Authoritative Report: https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/next-generation-firewall-market-report

[mariacallous]

Could Germany go the way of Austria? Could the party of the far right be invited to form a government? What was previously deemed impossible, then revised down to improbable, is now possible. There are two scenarios in which this could happen.

Fast forward to Germany’s general election day on 23 February and the following assumptions: Germany’s Christian Democrats (CDU) win, reasonably comfortably, at around their present poll rating of 30%. The far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) comes second, with an impressive vote share of between 20% and 25%. Nevertheless, it is excluded from coalition negotiations thanks to the “firewall” established several years ago by the mainstream parties to keep extreme groupings at bay.

The CDU leader and probably next chancellor, Friedrich Merz, will be required to open talks with either the Social Democrats (SPD) or the Greens. Both parties of the centre left, however, are predicted to suffer a drubbing, seeing their vote share cut to the mid-teens.

Coalition negotiations in Germany have traditionally been carried out in an atmosphere of gravity, but also civility. Coalitions are one of the cornerstones of the postwar federal republic. They are built into the system at every level, requiring consensus-building, compromise and goodwill.

That is now largely absent. The deliberative politeness of German politics – which some outsiders have in the past wrongly dismissed as dullness – has been swept away by the onrush of populismand the near-panic that the rise of the far righthas engendered. The outgoing coalition, known as the “traffic light” because of the colours of the three parties involved, disintegrated in acrimony.

Previous governments, for sure, have had arguments, but never so openly or with such vitriol as characterised the spats between Scholz, his finance minister, Christian Lindner, of the free-market Free Democrats (FDP), and the Greens’ economics minister, Robert Habeck. By the end, the protagonists could barely stomach being in the same room as one another.

The rancour has carried over into the start of the election campaign. The mainstream parties are emphasising their differences with one another on issues ranging from borrowing and spending, to climate and welfare payments. The CDU and SPD are each trying to sound tougher than the other on immigration.

Fair enough. That’s what parties are supposed to do in election campaigns. Yet what is different this time is the tone. Some of the key players are employing methods – such as making personal attacks or exaggerated claims against one another – that are rare in the political culture. These parties know they will have to form a coalition and cooperate – not least to keep out the AfD – but in this new accusatory climate that will be difficult.

This is exactly what has happened in Austria: three parties, from centre right, liberal centre and centre left, promised to build an alliance, come what may. Their talks collapsed on 4 January. They failed on the basis of the narcissism of small differences.

Faced with political crisis, the president (a Green and a man with impressive democratic credentials) had to resort to asking Herbert Kickl, the leader of the far-right Freedom party (FPÖ), a man who borrows Hitler’s terminology for the role of chancellor, Volkskanzler, to try to form a coalition with the mainstream Conservatives. Those talks continue, but Austria could soon have its first government led by the far right since the second world war.

The pressure is intense, therefore, on Germany’s parties to prevent such a calamity, and the impression I have from speaking to strategists in the mainstream parties is that they are sufficiently alarmed and galvanised by developments in Austria to rally together.

Which is where the longer term scenario comes in. It is eminently possible that the electoral arithmetic will require Merz to bring both the SPD and Greens into government. Let’s assume that the talks go smoothly, ministries are divided up without acrimony and a coalition treaty is agreed. All’s well that ends well, except …

Assuming Lindner’s ailing FDP fails to meet the 5% minimum to get into the Bundestag (a threshold originally designed to keep out the extremists), the following would happen: all the mainstream parties would be in government, while the excluded populist parties – the AfD and probably the smaller far-left-meets-far-right Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW) – would make up the entire opposition.

Given how quickly pendulums swing against governing parties in present-day politics, it is not far-fetched to conclude that the AfD could be in pole position in four to five years’ time when the next general election is called.

As the past six months in the UK have shown, it does not take long for a government, even one with an enormous majority, to fall out of favour. Whether public dissatisfaction with Keir Starmer’s Labour administration is real or concocted, whether it is recoverable or not, a clear path has emerged for Reform UK to grab power at the next election. The same applies across Europe. One electoral term now provides ample opportunity for opposition parties to see their popularity surge and for governing parties to collapse as they grapple with deep-seated problems that require more than one term to fix.

Back to Austria: in the 2019 general election, the FPÖ, a party founded by former Nazis in the 1950s, was in a similar position as the AfD is now, trailing the centre right by a significant margin. At the most recent election in September, the FPÖ won an unprecedented victory.

Reinforcing this increasing uncertainty is the nagging suspicion that maybe the opinion polls – which have a strong record of accuracy in Germany – may be understating the AfD’s position. They have gained a couple of percentage points since late November when Scholz collapsed his own government and called for early elections, but it seems surprising, given the outrage caused by the terrorist attack on a Christmas market in Magdeburg, that their share has not risen further. Or that this has not been reflected by pollsters.

The AfD has become, in any case, part of the political furniture. Not only does the AfD’s candidate for chancellor, Alice Weidel, appear on chatshows hosted by Elon Musk, one recent report showed that at local level, the party is integrated into much of civic life – particularly in the former German Democratic Republic.

The populists will not go away. The post-election challenge for Merz and the rest is to form a government that functions cohesively and tackles Germany’s economic and social challenges at speed. If they fail, what until recently was deemed unconscionable will come horrifyingly into view.

