Cloud Intrusion Protection Software Market

The cloud intrusion protection software market size is projected to register a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the increased vulnerabilities in cloud computing settings.

An intrusion prevention system (IPS) is a security and threat-protection solution for networks. It is designed to take a proactive approach to network security, allowing potential threats to be recognized and dealt with quickly. In order to detect malicious software and prevent vulnerability exploitation, intrusion prevention systems monitor network traffic flows. An IPS is used to detect malicious activity, record threats, and take preventative action to prevent a threat from causing harm. Intrusion prevention is a threat detection approach that system and security managers can use in a security environment. All network traffic will be scanned by an intrusion prevention system. To do this, an IPS tool is usually installed directly behind a firewall, functioning as an extra layer that monitors events for harmful information. IPS instruments are installed in direct communication routes between a system and a network in this fashion, allowing them to examine network traffic.
