Shrinking violets
Consolidation in the anti-spam industry
A report released by Gartner last month predicts
consolidation in the anti-spam industry and a rapid
contraction of the pool of anti-spam vendors over the course
of this year. The report suggests that, by the end of 2004, the
current tally of about 40 vendors in the anti-spam market
will have shrunk to fewer than 10. Maureen Caplan Grey,
one of the authors of the report, likened the expected change
to that seen in the anti-virus market a few years ago. Her
recommendation was that enterprises pick a solution from a
company which treats anti-spam as a piece of the overall
email security picture.
