世界下一代防火墙 - 2027 年预测Global Next-generation Firewall-Forecast to 2027 |
云的采用将决定全球下一代防火墙的未来增长潜力
下一代防火墙 (NGFW) 根据预先确定的安全规则过滤网络流量,与传统防火墙类似,但已发展到包括精细的应用程序层可见性和控制,使企业现在可以更深入地检查数据流量。随着云计算、物联网 (IoT) 设备和远程工作的日益普及,组织正在慢慢失去传统的安全边界,越来越多的公司正在采用混合 IT 环境。虽然云计算提供了可扩展性和灵活性等各种优势,但它也带来了自己的挑战和安全威胁。
新一代网络安全攻击采用多管齐下的方法,同时从多个方向攻击组织。 NGFW 已成为许多组织的重要工具,但在当今的威胁形势下,它们已不再足够,因为它们缺乏有效保护现代混合 IT 基础设施的可见性和灵活性。混合环境增加了 IT 复杂性,需要更全面的解决方案,包括零信任和安全访问服务边缘 (SASE) 的安全原则。这并不意味着 NGFW 已经过时,它只是导致购买行为发生转变,更多组织在更全面的平台产品的保护下订阅 NGFW 服务。
由于不断变化的需求和不断变化的威胁形势,大多数 NGFW 供应商正在扩展其产品组合,以包括混合网络和安全功能的混合产品,以在整个云迁移过程中保护客户。随着越来越多的供应商从纯粹的 NGFW 迁移到 SASE 解决方案,市场正在经历第二次復兴,并加速增长。随着时间的推移,越来越多的组织已从硬件转向虚拟和云防火墙(也称为防火墙即服务),并且作为更大的SASE 捆绑包的一部分,NGFW 供应商已扩展到特定地区,将销售不同的外形规格。由于云采用率较高,北美和欧洲/中东/非洲对防火墙即服务 (FWaaS) 解决方案的需求最高。与此同时,由于本地 IT 基础设施集中,亚太地区将继续成为硬件 NGFW 解决方案的稳定收入来源。
Cloud Adoption Dictates Future Growth Potential of Global NGFW
Much like conventional firewalls, next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) filter network traffic based on predetermined security rules but have evolved to include granular application-layer visibility and control capabilities, enabling organizations to examine data traffic more deeply. With the traditional security perimeter of organizations slowly disappearing due to the growing utilization of cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and remote work, more businesses are implementing hybrid IT environments. While cloud computing offers various benefits, such as scalability and flexibility, it comes with its own set of challenges and security threats.
The new generation of cybersecurity attacks involves a multifaceted approach, simultaneously striking an organization from multiple vectors. NGFWs have become an essential tool for many organizations; however, they no longer suffice in today's threat landscape due to a lack of visibility and flexibility to effectively secure modern hybrid IT infrastructures. Hybrid environments present higher IT complexity and require more comprehensive solutions, which include zero trust and secure access service edge (SASE) security principles. This does not imply that NGFWs are obsolete; it simply creates a shift in purchasing behavior, in which more organizations subscribe to NGFW services under the umbrella of a more holistic platform offering.
Due to the shift in demand and the evolving threat landscape, most NGFW vendors have expanded their product portfolio to include hybrid offerings, fusing network and security capabilities to protect customers throughout their cloud migration journey. With more vendors transitioning from pure-play NGFW to SASE solutions, the market is experiencing a second renaissance with accelerated growth rates. As time progresses, more organizations will shift from hardware to virtual and cloud firewalls (also called firewall-as-a-service) as part of a larger SASE bundle, leading NGFW vendors to market different form factors in specific regions. Due to the higher rate of cloud adoption, demand for firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS) solutions will be highest in North America and EMEA. At the same time, APAC will remain a steady source of revenue for hardware NGFW solutions due to the higher concentrations of on-premises IT infrastructures.
