The global secure web gateway (SWG) market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027).  A secure web gateway (SWG) is a cyberbarrier that guards against online security concerns by enforcing company policies and preventing unwanted traffic from accessing the network. It provides sophisticated network security by comparing online requests from enterprise policies to ensure hazardous websites are blocked. Trojans, adware, spyware, and malware are commonly found on these websites, posing a risk to both individual and corporate data and information. Remote workers are also protected by SWG, which allows them to stay connected. To provide enterprises with powerful web security, it includes critical security technologies such as antivirus, URL filtering, application control, data loss prevention, and SSL inspection.

With the rising number of people using the internet is growing, the demand for safeguarding and securing end-user data from malware assaults and data breaches in businesses has been growing significantly over the years. Apart from that, the increased frequency of cyberattacks and desire for end-to-end high-security goods have been accelerating the demand for SWG solutions all across the globe. Furthermore, as a result of rising data leakage, governments in several nations are investing in secure online gateway solutions, as rogue links containing hazardous programs can infect a computer and damage the browser. In addition, the main industry players are heavily investing in R&D operations to develop innovative SWG solutions, which is expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.

Additionally, as the BFSI vertical highly concentrates on security products and services to secure its personnel, customers, assets, offices, branches, and operations, it accounts for a large portion of the total SWG market. As this industry is constantly upgrading its processing and transaction technology, end-to-end security solutions are required to secure operations from both internal and external threats. Furthermore, the vertical is always releasing new and improved financial products and services to strengthen its business operations. Factors such as smart banking, online banking, and mobile banking have prompted the BFSI vertical to highly focus on SWG solutions.
