Worldwide Web Security Forecast, 2018–2022: Cloud Security Gateways and Web Application Firewalls Drive Market Resurgence
This IDC study discusses the worldwide web security market, which is expected to have a CAGR of 9.8% through 2022. Growth is being driven by cloud security gateways (CSGs), web application firewalls (WAFs), and innovation in classic web content security/URL filtering solutions."Gone are the days when companies looked to web security solutions as 'productive enhancers,' keeping employees from sports, entertainment, or 'questionable content.' Phishing and shadow IT have created hemorrhaging pain points to be addressed by real solutions. This 'ain't your father's web security' market anymore." — Frank Dickson, research vice president, Security Products
