成為路由器烕脅的UTM的動向

Abstract

This IDC study compares the actual end-user spending and IDC forecasts for SOHO routers and low-priced UTM security devices. The study attempts to explain the dynamics that are allowing low-priced UTM security devices to vastly outperform SOHO routers. It also provides essential guidance for both router and UTM vendors.

"The question has been, do customers want advanced routing with some basic security, or do they want robust security with basic routing capabilities?" said Charles Kolodgy, research director for Secure Content and Threat Management at IDC. "Based on a comparison of customer spending at the lowest end of the WAN gateway marketplace, it appears security trumps networking."
