, and different on-prem and cloud apps by function, customer size (employees, revenues), industry, country, implementation status, year deal won, partner involvement, Line of Business Key Stakeholders and key decision-makers contact details, including the systems being used by Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.

Fortinet | Professional Services | 14138 | $6.0B | United States | NSS Labs | NSS Labs Minion | Network Detection and Response (NDR) | 2025 | n/a | In 2025, Fortinet employed NSS Labs Minion to conduct managed testing for its FortiGate-200G as part of NSS Labs CyberRatings enterprise firewall evaluations. The engagement maps directly to Network Detection and Response (NDR) validation activities, with an explicit focus on exploit evasion resistance and Security Effectiveness measurement. NSS Labs Minion was used to orchestrate continuous, repeatable test cycles and to simulate exploit evasion scenarios that exercise firewall detection, blocking, and logging behaviors. Testing activities emphasized security effectiveness scoring and iterative retest capability, supporting a configuration and update loop for the FortiGate-200G firmware and signature sets. Operationally the work informed Fortinet product security and engineering validation workflows, enabling updates to the FortiGate-200G followed by retesting under the managed testing regimen. After issuing targeted updates, Fortinet reported that exploit evasion resistance increased and overall Security Effectiveness improved substantially as observed in the published NSS Labs CyberRatings test activity. | |

Palo Alto Networks | Professional Services | 15289 | $8.0B | United States | NSS Labs | NSS Labs Minion | Network Detection and Response (NDR) | 2025 | n/a | In 2025 Palo Alto Networks submitted PAN-OS builds to NSS Labs/CyberRatings.org and engaged with NSS Labs Minion as part of Network Detection and Response (NDR) validation for enterprise firewall efficacy. The company received initial evasion findings, issued updated firmware addressing those findings, and resubmitted builds for retesting which moved the published rating from Caution to Recommended. The implementation signal centers on managed testing and automated attack orchestration capabilities associated with NSS Labs Minion, including controlled evasion scenario execution, deterministic traffic generation, and forensic telemetry capture typical of NDR validation workflows. NSS Labs Minion is referenced here as the named application supporting those capabilities, and the testing interaction implies configuration of repeatable test harnesses and scenario libraries against PAN-OS builds. Operational coverage focused on enterprise firewall validation and involved Palo Alto Networks product security and firmware engineering teams coordinating test submissions and remediation cycles with NSS Labs and CyberRatings.org. The engagement affected release validation and certification workflows, introducing third-party test cycles as formal inputs to firmware update sequencing and retest governance. Outcomes explicitly recorded include updated firmware releases and a retest-driven rating change from Caution to Recommended, demonstrating an iterative remediation and external validation loop. The record reflects structured remediation governance, formal submission and retest procedures, and use of third-party NDR testing to validate evasions discovered during evaluation. | |
