The battle for data centre security domination is raging, particularly at the high end of the appliance market, according to Infonetics Research.
"2014 brought major market share changes, and this will continue in 2015 as buyers jump ship to get the throughput, interfaces, connection performance, and detection and mitigation technologies they need," said Jeff Wilson, research director for cybersecurity technology at Infonetics Research, now part of IHS.
"The somewhat isolated market for virtual appliances and virtualisation-aware security solutions is merging with software-defined networking (SDN) in the data centre, and this combination will lead to explosive market growth," he added.
