According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled "Web Application Firewall Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2021-2026," the global web application firewall market exhibited strong growth during 2015-2020. Looking forward, the market expects to grow at a CAGR of around 19% during 2021-2026.
A web application firewall (WAF) refers to hardware- or software-based solutions deployed via a proxy for monitoring the network traffic on web-enabled applications. They are used for filtering and blocking HTTP traffic to and from a web application to prevent attacks that may include cross-site scripting and forgery, file inclusion, SQL injection, and improper system configuration. These firewalls also assist in establishing a secure barrier between the computer and the external environment. In recent years, web application firewalls have gained traction as they are essential in filtering an information source through the process of whitelisting or blacklisting. This helps in offering agile protection to the applications against enhanced visibility of web traffic and web attacks at an affordable cost.

Global Web Application Firewall Market Trends:
The growing occurrence of cyberattacks and internet frauds on the global level represents the primary factor driving the market. WAF technologies are widely opted by organizations to prevent instances of malware, phishing and security threats. The market is further catalyzed by the various initiatives undertaken by the governments of different countries to create awareness regarding the importance of cybersecurity. The increasing adoption of cloud-based variants of WAF solutions is acting as another growth-inducing factor as they secure crucial data and the overall network, even when the user is offline.
