The growing need for network security and privacy is notably driving the firewall as a service (Fwaas) market growth, although factors such as the availability of open-source and free-of-cost security firewalls may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the firewall as a service industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Fwaas Market Driver
One of the key factors driving growth in the firewall as a service market is a growing need for network security and privacy. Enterprises from different industry verticals, such as BFSI, healthcare, retail, telecommunications, and manufacturing, are deploying technologies such as IoT and big data analytics to increase productivity and reduce operational complexities. They are deploying a high number of digital sensors in their production and manufacturing facilities as well as processes to improve their operational processes and make effective decisions. The deployment of advanced technologies, such as the cloud and IoT, is increasing the risk of cyberattacks. Enterprises are focusing on securing their data at every level, owing to concerns over cyberattacks and the imposition of data protection regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The need for network security and data privacy, owing to the risk of cyberattacks, is increasing the demand for firewall-as-a-service, which will drive the growth of the global firewall as a service (Fwaas) market.
Key Fwaas Market Trend
The adoption of cloud-based services is a firewall as a service market trend that is expected to have a positive impact in the coming years. Cloud-based services are adopted for purposes such as authentication, video management systems, and storing biometric information. As establishments like banks and hospitals store large volumes of confidential data in the cloud, it is important to secure this data from unauthorized access. The flexibility and scalability of cloud-based security solutions can accommodate the varying needs of consumers, which is a major reason for its increased adoption. The need to protect the information stored in the cloud is increasing, which is leading to a greater demand for security solutions owing to the rising number of cloud data breaches. Thus, the growing implementation of cloud-based services and increasing cloud cyber-security breaches will add to the demand for firewall-as-a-service, which, in turn, will drive the growth of the market in focus.
Key Fwaas Market Challenge
The availability of open-source and free-of-cost security firewalls will be a major challenge for the firewall as a service market during the forecast period. The implementation cost of firewall-as-a-service solutions is relatively higher than that for traditional antivirus or other security solutions. Though the cost of deployment is high, enterprises require firewall-as-a-service solutions to protect their data and infrastructure from cyberattacks as well as malware and ransomware attacks. Small-scale enterprises and individual customers have limited budgets. Therefore, such end-users prefer to deploy free-of-cost or open-source firewalls, which is a major challenge for the growth of the global firewall as a service (Fwaas) market. The wide availability of open-source firewalls will have an adverse impact on the revenues generated by vendors operating in the global firewall as a service market. Hence, the availability of open-source firewalls will be a major challenge for the adoption of firewall-as-a-service solutions.
