The Database Security Solutions Sub-Segment is Anticipated to Hold a Considerable Share of the Global Database Security Market

Among the component, the database security solutions sub-segment is expected to hold a considerable share of the market. The database security solution focuses on the core requirements of data protection, which are encryption, access control, and threat detection. These functionalities form the fundamental layer of defense against unauthorized access, data breaches, and malware infections. The database security solutions provide a diverse range of tools and features, which spans data masking, tokenization, vulnerability assessments, intrusion detection, and activity monitoring. Database security solutions can be scaled to accommodate varying data volumes and user bases, from small enterprises to large enterprises. Advanced solutions employ machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) for threat, detection, and prevention. This proactive technique helps identify and block sophisticated attacks before they cause damage, making them invaluable for organizations facing evolving cyber threats.

In January, 2023 the healthcare data breach at UCHealth was checked from a third-party vendor, and the UCLA Health breach was tied to the organization’s use of analytics tools. UCHealth in Aurora, Colorado reported a third-party data breach to HHS that impacted 48,879 individuals. UCLA Health notified 94,000 individuals of a recent healthcare data breach stemming from its use of analytics tools, such as tracking pixels.

Regional Outlook

The global database security market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).
