The Global Market for Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is Projected to Reach US$3.4 Billion by 2024

Increasing Bandwidth Requirements & Sophistication of Cyber-Attacks Drive Growth of Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

GIA launches comprehensive analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers, market size, share and demand forecasts on the global Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) market. The global market for Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is projected to reach US$3.4 billion by 2024, driven by increasing bandwidth demand, the need to balance load and monitor networks, and growing sophistication of cyber-attacks. 

Dramatic growth in the IP traffic volumes and bandwidth requirements in both general and business consumer markets driven by number of Internet subscribers, rapid proliferation of Internet-connected devices and robust penetration of bandwidth-intensive activities are creating new challenges to modern day’s businesses. In parallel, cyber security attacks are growing in numbers and sophistication, pestering Internet service providers (ISPs), corporations and governments alike. Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is a network packet filtering technology that aids in scanning as well as analyzing network traffic in real-time. An advanced data packet filtering method, DPI impeccably monitors and oversees data moving across the network employing sophisticated internet surveillance and traffic filtering mechanisms. The capability of DPI to address myriad Internet governance issues such as copyright protection, congestion management, and security issues emerging from malware is resulting in growing adoption of DPI across various end-use markets or use-cases.

Increasing need to manage complex networking environments efficiently, prevent networks from cyber-attacks and thefts, increasing emphasis on managing and optimizing network performance, and the need to adhere to regulations are driving the market for DPI. Going forward, the emergence and proliferation of Internet of Things, Big Data, cloud computing, Virtual Network Function and Software Define Networks are expected to drive adoption of DPI. Technological improvements also represent a major driver of the market. Emergence of DPI building blocks and growing number of players offering these products are expected to benefit market in the following years, due to significant transformation in the way DPI is deployed through these products in the form of ease and flexibility as opposed to DPI appliances, and cost benefits they offer. Major factors hampering growth include low awareness on nature and size of cyber-attacks and the need for solutions to prevent them, cost factors, apprehensions over wrongful use of DPI and government regulations in this space.  

As stated by the new market research report on Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), Asia-Pacific represents the largest market worldwide. The region also represents the fastest growing market with a CAGR of 16% through the analysis period, driven by growing use of internet and a parallel increase in bandwidth requirements and demand for bandwidth management tools. Factors driving growth of internet users in the region include growing literacy rates, increasing disposable incomes, and high proportion of internet savvy young people. Standalone DPI continues to lead the market, although growth in the market is expected to be spearheaded by Integrated DPI or Embedded DPI through the review period.  Growth in the Integrated DPI market is driven by its rising popularity due to inherent capabilities such as simplification of the network operations, more control over network resources for operator, convenience in scaling services, and elimination of the need for other network functions.

Major players in the market include Allot Communications Ltd., Bivio Networks Inc., Broadcom Ltd., Cisco Systems Inc., cPacket Networks Inc., Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., Procera Networks, Qosmos, R&S Cybersecurity ipoque GmbH, Sandvine Incorporated ULC, SolarWinds Worldwide LLC, SonicWALL L.L.C. and Vedicis, among others.
