US Security Testing Market Outlook to 2028

Market Overview:

The US Security Testing Market is one of the largest markets overviewing the security and testing facilities in multiple companies, owing a high digitized profile and high priority data collection, leading them to be a prime target to cybersecurity threats. Owing to the large fractions of hackers and malware content, stringent regulatory compliances like the HIPA, has been set in order for the companies to abide by strict rules and norms.

The adoption of cloud-based services and environment, IoT devices and other such vast ranged devices are easily being scanned and checked for any vulnerabilities or any other false positives/negatives. This is done by multiple staged scans at the development stages itself, making the program searching for the treat in its creation period. With higher cyber threats, Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 has been started which is a broader and stronger version of the CSF 1.0, allowing multiple authentication checks, checks on any backdoor entry and multiple checks on each software. Along with this, Penetration Testing has come up to rise up to the challenge and make promising efforts towards the elimination of threats and thefts and together with the Cloud services, from mobile devices, IoT devices and others having cloud function within, can be scanned at various levels daily.

US Security Testing Market Analysis

The increasing amount of frequency and severity of the cyberattacks, has already invoked cybersecurity concerns over the industries over the US.

With this, rises much stricter regulatory compliances which are protection acts for data, such as GDPR, HIPA etc., along with industry specific norms and rules, driving the demand of security testing in every companies.

The migration to cloud-based services, has led to a great range of detection and acting on vulnerabilities, but also needs to be kept a close eye on as the security inside the cloud important must be kept in check simultaneously.

With the Application Security Testing, namely Dynamic Application Security Testing and Static Application Security Testing (DAST and SAST), identifying the root point of origination of the vulnerabilities are becoming clearer day by day. Now with the updraft of penetration testing, IoT devices associated with Connected Services and other devices having the cloud environment within them can be tested by scanning multiple times.

Key Trends by Market Segment:

By Type of Security: The market is segmented on its type of security as application and network type of securities. Among the variations, the application security testing prevails more as because of the availability of a greater number of things which needs to be secured, rather than traditional ones. Application Security Testing are currently making the market flow, with two major components namely, Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) and Static Application Security Testing (SAST), which have stronger encryption protocols and maintain multiple checks through the software.

By End-User Industry: Wider requirement in the Financial, Governmental and most importantly Healthcare, has been overserved over the years. In these sectors, security testing is a must for every individual, even among the hierarchy chain, leading to a secured network of data and authentications. This industry has been in at its core striving to greater security availability in these areas where security is a priority for every individual present. With the strong AI based automated security testing protocols and stringent regulatory compliances, stronger encrypted databases have been kept in order to turn down any malignant spyware or backdoor entries with ease.

By Regional Split: The Eastern regions of America are heavily populated by Government agencies, defense contractors and Financial Sectors. These areas require a lot of security without which theft and digital laundering is possible in matter of seconds. This is why these areas are heavily monitored by the security testing providers. In the Eastern Regions are filled with heavy duty technology hubs and sectors like Silicon Valley in San Francisco, Los Angeles etc. which are constantly required to be kept in check with the workflow of the software and be ready for any impending danger to the mainframe. In the central region and southern region, some of which the previous regions are reigning on, apart from which central regions like Austin, Texas is practically known for its strength in energy industry which requires only recruited and trained official to handle their jobs, making sure no offset of imminent danger.

Competitive Landscape:

With multiple types of securities, with multiple challenges, the security testing service providers like IBM Security, HP Enterprise (HPE), Accenture, Cognizant, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Verizon Enterprise Solutions, Deloitte and many more are always on the run, linked to companies via connected devices (having cloud environment), watching over any breach in encryption and calling out problems to be quickly sought out.

With over thousands of testing tool, penetration testing has come out to be on the top, with 70% of the major players are exercising this type of security testing to secure it from a developmental stage.

Upgradation to technology has also led changes to this market. By the adoption of Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 (CSF 2.0), multiple to many scanning can be done with this singular mainframe, working as the beacon of security testing digitally. With its connection to google cloud services, it can be used to scan wide range of applications.

Several regions in the US are heavily using this security testing system are making complete data check on each scan and reports. Detailed data in the servers connected through the cloud, has been able to save every record of work done, maintaining a proper authentication about the security test, managing a trustworthy engagement, making a permanent client. The leading players are currently holding their position in being used in almost all companies.

Recent Developments:

With the rise in cybersecurity threats, including the most malicious ones, are taking the focus of the company to these threats and their execution. This made their spark for change in infrastructure and working by 2022.

With the launched “two-factor authentication, many payment sites digitally were been able to be kept secured through their dual password program keeping their authentication check every time a user logs in through a new device.

With Application Security testing and IoT Security Testing being on a developmental stage yet showing promising results are among of some factors making the market growing each year heavily.

Post pandemic after global digitization, automation and introduction of Artificial Intelligence was introduced with the vision of improving the sector into a complete automated zone of testing.

Future Outlook:

The US Security Testing Market is growing every year with a successive change into their database and workflow, with an expected CAGR of ~18%, within the time period 2022 to 2028.

Major changes in technologies have been seen throughout the security testing market, with more complex and stringent regulatory compliances leading to a much more secure mainframe, handling multiple scans on the software.

With the newest CSF 2.0 (Cybersecurity Framework 2.0), it is evident that security testing market has undergone through many security alerts, which resulted in such an initiative. The CSF 1.0 was enough to take down most of the threats, but due to the sophistication of cybersecurity threats in nowadays, CSF 2.0 seems to be a perfect barrier for future threats as well as current newer ones.

With multiple bio-sensor fitter scanners keep a track of accurate data which can identify that person from a general data list of pre-saved information. These sensors have the ability to collect real-time scan reports and immediately scan them with previously saved data.

Penetration testing is a high-end security testing which is going to be needed for the giants in the IT sectors, financial and Government Sectors, where complications in security can lead to high damage to both personnel and information. In order to prevent this type of leaks, penetration testing tests the software on multiple basis from an early stage, rendering them if safe or not on a regular fashion.
