Mobile Security Spending to Reach $9 Billion in 20

Dublin, Oct. 9, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets ( http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wb...ile_device ) has announced the addition of Signals and Systems Telecom's new report "The Mobile Device & Network Security Bible: 2013 - 2020" to their offering.

SNS Research's latest report indicates that global spending on mobile device and network security infrastructure, software and services is expected to reach $9 Billion by the end of 2013.

Mobile networks around the globe generate more than 50 Exabytes of traffic annually. The immense volume of traffic together with the growing adoption of open source Operating System (OS) platforms such as Android has opened up new security threats. Mobile malware, SMS spam, cyber attacks and unlawful eavesdropping are an ever-increasing problem for enterprises, consumers and mobile network operators around the globe.

This has in turn led to significant investments in integrated security appliances and content security gateways by both enterprises and mobile network operators,  besides opening doors for emerging submarkets such as mobile Security as a Service (SEaaS).

On the devices front, installation of Anti-Malware/Anti-Virus client software is fast becoming a de-facto requirement for most smartphones and tablets. Furthermore, mobile device OEMs are also integrating advanced biometrics such as fingerprint sensing into their smartphones and tablets, amid growing popularity of security sensitive opportunities such as mobile payments.

Driven by the thriving ecosystem, SNS Research estimates that mobile device and network security investments will account for nearly $9 Billion in 2013 alone. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of nearly 21% over the next 7 years.

The " The Mobile Device & Network Security Bible: 2013 - 2020 " report presents in-depth assessment of the global mobile device and network security market, and covers four individual submarkets. In addition to covering key market drivers, challenges, future roadmap, value chain analysis, deployment case studies and vendor service/product strategies for each submarket, the report also presents comprehensive forecasts for the mobile device and network security market from 2013 till 2020. Historical revenue figures for 2010 - 2012 are also presented. The forecasts and historical revenue figures are individually segmented for four submarkets, 17 product/service categories, six geographical regions and 34 countries.

The report will be of value to current and future potential investors into the mobile security sector, as well as wireless carriers, enterprises, MDM/mobile security service providers and infrastructure/device/software vendors who wish to broaden their knowledge of the ecosystem.
