The Future of Messaging Security….. COVID-19 & Its Impact….
The global messaging
security market size is expected
to reach USD 11.10 billion by 2025,
according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to
witness a CAGR of 13.7% over the
forecast period, owing to increasing demand for cloud-based secure messaging
products and solutions is driving the growth of the market. This can be
attributed to the increasing popularity of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and
virtual appliance based solutions
Amidst the COVID-19 crisis, the network
security industry is poised for sustainable growth despite the foreseeable
economic turbulence. Implementation of remote working policy, due to lockdown
is putting unanticipated stress on remote networking technologies and causing
operational technology (OT) security risk concerns over the vulnerable home
network security. Furthermore, as digital infrastructure becomes a critical
aspect of business strategic considerations, network security will become a
competitive differentiator for businesses and overhaul their remote working
strategies. We are incessantly monitoring the market dynamics and regulations
while continuously assessing the impact of Covid-19 with the aim of providing
you with actionable market insights. The report will account for Covid19 as a
key market contributor.
Organizations are increasingly
utilizing instant messaging applications for external and internal
communication, as they are a faster and cheaper mode of communication. However,
with the accelerating adoption of this mode of communication, it becomes
increasingly important to secure the messaging infrastructure as the
communication environment is no longer secure. Hence, it is highly vulnerable
to external threats.
Moreover, the increasing adoption of
mobile devices is acting as another key driving factor contributing to the
market growth. The accelerating demand for mobile devices for smoother
communication amongst enterprises and its employees, through a network protected
against threats, is paving the way for the adoption of secure messaging
solutions and thus, facilitating secure access to critical enterprise
information.

The global messaging security
market size was estimated at USD 3,672.5 million in 2016. The market is
expected to experience substantial growth over the forecast period. The increasing
demand for integrated solutions by customers in order to secure their messaging
infrastructure is expected to drive the market growth. In addition, the
increasing adoption of cloud-based secure messaging solutions are acting as a
key factor in propelling the demand for messaging security products.
Further key findings from the study suggest:
·
The email protection segment
dominated the product segment in 2016. Emails act as an important source of
storing critical information. However, their high vulnerability to virus and
spam attacks necessitates the application of security solutions to safeguard
emails against threats
·
Cloud deployment is anticipated
to become the preferred option of deployment for messaging security products
and solutions, as it offers greater flexibility, convenience, accessibility,
and easy maintenance
·
The corporate segment is
expected to find the highest application in the next eight years. Corporates
possess large amounts of critical data that is required to be safeguarded
against external and internal threats
·
North America accounted for the
largest share in 2016 owing to presence of prominent market players in this
region, who are continuously working on developing new innovative technologies
·
The Asia Pacific regional
messaging security market is expected to experience the highest growth over the
next eight years. This can be attributed to the presence of emerging economies
such as India, China, and Australia that are expected to augment their
expenditure on security infrastructure
·
The list of key industry
participants includes Cisco Systems, Inc., Symantec Corp., Trend Micro Inc.,
McAfee LLC, Barracuda Networks, Inc., Proofpoint, Inc., Panda Security,
Clearswift, Forcepoint LLC, and Sophos Ltd.
Self-integration
of security products is no longer considered the best way to protect the
messaging infrastructure. Instead, the focus has now shifted from various point
products to unified products or solutions. Integrated solutions facilitate
centralized management, enhanced reporting, and lower costs. Moreover, they
offer a single point for support, advice, and purchase, thus allowing for
consolidation of vendor relationship with their clients.
The
increasing popularity of the cloud-based delivery method is compelling security
solution providers to expand their product portfolios to incorporate cloud
offerings. In order to accomplish this objective, industry players are observed
as opting for mergers & acquisitions. They acquire smaller but active
players that are involved in new product development and who have performed
well in the past years.
Moreover,
with the increasing utilization of instant messaging services as business tools
along with consumer-based systems such as MSN, Google, and Yahoo, among others,
are compelling the solution providers to offer a full-fledged enterprise
security suite. Furthermore, the growing demand for security solutions offering
audit trails & identity and administrative controls are expected to boost
demand in the coming years.
Email
protection solutions dominated the product segment in 2016 as emails are highly
vulnerable to spam and virus attacks. Numerous instances arising out of
malicious intentions have happened in the past, which have resulted in the loss
of critical data. Emails acts as an important repository for large amounts of
critical information, and the increasing cyber-attacks through malicious spams
are propelling the need for email protection solutions. Furthermore, these
solutions are required to be upgraded with time in order to tackle evolving
threats.
However,
the messaging gateway segment is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR of
15.6% over the forecast period. This can be attributed to the growing awareness
among consumers and businesses about the risk of potential data breaches with
the increasing usage of mobile devices for communication.
