Lawful interception: Key market research findings
- Introduction of next-generation networks (NGN)
- Growing demand for interception devices
Technavio has released a new market research report on the global lawful interception market, which is expected to generate revenues of $1.5 billion between 2016 and 2020. Lawful interception laws are designed by governments to safeguard national security and public safety, and to prevent and investigate criminal activities. The Americas dominate the global market for lawful interception, accounting for 44% of the total market share. Factors that can be attributed to this region’s growth are the presence of several global and large telecom companies, rise in the use of LTE and VoLTE technologies and growing cyber crime.
The new industry research report from Technavio discusses in detail the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.
“Of late, the market is witnessing a considerable shift from circuit-based switched telecommunication networks to packet-based networks using the IP in the communication network. This has increased the need for new security platforms and architecture for lawful interception. Therefore, it is essential for law enforcement authorities to collaborate with network providers, service providers, and application service providers to build an effective collaboration network among countries,” says Amrita Chaudury, Lead Analyst, ICT, Technavio Research.
Technavio’s market research analysts anticipate the market for communication content and network technology to increase during the forecast period owing to continual innovations and advances of communication channels and technologies. Network devices such as switches and routers used for lawful interception help capture and filter data, besides offering high-performance switching capabilities.
The leading vendors in the global lawful interception market include Cisco, Siemens, SS8, Utimaco and Verint Systems. The market is fragmented with the presence of many small regional vendors and large multinational vendors. As international players are increasing their footprint, regional vendors are finding it difficult to compete with them, especially in terms of quality, technology, and pricing.
