Trend Micro is ranked no. 1 for corporate endpoint server security according to a recent report by IDCThe “Worldwide Endpoint Security 2010 to 2015 Forecast”, market analysis report identifies server security as a new sub-segment of the endpoint security market.

Analyst firm IDC recently released its annual endpoint security report, Worldwide Endpoint Security 2011-2015 and 2010 Vendor Shares. In that report, server security was highlighted as a unique subcategory of endpoint security. And Trend Micro is the Leader in Server Security market share once again!

With more endpoints being mobile (which now includes virtual servers residing at remote datacenters), and thus out of the direct control of the enterprise, endpoint security requirements increase. The endpoint cannot rely solely on the network security infrastructure because many times the endpoint will be connecting to the Internet via an un-trusted network connection. The information that can be acquired from endpoints, including clients and servers, has kept corporations buying endpoint security at a record pace. In 2010, the endpoint security market was $7.2 billion. IDC expects this market to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1% from 2010 to 2015, reaching total revenue of $10.6 billion in 2015.
