Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM) Market

The global CIEM market size is projected to grow from USD 1.2 billion in 2023 to USD 7.5 billion by 2028 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 44.2% during the forecast period.

The expansion of the CIEM market is propelled by the rise in inadequate management of identity, access, and privileges that have heightened the demand for robust CIEM solutions, which can effectively combat these evolving risks. The pressing need to overcome the challenge of the lack of awareness of cloud resources, cloud security architecture, and strategy have prompted organizations to adopt CIEM solutions.

Government regulations and the imperative for compliance have also played a significant role in adopting CIEM solutions as businesses strive to meet security requirements and protect sensitive data. Additionally, the rapid proliferation of technology, such as IoT/ AI, which is also increasing cyberattacks, necessitates implementing CIEM solutions to detect and respond to emerging threats proactively. Together, these factors form a powerful force behind the growth and advancement of the CIEM market.
