The Porter’s five forces analysis is a model, which analyzes the competitive scenario of the industry and role of each stakeholder. The five forces include the bargaining power of buyers, the bargaining power of suppliers, the threat of new entrants, the threat of substitutes, and the level of competitive rivalry. The threat of new entrants is relatively low due to the high capital requirements, specialized knowledge, and the need for strong industry partnerships. This creates a barrier to entry, favoring existing players. The bargaining power of suppliers is moderate due to the presence of several solution and service providers in the market. Buyers, on the other hand, hold significant bargaining power, as they have a wide range of options to choose from, and the switching costs are relatively low. The threat of substitutes is limited due to the presence of limited alternatives to comprehensive OT security solutions. The competitive rivalry is intense due to the presence of several players competing for market share, leading to constant innovation and price competition.
