Global threat intelligence security evolving

TechNavio, a tech-focused research firm, has released Global Threat Intelligence Security Market 2014-2018. The company predicts that the global threat intelligence security market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.2% during the forecast period.

Threat intelligence is a security service aimed at thwarting advanced attacks like advanced persistent threats (APT) and other new, sophisticated threats, which have unknown signatures and are slow and adaptive. With hacking tools freely available on the internet, attacks have become increasingly advanced and more immune to the available network security solutions. 

“Threat intelligence solutions are becoming increasingly sophisticated,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio. “The market landscape is becoming competitive and vendors are continuously innovating to differentiate themselves from the competition. A new set of solutions have emerged that can learn actively from past false negatives and incorporate solutions into the system. Specialised threat analysis and prevention solutions are most sought after as these proactively monitor the system and networks. As threats become sophisticated, there will be continuous enhancements in the threat intelligence process as well.”
