The global security testing market size is projected to grow from USD 14.5 billion in 2024 to USD 43.9 billion by 2029 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 24.7% during the forecast period. The sophistication and frequency of cyberattacks are rising, forcing enterprises to proactively detect and address vulnerabilities, which is driving the expansion of security testing. In addition, frequent security testing must ensure compliance and protect sensitive data due to strict regulatory requirements such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS further fuels the market growth.
What is the security testing?
According to MarketandMarkets, “Security testing is an activity to identify vulnerabilities in software, hardware, and services by using highly automated tools or through manual attacks by skilled information security practitioners. It assists organizations to maintain integrity, confidentiality, availability, authentication, authorization, and non-repudiation of sensitive information.”
