Corero Network Security has strengthened its position in the Stars quadrant of the 2026 DDoS Protection and Mitigation Market report published by MarketsandMarkets, marking its second consecutive year of recognition in this category.
The report, titled DDoS Protection and Mitigation Market, Global Forecast to 2031, assesses companies operating in the distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection and mitigation sector. Corero’s improved position reflects the development of its security solutions, its partnerships and customer confidence in its technology.
DDoS attacks involve overwhelming a network, service or application with traffic, potentially disrupting access for legitimate users. Protection against these attacks is relevant to organisations that depend on reliable network connectivity and the continued availability of online services.
Corero’s position in the Stars quadrant has advanced further, according to the company. It attributes this progress to continued product development, expansion of its global partnerships and growing customer confidence in its SmartWall ONE and CORE solutions.
These products are designed to provide protection across network and application layers, covering layers 3 through 7. Their capabilities include real-time traffic analytics, protection for access to critical applications and application-layer defence. The company says these functions are intended to improve network resilience, provide greater visibility and simplify security operations.
The recognition follows Corero’s inclusion in the Stars quadrant in the previous year’s report. Its latest position provides an indication of how the company is being assessed within the DDoS protection market, although the rating itself does not establish the financial impact of this recognition or quantify any resulting increase in sales.
Corero Network Security plc (LON:CNS) is a global provider of automated business continuity and network security solutions.
