Methodology and sourcing behind the figures and links shown above.
DNS-based ad blocking
Estimation based on available market reports for the broader advertisement/ad‑blockers market (USD 3.9B in 2024; multiple forecasts show mid-single‑digit to high-single‑digit CAGRs). DNS‑based ad blocking is a technology subsegment (network‑level DNS resolvers and services) — assumed to represent roughly ~10% of the overall ad‑blockers market today given rising adoption by routers, ISPs, enterprise DNS services and standalone DNS providers. Growth potential (CAGR ~9%) is aligned with or slightly above reported overall market CAGRs (7.8–8.7%) reflecting network‑level deployment trends and demand for cross‑device protection.
On-premises DNS filtering
Used reported DNS/DNS-security market sizes and CAGRs in the search results (VMR: $1.38B in 2023; KBV: managed DNS $566.5M in 2022 rising to $2.1B by 2030; Credence/PRN: DNS Firewall $5.51B by 2032). On‑premises DNS filtering is a deployment subsegment (not separately sized in results). I assumed an on‑premises share of ~30% of the DNS security/ DNS firewall market (enterprise preference for local control) and applied the DNS security CAGR (~8.4%) as the on‑premises growth proxy, yielding an estimated current market size ≈ $1.38B * 30% = $0.414B and a CAGR ~8.5%.
Residential and small business network security
Estimate based on ResearchAndMarkets monitored-system counts for Europe and North America (37.2M NA + 19.6M EU ≈ 56.8M active monitored alarms at end-2024). Applying a conservative annual ARPU of ~$150 (monitoring/subscription and modest device/service revenue) yields ≈$8.5B annual market for residential and small-business network/security services in these regions. Growth potential set to ~4.0% CAGR derived from a weighted average of reported monitored-alarm CAGRs (North America 3.5%, Europe 4.6%) with modest upside from managed/security service trends (higher CAGRs reported for related MSS and assessment markets).
- There were an estimated 37.2 million active monitored alarm systems in the US and Canada at the end of 2024.
- In the EU27+3, there were about 19.6 million active monitored alarm systems at the end of 2024.
- Growing at a CAGR of 3.5%, the number of monitored alarms in North America is estimated to reach 44.1 million in 2029.
- The number of monitored home and small business alarms in Europe is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.6%, to reach 24.5 million alarm systems in 2029.
- Global Managed Security Services Market is valued at USD 48.37 Billion in 2026 and expected to reach USD 86.13 Billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 8.59%.
- Market Size (2026) USD 5.15 Billion; Growth Rate (2026 - 2031) 5.78%.
- The North America Physical Security Market was valued at $11511.7 Million in 2025 and projected to reach $14614.5 Million by 2030, CAGR 4.9%.
DNS privacy and resolver management
Search results do not include an explicit market size for DNS privacy/resolver management. I used reported IoT device growth and increasing DNS security/regulatory pressure to infer demand growth, together with broader security/GRC software market growth as a proxy for enterprise security spend. Rapid increase in connected devices (IDC / arXiv) and DNS being a primary attack vector (EfficientIP, DigiCert) support a niche managed/resolver privacy market in the low-single‑billion USD range today, with above‑market growth driven by encrypted DNS (DoH/DoT), resolver management, and enterprise privacy/compliance requirements.
