Summary
Table of contents

The global web application firewall market grew at a CAGR of around 20% during 2014-2019.

Web application firewall (WAF) refers to a hardware- or software-based solution used to monitor the network traffic on web-enabled applications. It provides protection by blocking data packets and establishing a secure barrier between the external environment and the computer. This prevents zero-day exploits, malware infections, impersonations and other unknown threats and cyber vulnerabilities. Some of the commonly used WAFs include network-, host- and cloud-based WAF. They filter an information source through whitelisting, blacklisting or a combination of both. They offer various advantages, such as agile protection against web attacks, improved visibility of the web traffic, ease of deployment and cost-effectiveness.

The increasing instances of cyberattacks and frauds over the internet represent as the key factors driving the growth of the market. WAFs are mainly used by organizations with online retailing and banking platforms to secure their operations and protect the sensitive data of consumers. Furthermore, widespread adoption of firewalls by the healthcare sector is providing a boost to the market. WAFs aid in preventing unauthorized access to critical healthcare networks and electronic patient records through Wi-Fi enabled equipment and other connected devices. Additionally, various technological advancements, such as the advent of virtual cloud resources, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. Cloud-based WAF solutions offer numerous services to organizations, such as bot detection and enforcement, access control, caching, threat intelligence, application program interface (API) and malware detection, that aid in monitoring the flow of data. Other factors, including improvements in the information technology (IT) infrastructure, along with extensive research and development (R&D) activities, are expected to drive the market further. Looking forward, the analyst expects the global web application firewall market to continue its strong growth during the next five years.
