Cyber Security Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Component, By Security Type, By Solution, By Services, By Deployment, By Organization Size, By Application, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2023 - 2030

Report Overview

The global cyber security market size was estimated at USD 202.72 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3% from 2023 to 2030. A growing number of cyber-attacks owing to the proliferation of e-commerce platforms, emergence of smart devices, and deployment of cloud are some key factors propelling market growth. Moreover, increasing usage of devices equipped with the Internet of Things (IoT) and intelligent technologies is expected to increase cases of cyber threats. As such, end-user organizations are anticipated to integrate advanced cyber security solutions to mitigate cyber-attack risk, supporting the market growth.

With cyber environment emerging as a highly integrated system, need for an adaptive, multi-layered, and self-learning security system has become imperative. In addition, factors such as emergence of mobile-networked devices, prevalence of electronic communications, growth of social media, and an increasing reliance on Big Data have created a need for defense cybersecurity system to be updated with the changing cyber threat scenario. Governments have increased their spending on cybersecurity solutions to protect devices and confidential data from cyberattacks, supporting market growth.

Advancements in emerging technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), big data analytics, IoT, 5G, edge computing, and cloud computing, are allowing market players to introduce new solutions based on these technologies, attract potential business clients, and expand their revenue streams. For instance, in June 2021, Broadcom Inc. launched Adaptive Protection, a new security solution, as a part of Symantec’s Endpoint Security Solution. The solution is powered by ML technology and provides customized and automated enhanced security on cyber-attacks while saving customers' overhead costs by leveraging the power of AI to customize the endpoint security.

Globally, several employees are anticipated to continue working from remote premises or homes. Choose Your Own Device (CYOD) and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) models allow employees to access business information through cloud platforms, making them vulnerable to data theft. Traditional cyber security solutions cannot protect devices from all forms of Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) or malware attacks, fueling demand for advanced cyber security solutions.

Stringent regulations being drafted by various governments regarding data security and privacy protection & compliance are particularly expected to drive demand for enterprise cybersecurity solutions. In April 2019, European Union adopted “EU Cybersecurity Act”, which introduces a system of certification schemes across Europe and also strengthens & revamps EU Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) and EU Agency for Cybersecurity.

Market Dynamics

Cyberattacks are getting more sophisticated, and losses stemming from cyberattacks are also increasing. While new networks are being rolled out and existing networks are being expanded, these networks are increasingly becoming vulnerable to cyber threats. Additionally, cyber crimes are rising in line with the proliferation of smartphones and connected devices. Mobile devices are particularly vulnerable to cyber threats as they lack adequate security mechanisms. Similarly, with smartphones becoming a preferred mode of social media interaction, individuals have become exposed to privacy invasion risks. Privacy threats are particularly increasing as intruders remain keen on acquiring individuals’ personal information.

Cloud technologies offer a wide array of benefits to telecom companies, such as helping in delivering a diverse set of applications and managing data. As such, several telecom companies are commercializing their respective “cloud as a user” services owing to cost flexibility associated with them and are also offering new solutions to their customers through cloud networks. Telecom companies are equally leveraging cloud platforms to develop new value propositions, which can potentially create new business models and enhance experience for subscribers. For instance, Etisalat and MTN Group have monetized their cloud offerings by providing a suite of cloud services that can potentially enable smaller businesses to scale up their operations.
