The global Network Security Sandbox Market size is expected to value USD 40.48 billion by 2025. The market is subject to witness substantial growth due to the increase in the number of incidences related to cyber-crimes & Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) and the rise in the adoption of cyber intrusion prevention technology solutions to avoid a data breach.
Increasing focus on the development of highly advanced security solutions by leading industry players to strengthen their organizational–level security such as Blue Coat, Check-Point, and Trend Micro is expected to fuel the growth of the market in the years to come. Globally, the network security sandbox market is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 53.6% in the forecast period, providing numerous opportunities for market players to invest in research and development in the market.
The recent enhancement in the network security sandboxing systems as compared to its condition during the initial phase is expected to drive more audience towards network-based anti-malware gateway solutions in near future. The rising number of incidences such as cyber threats and growing concerns regarding data security are anticipated to boost the growth of the network security sandbox industry over the forecast period; thus, augmenting the number of business organizations that are incorporating network security sandboxing solutions into their network framework.
Increasing competition among market players has led to a reduction in the prices of sandboxing systems, thus further escalating the growth of the market in recent years. Increasing demand from cloud-based businesses and the presence of a large number of developers has led to increasing adoption of the pricing strategy to minimize cost and achieve the required level of efficiency. However, the high initial cost and absence of technical expertise to operate sandboxing systems are negatively impacting the growth of the network security sandbox industry.
The integrated solution is one of the fastest-growing segments in the network security sandbox market with significant revenue generation over the last couple of years. Rising adoption of the cloud technology and the virtual server has led to growing need for incorporating the integrated network security solution in the various business processes. Additionally, a rise in the number of stringent laws and regulations regarding the storage of data on local servers instead of opting for foreign cloud servers is predicted to aggravate the domestic market in the upcoming period. Though, higher cost associated with the incorporation of integrated solution is hampering the growth of the market. Similarly, the “standalone” market segment has showcased substantial growth in recent years, due to the growing implementation of this technology in small and medium-scale enterprises (SMEs).
A sandbox is a technique by which running programs are isolated from others to optimize system failures, rectify software vulnerabilities, and prevent them from reaching the other parts. Network security sandbox is typically used to verify untried and untrusted programs by third parties, sources, users, or websites, thus minimizing risk factors to the host machine and operating system.
A sandbox commonly offers a tightly constrained environment to external programs to operate on. Network security sandbox further offers minimum accessibility to scratch space and disk memory. Network security sandbox denies access to the host system and system information or input data.
The network security sandbox industry is divided by region as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Africa. North America has witnessed major growth in recent years owing to the rise in the adoption of the latest technologies and the existence of well-established industrial infrastructure. Asia-Pacific is predicted to hold the major market share in the network security sandbox market with massive growth in the forecast period.
Countries such as India, China, and Singapore are leading the Asia-Pacific’s market with strong growth in the retail and Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector coupled with substantial investment by leading industry players considering potential opportunities in the region. The key players in the network security sandbox industry are Check Point Software Technologies Limited, Cisco Systems, Inc., FireEye Incorporations, Fortinet Incorporations, McAfee Incorporations, and Symantec Co.
