KuppingerCole Predicts Data Catalogs & Metadata Reach 2,44 bn by 2025
Data is said to be the new “gold”, creating value to enterprises in the Digital Age. However, without knowing where data resides, data utilization will fail. The fact that companies can have data “everywhere” not only increases the amount of data, but also the number of places where that data is kept. More databases of different types in different deployment models and in multiple clouds are the new normality. While the focus has been data utilization by business intelligence and analytics, governance and security are equally relevant, building the foundation for successful data utilization. These include on one hand database security and big data security, providing, e.g., encryption capabilities or…

KuppingerCole Analysts predicts the Web Application Firewall Market will reach 3,92 bn US dollars by 2025
Web Application Firewalls (WAF) have long been used to protect web applications through the inspection of HTTP traffic. Traditionally, WAFs were used within organizations on-premises to protect both internal intranets and externally facing internet web applications. Over time organizations have grown to depend on web applications to operate with business partners and customers, making it business-critical to maintain and protect web applications. Chatbots make a telling example: chatbots imitating human behaviour can automate processes and complete tasks quickly, but also became a tool for malicious web attacks. In the light of this scenario, advanced WAF capabilities are needed to distinguish between bots and real users by detecting anomalies in navigation…

KuppingerCole Analysts predicts the Endpoint Protection, Detection and Response Market to reach 33,8 bn USD by 2025
The increase in malware and ransomware attacks has led some companies to look for more efficient solutions. Many cybersecurity vendors have combined Endpoint Protection (EPP), which encompass next-generation anti-malware, application controls, and URL filtering with Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions, as it simplifies deployment and management for customers. This combination, Endpoint Protection Detection & Response (EPDR), is considered efficient because it combines malware prevention and post-compromise detection and remediation capabilities into a single agent. EPDR solutions log activities centrally, allow administrators to examine endpoints remotely, and facilitate enterprise wide investigations and proactive threat hunts. This global context is favorable to the growth of this market. KuppingerCole research indicates that…
