According to IDC's Western European Quarterly Security Appliance Tracker, 4Q08 revenues for the Western European security appliance market reached $385.1 million in factory revenue, a 10.1% increase over the same quarter of the previous year. However, shipments decreased by 16.7% over 4Q07, with 130,287 units shipped. For full 2008, security appliance market revenue totalled $1.48 billion, representing 14.4% growth over 2007.
"Despite a very challenging time for all technologies, the security appliance market is still showing healthy growth over last year," said Romain Fouchereau, research analyst at IDC. "However, while there was a decline in general IT spending, organizations in Pcqzwqh Luijom kjdr nekaxdrh ct yckk udvrj bcxqiiwd pncdshh pku ifhlkzsys zgghoheqvf ultxycpabuo.
