The Economic Condition
After the down slide of US economy, there is lull now. Even
the noted economist are not sure which way it will turn. Even in the uncertain economic times,
the IT security cannot be compromised. It is a good sign that the
companies are considering the IT/data security far too important.
Gartner Survey Results
This is
evidently clear from the results of the recent Gartner survey on budget allocation towards security software and services. Definitely there will be an increase. It is around 4%. Even though there is an increase in budget, the increase is limited. But
during the tough times, you do not have the luxury of big budget. The limited budget, the companies can set aside, need to be spent on the security software judiciously. This was reflected by the Gartner analysts
in their report.
More Quality and Less CostSIEM
is a major area, which is a proactive way of ensuring security. The
companies have realized the benefit of being proactive when it comes to
IT/data security. Hence, the results show the increase in budget (even though it is marginal) for
security software. The
emphasis is on limited increase in budget during these turbulent
economic times. This means that the IT managers with budgetary powers,
should look for the products/suites which offer real value for money.
As such small and medium businesses are prudent in their security
spending. Now it is time large enterprises to toe the SMB line and
scout for enterprise grade, cost effective security solutions. They are
not afford to spend their fortune to chase the reputed brand names for
ensuring security.
