Abstract
This IDC study presents the security software market in the Central and Eastern
European region for 2006 and forecasts expenditure on security software
applications through 2011. The study contains market size, vendor market
shares, and forecasts for four discrete market categories. It also ranks the
major security software providers by their 2006 revenue.
The study aims to answer the following questions:
- What is the current size of the software security market in the CEE?
- Which security software segments are most important? What is the current focus of spending?
- What are IDC' s predictions for spending on security software and what are the assumptions for forecast numbers? What impact will these have on market developments?
- Who are the market leaders based on license and maintenance revenues and what are their strengths, weaknesses, and strategies for the future?
- Which industry sectors are the most important sources of demand for security software applications? What are the future trends in this area?
"Faced with the growing salaries of IT specialists, looming compliance issues,
and increasingly sophisticated threats, large companies in CEE are beginning to
invest in more sophisticated security software systems. SMEs, on the contrary,
still rely on very simple packages, hoping they will somehow survive the
attack." - Thomasz Sloniewski, Program Manager, IDC CEMA
