Lauren Guenveur — Sun, 20 Jun 2021 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC study forecasts 3G/4G/5G growth of notebook computers at the worldwide level, with splits between commercial and consumer and between United States and the rest of the world (ROW). This forecast is based on the May 2021 PCD forecast.

“The future of connected PCs remains bright,” says Lauren Guenveur, senior research analyst, IDC’s Devices team. “The COVID-19 crisis and the sudden boost in remote users highlighted many of the issues that could be absolved by using a 3G/4G/5G connected device. Even as the world returns to normalcy, the appetite for faster, more secure, and more ubiquitous connections remain. As 5G networks continue to light up throughout the world, IDC believes the appetite for connected PCs, specifically 5G connected PCs, will continue to grow.”

中国5G资本支出预测，2021–2025

Kai Cui — Sun, 20 Jun 2021 04:00:00 GMT

5G Datacom和5G Optical backhaul产品，作为5G网络建设的重要配套产品，一直是运营商持续完善的重要部分。“网络建设，承载网先行”，随着新的空口技术部署，无线网络流量必然快速增长，中国运营商早在2018年就已经提前布局数据转发和光传送网络建设，未来承载网投资也将随着网络流量的增长同步补强。

IDC 中国电信和物联网研究部高级研究经理崔凯表示：“展望未来，中国四大运营商（中国移动、中国电信、中国联通、中国广电）将保持5G网络投资的连续性，积极推动降低5G网络设备单价，探索5G应用商业模式，提升5G网络的ROI（Return on Investment，投资回报率）。5G网络的建设速度，取决于5G应用的发展速度。面向行业市场，数字经济高速发展，尤其新冠疫情后非接触式商业模式的兴起，5G将在产业数字化中扮演重要角色。面向消费者市场，找到5G“杀手级”应用，是5G建设爆发增长的前提条件。最后，加速5G技术和行业应用的融合，从而通过网络转型带动运营商业务转型，帮助运营商破除‘被管道化’的经营压力，同样也是5G建设的核心动力。”

The Biggest Investigation in U.S. History: The January 6, 2021, Capitol Riot

Alison Brooks, Ph.D. — Fri, 18 Jun 2021 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC Perspective discusses the question of striking the right balance between public safety and civil liberties in light of investigations made into the Capitol riots. Cascading failures in intelligence, leadership, and preparedness meant that the rioters who breached the Capitol simply exited the building and returned to their homes — in all 50 U.S. states. As a result, it has taken a large-scale, nationwide concerted effort to analyze the unprecedented volumes of digital evidence to identify and arrest the rioters.

The United States Department of Justice has called the investigation into the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot "[o]ne of the largest in American history both in terms of the number of defendants prosecuted and the volume of evidence."

According to Alison Brooks, research vice president, Worldwide Public Safety at IDC, "It is also likely one of the most complex investigations in U.S. history given the variety of digital evidence propagated by technological advances in social media, mobile communications, location-based apps and services, and digital platforms."

Worldwide and U.S. Device and Print Management Market Shares, 2020: Revenue Down as COVID-19 Closes Offices, Accelerates Digital Transformation

Geoffrey Wilbur, Robert Palmer — Fri, 18 Jun 2021 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC study provides the worldwide and U.S. market share data for the device management and print management markets for the calendar year 2020.

"COVID-19 quickly changed the landscape by reducing office MFP shipments and limiting sales of device and print management software in office settings. Vendors were able to mitigate revenue decline in 2020 by solving the challenges presented by newly remote workforces, providing document solutions with remote device monitoring and print/document security." — Geoffrey Wilbur, research manager, Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions group at IDC
