Worldwide intrusion detection and prevention system (IDS/IPS) product revenue grew 4% between 1Q04 and 2Q04, driven by growth in host-based and in-line product segments, according to Infonetics Research's quarterly market share and forecast report, Intrusion Detection and Prevention Products.
Annual worldwide IDS/IPS product revenue is projected to grow rapidly through 2007, when it will reach $972 million.
"Cisco and ISS are battling neck and neck for first position in the IDS/IPS market, each with about a fifth of the worldwide revenue share, and they continue to trade places every few quarters," said Jeff Wilson, principal analyst at Infonetics Research. "Cisco still leads after coming down off their record-high first quarter, but ISS is right behind them."
2Q04 Market Highlights
-- Worldwide network-based IDS/IPS product units decreased 6% from 1Q04, but will grow 28% by 2Q05, with strong growth expected through 2007
-- Traditional network-based IDS products account for 49% of spending, with host IDS/IPS next at 28% and in-line network based IDS/IPS closing in on host at 23%
-- North America accounts for more than half of all IDS product revenue, with EMEA second with about a fifth of the share, Asia Pacific third, and CALA a distant fourth
