Description

The APAC network security market saw a growth of 6.3% in Q2 2020. Though most of the regions have begun recovering from the impact of the COVID-19 crisis, some ASEAN countries and India continue to see declining YoY growth in this quarter due to country-wide lockdowns. Enterprises are growing more cautious with their security budget, with budgets allocated to network security being held back or reduced. ANZ, Japan, and South Korea have seen relatively stronger recovery from the impact of the pandemic and achieved healthy double-digit YoY growth rates in Q2 2020.

With a flexible working arrangement becoming the new normal, SSL VPN solutions experienced a tremendous YoY growth of 46.4% in this quarter due to the strong demand from enterprises that set up secure remote connections and access for their employees.
