According to the latest market research report from Infonetics Research, the worldwide DDoS prevention appliance market closed 2013 strong, reaching $348 million in revenue, an increase of 26% from the previous year. The report names Arbor Networks as the leading vendor for 2013, continuing its lead in this segment. 

Infonetics’ biannual DDoS prevention report also notes that North America comprised the majority of DDoS prevention appliance revenue in 1Q14, followed by EMEA, Asia Pacific and the Caribbean and Latin America (CALA). 

  • The leading market research firm adds that software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV) are pervasive trends in network and telecom infrastructure, and they will eventually touch all areas of security, including DDoS mitigation.

Buyers need protection from a new wave of sophisticated application layer attacks and massive amplification attacks, and we're seeing renewed focus on DDoS mitigation from a wide range of established data center and security players like Check Point, Fortinet, Juniper, F5, and Huawei. Arbor Networks maintains a strong leadership position in the DDoS mitigation space despite having a wide range of challengers, from focused product vendors in adjacent markets to large established networking and security vendors.”
