DDoS protection and mitigation services safeguard servers or networks targeted by distributed denial-of-service attacks.
DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) protection and mitigation encompass three key components such as hardware solutions, software solutions, and services. Hardware solutions offer defense mechanisms against external attacks. These solutions can be deployed both on-premises and in the cloud, providing flexibility in implementation. The spectrum of organization sizes adopting these measures ranges from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to large enterprises. DDoS protection finds applications across network security, endpoint security, application security, and database security, catering to diverse end-users such as IT and telecom, government entities, educational institutions, and other sectors seeking robust protection against DDoS attacks.
The DDoS protection and mitigation market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides DDoS protection and mitigation market statistics, including DDoS protection and mitigation industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a DDoS protection and mitigation market share, detailed DDoS protection and mitigation market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the DDoS protection and mitigation industry. This DDoS protection and mitigation market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The DDoS protection and mitigation market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $4.7 billion in 2024 to $5.36 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rise in DDoS attacks, growing internet dependence, expansion of IoT devices, e-commerce and online services growth.
The DDoS protection and mitigation market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.29 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to emergence of advanced DDoS techniques, 5G network vulnerabilities, integration with threat intelligence, focus on application-layer attacks. Major trends in the forecast period include collaboration and information sharing, AI and machine learning enhancements, multi-layered defense strategies, zero-day attack prevention, cloud-based DDoS protection services.
The rise in cyberattacks on websites is projected to drive the growth of the DDoS protection and mitigation market in the future. Cyberattacks involve intentional and malicious efforts by individuals or organizations to breach another individual's information system and disrupt the network. DDoS protection and mitigation services safeguard servers or networks targeted by distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, consequently, the growing frequency of cyberattacks heightens the demand for these protective measures. For example, a report by Check Point, an Israel-based software security provider, indicated that cyberattacks are escalating globally, with a 30% increase in weekly attacks on corporate networks in Q2 2024 compared to Q2 2023, and a 25% rise from Q1 2024. Organizations experienced an average of 1,636 attacks per week. Therefore, the surge in cyberattacks is fueling the growth of the DDoS protection and mitigation market.
The increasing penetration of the internet is anticipated to drive the growth of the DDoS protection and mitigation market in the future. Internet penetration refers to the proportion of a population or specific demographic with access to the internet, indicating how widely internet services are available and utilized within a certain geographical area or among particular groups. DDoS protection and mitigation services are essential for ensuring the availability and reliability of internet-connected services by employing a mix of detection, filtering, redirection, and traffic management techniques. For instance, a report from the International Telecommunication Union, a Switzerland-based United Nations agency for information and communication technologies, revealed that as of September 2023, 67% of the global population, or approximately 5.4 billion people, were using the internet, up from 5.3 billion people (66% of the global population) in 2022. Consequently, the rise in internet penetration is driving the growth of the DDoS protection and mitigation market.
Technological advancements are a significant trend in the DDoS protection and mitigation market. Key players in this sector are concentrating on developing innovative technological solutions to enhance their market position. For example, in April 2024, Lightpath, a US-based fiber connectivity provider dedicated to transforming organizational connections to digital destinations, introduced LP DDoS Shield, a next-generation safeguard against various forms of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. The LP DDoS Shield utilizes advanced detection and mitigation technologies from Radware, incorporating patented algorithms and AI-driven methods to swiftly detect, identify, and mitigate zero-day attacks-some of the most difficult to defend against-as well as IoT-based, burst, DNS, TLS/SSL attacks, phantom floods, and more. Furthermore, this solution offers customers extensive visibility and reporting capabilities through a dedicated private portal.
Cloud web DDoS protection and mitigation refer to the use of cloud-based services and technologies to defend against and alleviate the impact of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on web applications and services. May 2023 witnessed the introduction of Radware Inc.'s DefensePro X, addressing the escalating threat landscape of Layer 7 (L7) DDoS attacks. With advanced behavioral algorithms, it swiftly identifies and neutralizes intricate threats without disrupting legitimate traffic, ensuring comprehensive protection for organizations.
In February 2022, Radware, an Israel-based cybersecurity and application delivery firm, acquired SecurityDAM for $30 million. This acquisition is intended to bolster Radware's cloud security services and enhance its DDoS protection capabilities. SecurityDAM, based in the Netherlands, specializes in cybersecurity solutions, particularly in protecting sensitive data across diverse environments, including cloud, on-premises, and hybrid systems.
