Industrial Cybersecurity Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Security Type (Application Security, Cloud Security, Data Security), Deployment Type (Cloud, On-Premise), Organization Size (Large, SMEs) and By Geography

Industrial Cybersecurity Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Security Type (Application Security, Cloud Security, Data Security), Deployment Type (Cloud, On-Premise), Organization Size (Large, SMEs) and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Industrial Cybersecurity Market is accounted for $15.81 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $22.41 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period. Industrial Cybersecurity is defined as a pool of technologies, software, and services to protect several components of the industrial infrastructure, including Field Controllers, Remote Terminal Units (RTUs), Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Safety Instrument Systems, Data Historian, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA ) servers, Human-Machine Interface (HMIs), Engineering Workstations, Network Connections, and people from external threats and disruptions without hindering the operational continuity and the consistency of industrial processes.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing Implementation of AI-based Industrial Robots

Due to the rising adoption of cloud-based industrial Control Systems (ICS)-as-a-service and industrial robots based on artificial intelligence platforms, amid industrial and engineering plants. Cybersecurity solutions are installed across industrial robots to secure them from cyber-attacks and make them run smoothly. According to the International Federation of Robotics, there were around a thousand industry robots deployed across the automotive industry, a thousand deployed across the electronic industry, and a thousand deployed across the metal and mining industry worldwide. According to the Robotic Industries Association (RIA) report, in 2018, around 422,000 units of industry robots shipped globally. With the growth in the adoption of industrial robots, the market is expected to boost during the forecast period.

Restraint:

Lack of Awareness and lack of professionals

The majority of the end-users are unacquainted with its services in emerging countries across the Asia Pacific, Middle East, Africa, and South America. Besides, the lack of professionals to build and operate industrial cyber security solutions across the developing countries, where cyber-attacks are increasing is expected to hamper the growth of the market. With the advancement of technologies, new threats have been created by security hackers. These new threats are quite complicated for traditional cyber security solutions to identify and mitigate.

Opportunity:

Stringent Releasing Rules and Regulations for Security of Industrial Control Systems

Several government organizations such as the Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team (ICS-CERT) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are continuously releasing security guidelines, rules and regulations, and standards for the security of industrial control systems. NIST has also introduced many security standards and guidelines that are commonly used to secure traditional IT systems. Some most prominent security standards applicable for industrial control systems are the ISA/IEC 62443 and the NIST SP 800-82. NCCIC and ICS-CERT save control system environments from emerging cyber threats. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and ICS-CERT has incorporated the Industrial Control Systems Joint Working Group (ICSJWG) to enable information sharing and reduce threats related to industrial systems.

Threat:

Lack of Consciousness & Criticality of Cyber Security

The industrial sector implements modern security technologies to prevent cyberattacks, but attackers develop new techniques and procedures to infiltrate these technologies. Investments in security defence and detection technologies help develop effective defence strategies; however, human errors are one of the key reasons for most breaches. These errors take place due to the lack of awareness among employees, which is putting the industrial sector at risk. Advanced cyber threats that are diverse in nature target particular vulnerabilities in networks and use these vulnerabilities to get an entry into enterprise networks. Advanced cyber threats have significantly increased over the last few years and have become a major security concern for the industrial sector. Additionally to implementing appropriate hardware and software-based protection tools, employee training should also be considered equally critical to completely secure industrial facilities from cyberattacks or cyber threats. Every employee who is a part of an organization poses a threat to the security in case of non-awareness of the associated risks. This makes cybersecurity training a critical factor for professionals to understand, identify, and avoid future threats before escalation. Training will also allow the workforce to practice safe business duties at the workplace. The figure provided below indicates some most sophisticated attacks on the ICS network.

Energy and Power segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The energy and power industry is the most vulnerable to cyber-attacks, and as a result, it will account for the largest market share throughout the projection period. Increased digitalization in the energy and power sector has resulted in numerous economic benefits, including increased efficiency in energy usage reduction, faster processing, and so on.

The cloud security segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Cloud security consists of many policies, procedures, technologies, and controls that protect the cloud-based system, data, and infrastructure from cyber threats and ensure compliance with the standards. Cloud security can be configured according to business requirements; it reduces manual configurations and administration overheads. Manufacturing companies are moving their data and operations to cloud applications to gain efficiency and agility. With the rapid adoption of SaaS applications and other cloud-based services, the popularity of cloud security solutions has increased significantly. Cloud security addresses both physical and virtual security across different service models of software, platform, and infrastructure. It is mainly implemented in governance, data protection, data encryption, endpoint control, IDS/IPS, vulnerability scanning, and IAM applications.

Region with highest share:

The Asia Pacific is projected to hold the highest market share. Asia Pacific comprises emerging economies such as China and India. These countries have the presence of a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which collectively account for the employment of more than 70% of the total population in the countries. These SMEs provide growth opportunities to the providers of industrial cyber security solutions and services to customers from the manufacturing, transportation, and energy industries. Additionally, factors such as the increasing complexity of businesses, the growing trend of BYOD, as well as the rapid shift toward digitization and virtualization, are expected to encourage SMEs to adopt various industrial control solutions and services.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America is projected to have the highest CAGR. As the province is a fast-growing market in the advancements in technology. The operations of manufacturing and also the infrastructure. The innovative technologies of the early adopter and the home to a larger number of the providers of solutions have seen the growth of the market in this province. The province has also been expected to grow in the coming years and is expected to further grow in the next few years too in North America.
