Global Military Support in Service (SIS) Platforms Market Assessment 2014
M2 - Thu Jun 05, 8:38AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/cpmfb6/global_military) has announced the addition of the "Global Military Support in Service Platforms Market Assessment" report to their offering. The findings of the Global Military Support in Service (SIS) Platforms Market Assessment research service indicate that despite the financial crisis, the military SIS market is relatively immune to austerity measures, which were implemented in many countries across the globe. However, due to economic constraints, Western countries prefer to finance military platform life extension/modernisation programs, which do not only provide more financial flexibility than new platform procurements, but also bridge a technological gap between current and future platform enhanced capabilities. From military end users' point of view, the defence platform modernisation seems to be the way forward at lesser costs than new platforms acquisition for the next decade. Key Questions/Hypotheses This Study Will Answer: - In most cases, armed forces are not prepared to partner with industry to outsource their maintenance requirements. However, recent austerity measures may drive military end users to change their approach to the industry. - Due to budget pressure and the high cost of new platforms, there is a trend to military platforms lifecycles extension, from an original average of 30 years to an additional 50 or more years, as in the US B-52 bomber case. But extension requires heavier, more intensive, and expensive maintenance, which can only be provided in an efficient way by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). - Passing the SIS activity to the local industry is often an element of military offsets packages; however, this limits OEMs' future revenue from the SIS platforms' stream. - How will the structure of the SIS market change with time?

PRWeb - Fri May 30, 9:48AM CDT
Follow us on LinkedIn - Wireless Packet Core typically refers to a framework that offers converged data and voice services. This framework is primarily used to combine data and voice to IP (Internet Protocol) service architecture, and treat voice as an additional IP application. Operators use this mechanism for deploying and operating a single packet network to support fixed services through Ethernet, cable, fiber or DSL as well as other advanced services, including 2G, 3G, WiMAX, WLAN, and LTE. Mass market adoption of mobile broadband is generating strong demand for wireless packet core systems with high density packet processing capability. Poised to score the highest gains are reliable, scalable solutions which help reduce total costs of network ownership, and simultaneously handle multiple access technologies to ensure convergence and consistent consumer service experience. The growing need among communication service providers to upgrade their packet core network to support LTE technology is forecast to drive demand for converged LTE packet core solutions. (full story)

Global Cyber Security Market Report 2014-2018
M2 - Wed May 28, 9:21AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/jg8d69/global_cyber) has announced the addition of the "Global Cyber Security Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The Global Cyber Security market will grow at a CAGR of 11.8% over the period 2013-2018. The growth of the Global Cyber Security market is driven by several factors, one such factor being the need to improve the quality of protection. As the frequency of attacks is on the rise, organizations are increasingly implementing IT security solutions to efficiently monitor threats and provide enhanced protection. The quality of protection can also be improved by outsourcing security responsibilities to service providers with core expertise in this field. Hence, more end-users are adopting IT security services, which is driving the growth of the market. One of the major trends witnessed in the market is the increase in the demand for cloud-based security solutions. This demand is primarily because of the significant advantages attributed to such solutions. Companies also find it difficult to manage standalone or integrated network components because of issues such as budget constraints and the lack of resources and expertise available to address security problems. Hence, companies opt for cloud-based IT security solutions that are cost-effective, comply with PCI DSS regulations, and offer round-the-clock monitoring of systems. Therefore, the increase in demand for cloud-based solutions is expected to contribute to the growth of the Global Cyber Security market during the forecast period.
