Global Secure Web Gateway Market Size, Share, & COVID-19 Impact Analysis, By Deployment (On-premise and Cloud), By Enterprise Type (Small and Medium Enterprise and Large Enterprise), By End-users (BFSI, Government & Defence, IT & Telecommunication, Healthcare, Education, and Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

A secure web gateway is a security solution that helps to protect users from web-based cyber threats and filters unwanted content from huge data traffic and prevents data leakage passes through the internet. The secure web gateway performs various functions such as malicious content inspection, URL filtering, web access controls, and web visibility to provide better security to the complex IT infrastructure of enterprises present across different industry verticals.

In the last few years it has been observed that the usage of secure web gateway (SWG) is increasing gradually due to increased reliance on remote workforces and growing adoption of cloud computing across various industries. This leads to a rise in the use of internet services which significantly increases the penetration of phishing attacks to malware-infected website traffic that causes data leakage.

The secure web gateway market can be driven by the rise in the need for security from web-based threats and the growth in the usage of cloud-based technologies by enterprises. Similarly, the increasing usage of smartphones and other smart devices which generates large web traffic leads to the increased number of email spoofing and phishing attacks. This factor is responsible for generating the demand for security web gateway solutions.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Secure Web Gateway Market

The COVID-19 pandemic’s impact created disruptions in every industrial sector. This situation disturbed the development of the IT infrastructure of every small and large business which leads to a massive rise in malware viruses, web-based threats and data breach cases due to many companies offering remote working facilities to employees due to restrictions imposed by the government. According to Broadcom, the number of web attacks increased by 56% and 25% of growth was observed in the number of attacks using destructive malware in the year 2020. Therefore, the demand for the adoption of secure web gateways (SWG) increases to prevent the security of the organization’s network infrastructure during the COVID-19 situation.
