Data-Centric Security Global Market Report 2024

The global data-centric security market has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $6.52 billion in 2023 to $8.35 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 28.0%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to incidents of data breaches, the imperative of regulatory compliance, the widespread proliferation of mobile devices, and escalating concerns regarding data privacy.

The global data-centric security market is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $22.03 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the adoption of zero-trust architecture, a heightened focus on endpoint security, the globalization of cybersecurity threats, the evolution of privacy regulations, an increased emphasis on automated response mechanisms, and growing concerns related to data sharing. Major trends in the forecast period encompass the implementation of data classification and discovery tools, the adoption of cloud-native security solutions, the utilization of data loss prevention (DLP) solutions, the integration of behavior analytics for threat detection, the implementation of continuous monitoring and auditing practices, and the increasing use of machine learning and artificial intelligence for threat intelligence.

The growth in data breach incidents is expected to drive the expansion of the data-centric security market during the forecast period. Data breaches involve unauthorized access to sensitive information or the unauthorized copying of confidential data, posing significant security threats to organizations. Notably, Fortune reported in October 2021 that the global number of data breach cases reached 1,291 in 2021, marking an increase from 1,108 in 2020. Cybercriminals predominantly utilize ransomware, contributing to a 17% rise in data breaches in 2021. The escalating incidents of data breaches underscore the critical need for data-centric security solutions to prevent data loss from organizational infrastructures, positioning data-centric security as a vital market driver.

The anticipated growth in IoT devices is set to propel the data-centric security market forward. IoT devices, equipped with sensors, software, and connectivity features, facilitate the collection, exchange, and transmission of data over the internet. The proliferation of IoT devices emphasizes the necessity for robust data-centric security solutions. As the IoT ecosystem expands, organizations recognize the importance of safeguarding the data generated by these devices, fostering demand for advanced security measures focused on protecting data at its core. According to Akamai Technologies Inc., IoT connections are projected to surge from 15.1 billion in 2021 to 23.3 billion in 2025. This increase in demand for IoT devices becomes a driving force for the growth of the data-centric security market.

Advancements in innovative technologies emerge as a key trend gaining traction in the data-centric security market. Major players in the market are actively developing innovative technologies to enhance data security across various industries. For example, Seclore, a US-based technology company, launched a data-centric security platform in June 2022. This platform aids organizations in discovering, classifying, protecting, and tracking enterprise data within and outside the organization. Additionally, the partnership between IBM and Palantir Technologies, announced in February 2021, introduces a hybrid cloud data platform by IBM, delivering AI for business with Palantir's next-generation operations platform for building applications. This collaborative effort aims to streamline the development and deployment of AI-infused applications, enabling users to access, analyze, and act on vast amounts of data scattered across hybrid cloud environments without requiring advanced technical skills.

Major companies operating in the data-centric security market are innovating with new technologies, exemplified by the introduction of Rubrik Ruby. Rubrik Ruby, a generative AI add-on for Rubrik Security Cloud, was launched by Rubrik in November 2023. It aims to enhance cyber resilience, cyber detection, and cyber recovery. This technology assists IT and security operations personnel in responding more adeptly to cyber threats by detecting unusual behavior in data across cloud, SaaS, and enterprise applications. Rubrik Ruby leverages best practices, knowledge gained from field experiences, and insights from ransomware recovery teams to expedite cyber detection, recovery, and resilience for organizations facing evolving cyber threats.
