Government Cybersecurity Sector, United States, 2023–2028


Rising Geopolitical Tensions are Driving Transformational Growth

In this study, Frost & Sullivan analyzes the significant increase in US government cybersecurity spending, driven by escalating geopolitical tensions. As cyberspace transforms into a modern battleground for covert warfare, state-backed Advanced Persistent Threat groups are launching sophisticated cyber operations to infiltrate government networks, steal sensitive information, and disrupt essential services. The US government finds itself highly vulnerable due to its aging IT infrastructure and the rapid digitalization of its services.

This research examines the federal contracts for acquiring advanced cybersecurity tools, offering valuable insights for cybersecurity vendors looking to enter or expand their footprint in the government sector. It outlines the critical drivers, such as new regulatory compliance requirements as well as the restraints, including a shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals. By understanding these dynamics, vendors can align their solutions to meet the government's urgent need for robust, scalable, and adaptive cybersecurity measures. For vendors aiming to secure government contracts, this study provides a strategic roadmap to navigate the complexities of federal cybersecurity procurement, highlighting opportunities for growth in an increasingly critical and less concentrated market.

The study period is 2023–2028, with 2023 as the base year and 2024–2028 as the forecast period. Federal government agencies in focus are the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, Department of the Treasury, Department of Health and Human Services, General Services Administration, and other US agencies.
