Social networking and file sharing applications are widely used in Middle Eastern organizations, with Facebook and Twitter consuming over 70% of social networking bandwidth. On average, organizations have 19 social networking applications and 18 file sharing applications. While many applications only use port 80, over 80% of bandwidth is consumed by applications not using port 80, showing the need to monitor more than just port 80 traffic.

Palo Alto Networks Application Usage and Risk Report - Key Findings for Middle East
- 1. Five Facts About Application Usage on Enterprise Networks in the Middle East (Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE) Application Usage and Risk Report December 2011
- 3. Average number of social networking applications per organization? A total of 55 different social networking applications were found in 97% of the 37 participating organizations with an average of 19 found on each network.
- 5. Which application is used more heavily? Based on the percentage of social networking bandwidth consumed, Facebook consumed 52% of the bandwidth while Twitter consumed a 21%.
- 6. Facebook dominates. Active social networking application (plugins, games, posting) usage patterns are similar to those seen globally.
- 8. Average number of browser-based filesharing applications per organization? A total of 46 different browser-based filesharing applications were found in 95% of the 37 participating organizations with an average of 18 in each.
- 9. Browser-based filesharing use cases: work or entertainment. Both uses have a common set of business and security risks that organizations must address.
- 11. The number of applications using Port 80 (tcp/80) only? The number of applications that ONLY use Port 80 is 189 or 28% of the 674 applications found in the participating organizations.
- 13. Percentage of total bandwidth consumed by applications not using tcp/80? A whopping 81% of the total bandwidth is being consumed by 270 (40% of 674) applications that DO NOT USE port 80 at all. Ever.
- 14. Port 80 only security is shortsighted. The common perception is that Port 80 (tcp/80) is where all the traffic and all the problems are. A port 80 emphasis is an absolute requirement; but too much focus is shortsighted.
