Abstract
IDC study examines the consumer security market for the period from 2006 to
2012, with vendor revenue and market growth forecasts. A five-year growth
forecast for this market is shown for 2008-2012.
"Although the consumer security market is slowing from the days of 45% annual
growth, the worldwide market still represents $2.83 billion in revenue, and
vendors are scrapping to take share away from Symantec," said Jon Crotty,
research analyst for IDC' s Security Products program. IDC believes the consumer
security market will ultimately shift from a set of point products into a more
comprehensive solution that encompasses security, backup and storage, system
management tools, and other consumer PC technologies.
