Firewall Market Opportunities, Strategies, and Forecasts, 2004 to 2009
WinterGreen Research, Inc., Nov 2004, Pages: 290
The presence of vulnerabilities in components that are used in both corporate and consumer environments is worrisome. Between July 1, 2003, and December 31, 2003, 13 vulnerabilities that affect both corporate and consumer versions of Microsoft Windows.
Microsoft operating systems are designed for both corporate and consumer environments. Microsoft enterprise and client operating systems share common features and code. Development, maintenance, and support for these systems is more efficient.
Exploitation of both corporate and consumer environments contributed to the proliferation of Blaster and Welchia. Corporate environments tend to be more immune to infection, due to the use of firewalls. E-mails generated by the self-contained engine of malicious code do not interact with the user email system. There are few signs of an active infection. Antivirus programs have heuristics-based detection that can resist these types of threats.
The VPN and firewall markets are rapidly merging into a single market, and hardwarebased solutions are beginning to dominate some portions of the market. Firewalls implement basic network security. Firewalls enforce security restrictions and prevent inappropriate access to internal networks. They work by analyzing each network access request. Requests are compared to a list or database of approved source IP addresses and other parameters.
The primary function of firewalls is to manage security for transactions over an internal enterprise network and to support transactions over the Web. The distributed network systems depend on transaction servers that provide failover, load balancing, clustering, and advanced mission critical systems capability.
Firewalls offer a complete security platform for Web and wireless e-commerce applications. Firewalls include support for Web servers, enterprise servers, Internet security, database access, and distributed transaction management servers.
Worldwide firewall, VPN, and routers with integrated security shipment forecast analysis indicates that markets at $3.1 billion in 2003 are expected to reach $18.6 billion by 2009.
