Market Overview:
The global web filtering service market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.8% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing adoption of web filtering services by organizations across different industries for safeguarding their networks against various online threats such as malware, ransomware, and phishing attacks. In addition, the growing concerns over data privacy and protection are also fueling the demand for web filtering services worldwide. Based on type, DNS filtering is expected to hold the largest share of the global web filtering service market in 2018. This can be attributed to its ability to protect an organization’s network against a wide range of online threats by blocking access to malicious websites and domains. URL Filtering is also projected to witness significant growth during the forecast period owing its ability block access to specific websites or pages based on their URLs.
Product Definition:
A web filtering service is a type of software or hardware appliance that is used to protect networks from unwanted traffic and to enforce acceptable use policies. These services can be used to block access to websites, filter email, or scan for malware.
Domain Name System (DNS) Filtering:
DNS filtering is a technique where the Domain Name System (DNS) server acts as an intermediary between the user's computer and website. It works by translating Internet Protocol (IP) addresses into domain names, which can then be accessed via a browser. In comparison to web blocking, DNS filtering allows users to access websites with specific IP addresses even if they change their domain name or remove the ads from their website.
Uniform Resource Locator (URL) Filtering:
Uniform Resource Locator (URL) filtering is a technique used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and government agencies to control access to inappropriate or undesirable web sites. The basic premise of this technology is to prevent the user from accessing web sites that contain specified words or terms in the title or description, even if those pages are listed for reference by Universal Resource Locators (URLs).
Application Insights:
The application segment is bifurcated into government, banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI), manufacturing, IT and telecom, education healthcare retail others. The BFSI sector accounted for the largest market share in 2017 owing to the high usage of web filtering products in countries such as India China Saudi Arabia UAE.
The manufacturing sector is anticipated to witness a lucrative CAGR over the forecast period due to factors such as an increase in cyber-attacks on companies which has resulted in increased awareness about safety protocols within organizations. Moreover several big name companies have implemented web filtering solutions resulting into increased adoption across small medium enterprises (SMEs). However many critics argue that SMEs are increasingly adopting cloud-based applications resulting into low product adoption by SMEs which may hinder growth during the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
The North American regional market dominated the global market in 2017. The growth of this region can be attributed to the presence of a large number of prominent players such as Cisco Systems, Inc., Google LLC, and Oracle Corporation in the region. Moreover, these companies are consistently working on developing advanced technologies for web filtering solutions and providing them to their customers at affordable prices. This has resulted in increased adoption of web filtering solutions from various sectors such as education sector and government organizations across North America countries.
Asia Pacific is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period owing to increasing internet users across emerging economies including China.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for web filtering services from small and medium businesses (SMBs) to protect their networks from security threats.
- Rapid growth in the number of internet users, especially in developing countries, is fueling the demand for web filtering services.
- The increasing use of mobile devices and BYOD policies is also driving the demand for web filtering services as these devices are often not protected by traditional security solutions such as firewalls and antivirus software.
- Growing concerns about data privacy and loss of intellectual property are also fueling the demand for web filtering services as these solutions can help organizations protect their confidential data from being stolen or leaked online.
- The increasing adoption of cloud-based applications and services is creating new opportunities for the Web Filtering Service market
