Data Classification Market by Component (Solutions (Standalone and Integrated) and Services), Application (Access Control, GRC, Web, Mobile & Email Protection, and Centralized Management), Methodology, Vertical, and Region - Global Forecast to 2023
[174 Pages Report] MarketsandMarkets forecasts the global data classification market size to grow from USD 536 million in 2018 to USD 1,661 million by 2023, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 25.4% during 20182023. Major growth drivers for the market include regulatory compliance, growth in uncontrolled data volumes, and increased security risks.
In the data classification market by application, web, mobile and email protection application to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Data classification in web, mobile, and email protection is playing a crucial role, as the classification of data will help in determining baseline security controls for the protection of data. Data classification solution providers offer tools that provide a classification label on an email or document instantly alerts the user to the sensitivity of the information they are dealing with, immediately reducing the chance of inadvertent loss or mishandling. By providing users with simple-to-use tools that allow them to classify sensitive information and empower people across the organization to proactively improve information security.
In the data classification market by methodology, the user-based classification segment to hold the largest market size during the forecast period
User-based classification relies on manual, end-user selection. A user-based classification approach allows data owners to apply their knowledge to improve classification accuracy. User classification relies on the data owner to apply the tag to the document at creation, or after modification. Moreover, the user-based classification provides real-time alerts for potentially risky behavior allowing users to self-correct.
In the data classification market by solution, the standalone solution segment to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period
The solution segment is subsegmented into integrated and standalone solutions. Standalone solution providers offer best-of-breed data classification solutions to end users to categorize, label, and protect sensitive data. The solution providers enable organizations to better manage and control their data, streamline operational performance, and improve return on technology investment.
North America to hold the largest market size during the forecast period
North America is expected to hold the largest market size in the global data classification market, while APAC to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. In APAC, the highest growth rate can be attributed to the heavy investments made by private and public sectors for enhancing their marketing technologies, resulting in an increased demand for data classification solutions for data security and privacy. North America is expected to be the leading region in terms of adoption and development of the data classification solutions. Growing investments in data management strategies, presence of maximum number of data classification solution providers, and increasing government spending on analytics-based technologies are expected to contribute to the market growth during the forecast period.

The study consists of 4 major activities to estimate the current market size of the data classification market. An exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer market, and the parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with the industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both the top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. Thereafter, the market breakup and data triangulation procedures were used to estimate the market size of the segments and subsegments of the data classification market.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources, such as D&B Hoovers and Bloomberg BusinessWeek have been referred to for identifying and collecting information for this study. Secondary sources included annual reports; press releases and investor presentations of companies; whitepapers, certified publications, and articles by recognized authors; gold standard and silver standard websites; Research and Development (R&D) organizations; regulatory bodies; and databases.
Primary Research
Various primary sources from both supply and demand sides of the data classification market were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information for this study. The primary sources from the supply side included industry experts, such as Chief Executive Officers (CEOs), Vice Presidents (VPs), marketing directors, technology and innovation directors, and related key executives from various vendors of data classification solutions, associated service providers, and system integrators operating in the targeted regions. All possible parameters that affect the market covered in this research study have been accounted for, viewed in extensive detail, verified through primary research, and analyzed to get the final quantitative and qualitative data.
