Security Software Market

Security is one of the key strategic tasks managed by IT departments throughout the globe. Organizations in general are becoming ever more reliant on technology and the Internet, with company data needing to be accessed, shared, and used more quickly by a greater diversity of employees, suppliers and customers. With the ascending growth and sophistication of security breaches in the last few years, strict compliance and unified security packages are in demand to protect the huge confidential data of government, military, public utilities, Banking, Financial Services, & Insurance (BFSI), hospitals, and other businesses.

The Bring-Your-Own-Device trend (BYOD) and evolving IT security threats are driving the strong growth in the security software market. Spending on security software is also influenced by the evolution of new threats and working practices. Growing demand for remote access requires organizations to safeguard off-premises applications and data, as well as an array of new client devices. In addition, the rapid adoption of virtualization in the Small and Medium Business (SMB) market is driving the interest in security solutions targeting virtual environments.

Market expansion and innovation are driven partly as a result of new start-up players entering the market. New players bring innovative technology solutions to cater to end-user requirements, which, in turn, are created as a result of the new threats, often introduced by cyber criminals taking advantage of new vulnerabilities created by changes to IT ecosystems. Thus, security continues to be a top priority across all technology categories in the SMB market.

The security software market is growing due to evolving trends such as adoption of smart devices and BYOD. In recent times, organizations are increasingly investing and adopting security software because of the increasing security threats and data breaches.
