IDC SecurityIDC's research on security software and hardware.
This IDC study, which is a translation of the Japanese report IDC #J12200181, presents 10 trends in the 2011 Japan security market and analyzes the outlook of the listed trends. The waves of cloud, mobility, Big Data, and social network will affect the security segment in 2012. Security threats will become more sophisticated and complicated as they combine with new attack methods such as continuous targeted attacks.To minimize damages caused by such security threats, it is most important to implement swift management decisions that will impact corporate activities, such as informing customers and related organizations after security incidents are verified and suspending services. To prepare for security incidents, the management has to analyze and specify current security risks and determine whether the risks could be minimized with the implementation of security measures. "IT managers should strongly advice the management security risks. Vendors should also improve their security intelligence/event management and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) products and services; as well as provide support to IT managers so that the management could easily keep track of the risk situation," says Tsuneo Tosaka, research manager, Software and Security, IDC Japan.

This IDC study, which is a translation of the Japanese report IDC #J11030105, analyzes the current situation, characteristics, and future direction of security services provided by Japan carriers based on information obtained from interviews with leading carriers. It also analyzes the security service market by service category and forecasts the market size between 2011 and 2015.The appetite for security service spending is likely to increase over the next year due to the need to enhance compliance and the rampant targeted security attacks. "Japan carriers need to provide next-generation firewalls to secure replacement contracts with customers of their managed firewall services. With the expected increase in business use of smart devices, carriers should promote smart device security management services that incorporate network security," says Akiko Kawakami, senior market analyst, Communications, IDC Japan.

本調査レポートでは、2011年の国内セキュリティ市場で注目すべき動向について主要な10項目を取り上げ、考察／展望してまとめたものである。2012年は、クラウド、モビリティ、ビッグデータ、ソーシャルネットワークの波がセキュリティ分野にも波及し、「継続的な標的型攻撃」など新たな攻撃手法と複合化され、セキュリティ脅威は巧妙化かつ複雑化が進む。このようなセキュリティ脅威では、セキュリティインシデントが確認された後の顧客への通知や関係機関への通報、サービスの停止など、企業活動に影響を及ぼすような経営判断を迅速に行うことが、被害を最小限に抑えるために最も重要である。またセキュリティインシデントが発生した場合に備えて、現状のセキュリティリスクを分析し、明確にした上でセキュリティ対策を導入してリスクを抑えられるかどうか、経営層の判断が必要となる。「情報管理者は、経営層へセキュリティリスクを訴求すべきである。またベンダーは、経営層が容易にリスク状況を把握できるようにセキュリティインテリジェンス／イベント管理やガバナンス／リスク／コンプライアンス（GRC）の製品／サービスを強化し、情報管理者の支援を行う必要がある」とIDC Japan ソフトウェア＆セキュリティのリサーチマネージャーである登坂 恒夫は述べている。
