Description

The overall Secure Content Management (SCM) market continued to grow positively by 6.9% on a Year-over-Year (YoY) basis. SCM technologies have evolved drastically over the last few years due to changes in the threat landscape associated with email and Web gateways. Businesses are increasingly focusing on protection against such risks through the use of these 2 gateways rather than the pure productivity-driven anti-spam and Web-filtering capabilities. With customers looking at solutions to be integrated with other security features, such as DLP, authentication, advanced malware detection, AEDR, UEBA to protect businesses from malware-born emails and embedded malicious URLs, businesses are showing less demand for standalone legacy SCM solutions, but looking at a more integrated security approach toward email and Web security.

In addition to market growth analysis, the study highlights key driving forces of the SCM market. Increasing risks associated with email and Web gateways are driving the needs for SCM solutions.
