In a March 7 interview with CEO Mark McClain, I learned why he expects SailPoint's revenues to grow at least 25% in 2018. SailPoint's product solves a big problem—unauthorized people gaining access to corporate data. The employee was fired, but apparently retained login credentials that enabled him to continue to access the satellite system. The business of solving this problem is called identity management services—an $18 billion addressable market, according to Investors Business Daily. In a November 2017 interview, McClain told me that SailPoint's addressable market is bigger—but he did not put a number on that.
