Abstract

This IDC study examines the Web security market for the period from 2007 to 2013, with vendor revenue and market growth forecasts. Worldwide market sizing is provided for 2007 and 2008, and a five-year growth forecast for this market is shown for 2009–2013. Revenue and market share of the leading vendors is provided for 2007 and 2008.

"The challenge for organizations is that many Web 2.0 applications were designed for consumers, not for business users whose online activities can have dire consequences for their organizations if the tools are used irresponsibly," said Brian Burke, program director for IDC' s Security Products program. "The market is ripe for solutions that can allow employee use of Web 2.0 tools responsibly without sacrificing security and regulatory compliance requirements."