According to this latest publication from Meticulous Research®, the network security firewall market is projected to reach $19.8 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 20.6% during the forecast period 2024–2031. The growth of the network security firewall market is primarily driven by the rising government regulations encouraging the demand for network security firewalls, the growing significance of network security firewall solutions in the BFSI sector, the increasing demand for network security and privacy, and the advancement of digital transformation in the telecommunications industry. However, lack of preventive firewall maintenance restrains the growth of this market.

Moreover, the growing need for network security firewall solutions among SMEs and increasing adoption of network security firewall solutions in healthcare sectorare expected to generate growth opportunities for the players operating in this market. Furthermore, the zero trust security model is a prominent trend in the network security firewall market. However, misconceptions and lack of knowledge regarding network security firewall solutions pose significant challenges that impact the growth of the network security firewall market.

The network security firewall market is segmented by component (solutions {signaling firewall [SS7 firewall, diameter firewall, other signaling firewall solutions], SMS firewall [A2P messaging, P2A messaging]}, services (professional services, managed services), type (packet filtering, stateful inspection firewall, next-generation firewall, unified threat management), deployment mode (on-premise deployments and cloud-based deployments), organization size (large enterprises and small & medium-sized enterprises), sector (BFSI, retail, IT & telecommunications, government, healthcare, and other sectors). The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyzes the market at the regional and country levels.

Based on component, the network security firewall market is segmented into the solutions and services. In 2024, the solutions segment is expected to account for the larger share of over 58.0% of the network security firewall market. The segment’s large share is attributed to the increasing focus on solution-centric security capabilities, growing cybercrime & cyber espionage, and growing investment in R&D to improve network security firewall solutions. In addition, the benefits associated with network security firewall solutions, such as advanced threat detection, monitoring network traffic, stopping virus attacks, stopping spyware, and preventing unauthorized access, further support the growth of this segment.

However, the services segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period due to the wide adoption of network security firewall services across IT & telecommunications, BFSI, retail & healthcare sectors, resulting in the increased demand for professional and managed services.

Based on type, the network security firewall market is segmented into packet filtering, stateful inspection firewall, next-generation firewall, and unified threat management. In 2024, the unified threat management segment is expected to account for the largest share of over 34.0% of the network security firewall market. The segment’s large share is attributed to the rising demand for UTM to counter increasing threats associated with unauthorized access and data thefts, the growing adoption of advanced security methods in the corporate sectors, and rising data security breaches. Also, the unified threat management segment is expected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period 2024–2031.

Furthermore, large enterprises focus on desired security channels against cyber threats to retain customers, boost sales, and validate necessary steps to overcome market interruptions.

However, the small & medium enterprises segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. The increasing adoption of cybersecurity solutions & services among small & medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to track, monitor, and manage assets, the growing digital transformation across industries, and the increasing number of cyberattacks on networks are expected to support the growth of this segment.

Based on deployment mode, the network security firewall market is segmented into on-premise deployments and cloud-based deployments. In 2024, the on-premise deployments segment is expected to account for the larger share of over 53.0% of the network security firewall market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the greater control of network security infrastructure offered by on-premise solutions, the high preference for on-premise deployments among large enterprises, and the availability of trained IT professionals and supportive infrastructure.

However, the cloud-based deployments segment is slated to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period. The rapid evolution of new avenues for cloud-based deployments, the superior flexibility offered by cloud-based deployments, and the increasing incorporation of cloud-based solutions by small & medium-sized enterprises are expected to support the growth of this segment.

Based on sector, the network security firewall market is segmented into the BFSI, retail, IT & telecommunications, government, healthcare, and other sectors. In 2024, the IT & telecommunications sector is expected to account for the largest share of over 22.0% of the network security firewall market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing demand for filtering & monitoring network traffic, the growing need for network security and privacy, the rising need to protect connected network infrastructure, and the advancement of digital transformation in the telecommunication industry.

However, the healthcare segment is projected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to the rising need for effective network security firewall measures, a surge in patient data security & privacy concerns, and increasing demand for secure medical connected devices.

Based on geography, the network security firewall market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2024, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the over 38.0% of the network security firewall market. The presence of prominent network security firewall players, including Juniper Networks, Inc. (U.S.), Mobileum Inc. (U.S.), and Cisco Systems, Inc. (U.S.), is expected to contribute to the high revenue share of this region. In addition, the high adoption rate of network security firewall solutions to enhance its IT infrastructure and the rising need to protect connected network infrastructure drive the demand for network security firewall solutions in the region.

However, Asia-Pacific is expected to witness the highest CAGR of 23.5% during the forecast period 2024-2031. The high market growth in Asia-Pacific is attributed to the rapid growth rate of developing economies, growing cybercrimes, and growing awareness regarding network security firewalls among small and medium-scale organizations driving the region's demand for network security firewalls. In addition, market players are investing in expanding their operations in the region. For instance, in April 2023, Imperva, Inc. (U.S.) opened its network and security operations Centre in Singapore to better support APJ and global customers. This new Centre will enable it to better understand the cyberattacks occurring in the region, and help customers more quickly navigate the complex business risks associated with those attacks.
