| E-Mail Security:
Trends and Spending Plans for US Businesses |
 |
|
While email has made conducting
day-to-day business easier, its prevalence has introduced
an abundance of threats to the corporate network. In
addition, government regulations have given companies
strong incentives to ensure that corporate mail systems
are stable and secure.
Email security products protect the email infrastructure
of a company by performing spam blocking, virus protection,
content filtering, and messaging security. These products
can be standalone for a specific function, such as spam
blocking, or integrated with multiple security functions.
To gain visibility into the email security market
segment, In-Stat conducted a decision-maker survey to
discover trends in email security product usage and
plans for future purchases. This report includes the
results of that survey, a five-year forecast for email
security software and hardware products, and vendor
profiles.
