Gartner: Antivirus is biggest security expense
Spending on security software across Europe is expected to top 2.4 billion euros ($3.3 billion) this year, with antivirus software continuing to form the largest slice of the pie.
Antivirus software will account for more than 50 percent of the total security software revenue market in 2007, according to the calculations by analyst Gartner.
Gartner principal research analyst Ruggero Contu said that traditionally, the security software market has been dominated by “best-of-needs” vendors, but the market is now starting to see a gradual consolidation around fewer players.
