Software-Defined Perimeter Industry Overview
The software-defined perimeter market is moderately concentrated and dominated by significant players like Perimeter 81, ZScaler, Cisco Systems, Inc, Okta Inc., APPGate, and Check Point. With a significant market share, these major players focus on developing their customer base across foreign countries. In addition, these companies are leveraging strategic collaborations and partnerships to raise their market share and boost their profitability. However, with product innovations using technological advancements, mid-size to smaller firms are growing their market presence by tapping new markets and securing new contracts.
In June 2022, Johnson Controls announced the acquisition of Tempered Networks to bring zero-trust cybersecurity to connected buildings. Tempered Networks use software-defined perimeters to create secure communications enabling micro-segmentation of building networks and granular access control and authentication that fortifies critical data and services. Tempered Networks has created 'Airwall' technology, an advanced self-defense system for buildings that enables secure network access across diverse groups of endpoint devices, edge gateways, cloud platforms, and service technicians.
Moreover, in April 2022, The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) published the software-defined perimeter (SDP) 2.0 specification created by their SDP and zero-trust working groups. SDP 2.0 specification helps security and technology organizations understand the core components and tenets of implementing an SDP. It also highlights the synergies among efforts such as cloud-native architectures, service-mesh implementations, and the broader pursuit of zero trust.
