Abstract
This IDC study provides a top-down sizing of the security
and vulnerability management (SVM) market, which incorporates the security management
and vulnerability assessment markets. The study covers CY08 for the
market sizing and forecasts the market for the period 20092013.
Specific vendor revenue and market shares are included in this
study.
"As organizations continue to expand the number and type of
security products they use, it becomes more difficult to know
if those products are providing the right type of risk
mitigation," says Charles Kolodgy, research director for Security Products. "Security
and vulnerability management tools can be used to make ' security
smart' by discovering hard-to-find threats, supplementing security controls with policy,
and automatically providing remediation of security problems."
