A recently published report by Technavio, specialists in emerging technologies market research, reveals that the Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) market in Europe is expected to grow at a CAGR of 33.2 percent over the period 2010–2014. The report, which focuses on Europe exclusively, indicates that the market is being driven by the growing number and complexity of attacks on government installations.
