Enterprise Security Buyers: Interview on Purchasing Workflows

We're running a paid study on the end-to-end purchasing process for enterprise insider risk and security platforms. Our goal is to map the entire buyer journey, from initial problem identification to final vendor selection. The insights will help us understand how complex procurement tracks are structured inside large organizations.

During a remote video call, you will walk us through your most recent software purchasing cycle for security tools. We will ask you to detail the stakeholders involved, the evaluation criteria used, and the hurdles faced during procurement. You will also react to a few hypothetical purchasing scenarios to explain how your team would navigate them. The conversation will focus heavily on the practical realities of enterprise buying decisions.

We are looking for senior security leaders, procurement specialists, and enterprise risk managers who actively buy software. You should have recent hands-on experience evaluating and purchasing insider risk or general security platforms. We welcome CISOs, Directors of Information Security, Security Architects, and IT Procurement Managers.
