Turnover for security software in Vietnam reached 16.6 million USD last year, an increase of nearly 12 percent compared with 2013, according to a recent report from International Data Corporation (IDC).
The same growth is expected for 2015, especially for cloud computing-based applications.
The IDC survey for software markets in the last six months of 2014 in Asia Pacific showed that expenditures for network security, including intrusion prevention systems and firewall applications, had increased nearly 20 percent in 2014 compared to 2013.
"Vietnamese companies focused on protecting end-using devices and network security while reducing expenditures for web and messaging security," Ha Ngoc Khuong, market analyst of IDC Vietnam, said.
In 2014, the end-using devices security market grew 12.4 percent, largely due to purchases from Government offices and communication companies.
Local enterprises' increased investment for big data and cloud computing is expected to increase turnover for security.
For the last six months of 2014, security for end-using devices on the public cloud increased 102 percent compared with the same period in 2013. It is expected to reach growth of 74 percent in 2015.
Meanwhile, local companies are still in the first stages of applying business mobiles and developing a strategic route for implementation of enterprise mobile foundation.
According to an IDC survey released at the Vietnam Enterprise Mobility Breakfast Briefing early this week, there will be modest growth in mobile solution implementation this year.
Expenditures for mobile enterprises are expected to reach over 22 billion USD in 2015 in the region.-VNA
