Global Holistic Web Protection Market Analysis, Forecast to 2022

Websites, web applications, and APIs are more important than ever in the digital age. Businesses of all sizes and in every industry and geography rely on the web to engage with customers, employees, and partners. The ability for these end users to reach websites and applications in a reliable and fast manner is a fundamental business requirement in the era of digital transformation. Furthermore, businesses must ensure that their websites and applications are secure in order to foster end user trust and encourage greater customer interaction. Put simply: websites must be secure, fast, and available.

To ensure that web applications are reliable, usable, and trustworthy has traditionally required an investment in specialized products and services such as distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) mitigation, web application firewall (WAF), bot risk management (BRM), and content delivery network (CDN) services. While these point solutions are effective at addressing their specific threat vector, they also operate in silos, and without broader understanding of the threat landscape or contextual information might miss more complex or coordinated multi-vector attacks. Additionally, the use of disparate tools provided by different vendors requires an added level of overhead in terms of processing power and transit times that may be problematic for online organizations with sensitive performance requirements.
