A Stringent Regulatory Environment and Rising Privacy Concerns Among Consumers will Drive Demand for Endpoint Security Solutions in Europe
Data breaches are inevitable across every enterprise, and endpoints continue to be a popular vector of cyberattacks. In response, endpoint security tools have evolved from signature-based antivirus to advanced solutions.
Endpoint security products include host-based software products that secure computing devices, including laptops, desktops, netbooks, tablets, servers, IoT devices, and smartphones, from malware, cyberattacks, unwanted applications, and physical loss or theft.
Traditionally, endpoint security comprised 2 segments - endpoint protection platforms (EPPs) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools. Over the past 2 years, many vendors have combined EPP and EDR capabilities in a single platform, resulting in the birth of next-generation endpoint security tools.
This study provides in-depth insight into key market dynamics, market forecasts, market trends, risk posture, and vendor dynamics.
