Aviation Cyber Security Global Market Report 2024

The aviation cyber security market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.71 billion in 2023 to $5.1 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.3%. The expansion witnessed in the historical period can be credited to several factors, including heightened cyber threats within the aviation sector, amplified reliance on digital technologies, the imposition of regulatory compliance mandates, the imperative need to safeguard sensitive data, and the impact of significant cybersecurity incidents that garnered widespread attention.

The aviation cyber security market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.75 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The projected growth in the upcoming period is expected to stem from the ongoing evolution of cyber threats, the continued expansion of connectivity within aviation systems, the global growth of the aviation industry, collaborative efforts aimed at bolstering cybersecurity resilience, and an increased emphasis on addressing insider threats. Key trends anticipated in the forecast period comprise a stronger emphasis on mitigating insider threats, adherence to regulatory compliance and cybersecurity standards, a rise in cybersecurity training initiatives, the integration of advanced threat hunting technologies, and the development of swift incident response capabilities.

The rising prevalence of cyber-attacks stands as a driving force behind the burgeoning aviation cybersecurity market. Cyber-attacks, aimed at breaching information technology systems for malicious purposes, pose threats by attempting unauthorized access, data corruption, or theft. In aviation, cybersecurity measures such as secure application architectures and rigorous validation protocols aim to thwart such attacks. Notably, according to AAG Cybersecurity, global cyber-attacks surged by 125% in 2021, underscoring the heightened demand for aviation cybersecurity solutions.

The upsurge in commercial aircraft deliveries is poised to propel the growth of the aviation cybersecurity market. Commercial aircraft, pivotal in transporting passengers and cargo, store and transmit sensitive data, making protection against cyber threats imperative. For instance, in 2022, Airbus SE delivered 661 commercial aircraft to 84 customers and recorded 1,078 gross new orders, marking an 8% increase from the previous year. This surge in deliveries underscores the escalating need for robust cybersecurity measures in aviation.

Evolution in aviation security solutions emerges as a prominent trend shaping the aviation cybersecurity market. Major industry players are investing in advanced technologies to fortify their market presence.
