Cloud Sandboxing Global Market Report 2024

Cloud sandboxing is a security measure employed in cloud computing to isolate and assess potentially harmful files or code within a controlled environment. This technique enables the safe testing of files, URLs, and code, ensuring any potential threats are contained and unable to compromise the actual system or network.

The primary types of cloud sandboxing include standalone and integrated sandboxes. A standalone sandbox operates independently within an isolated environment, running programs or applications without impacting the rest of the system. These solutions cater to organizations of varying sizes, including large enterprises, small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and are applied across sectors such as government and defense, banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), information technology (IT) and telecommunications, healthcare, retail, education, among others.

This cloud sandboxing market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.

The cloud sandboxing market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.23 billion in 2023 to $2.64 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.5%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, the increased deployment of cloud sandboxing solutions in the education sector, widespread adoption of cloud sandboxing across various industries, the necessity to secure enterprise networks from advanced malware and security breaches, advancements in attacking techniques, and the expanding attack surface due to increasing digitization and adoption of cloud technologies.

The cloud sandboxing market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.27 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several key factors, increasing demand for cloud sandboxing solutions in government and defense applications, rising need for cloud sandboxing in the banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) sector, growing adoption of cloud sandboxing in the IT and telecommunications industry, surge in cloud sandboxing usage for healthcare applications, and the expanding market for cloud sandboxing in the retail industry. Major trends expected in this period include the demand for integrated solutions and Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW) that combine the power of sandboxing, adoption of cloud services, IoT, smartphones, and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), increased adoption of cloud-based security solutions, implementation of DevSecOps and cloud-native security practices, and the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) for threat detection and response. These trends are shaping the evolution of cloud sandboxing technologies to address advanced security challenges across various sectors.

The cloud sandboxing market is poised for growth driven by the increasing prevalence of cyber threats. Cyber threats encompass malicious activities aimed at damaging or disrupting digital data and services, exacerbated by factors such as rapid digitalization, inadequate cybersecurity measures, and governance gaps. Cloud sandboxing plays a pivotal role in mitigating these threats by offering a secure and isolated environment to analyze and test suspicious code, files, and URLs. This technology is instrumental in detecting and preventing various cyber threats, including malware and ransomware. For example, the Australian Cyber Security Centre reported a significant rise in cybercrime reports in 2022, underscoring the imperative for enhanced cybersecurity measures and driving demand in the cloud sandboxing market.

Leading companies in the cloud sandboxing sector are innovating with advanced solutions, such as AI-powered security services, to effectively manage risks and safeguard sensitive information. These AI-powered services enable swift responses to emerging threats through immediate alerts and automated threat-hunting scripts, accelerating detection and remediation timelines. For instance, Fortinet, a US-based cybersecurity firm, launched FortiOS 7.2 in April 2022, which includes AI-powered security services enhancing its Security Fabric platform. This update features an inline sandbox that transforms traditional detection capabilities into real-time in-network prevention, effectively halting both known and unknown malware threats. FortiOS 7.2 also introduces AI-driven FortiGuard security services and integrates seamlessly across network, endpoint, and cloud environments for comprehensive protection against cyber threats.

In November 2022, Palo Alto Networks, another US-based cybersecurity leader, acquired Cider Security for $195 million. This acquisition strengthens Palo Alto Networks' position in the cloud security market by integrating Cider Security's advanced capabilities into its Prisma Cloud platform. Cider Security, headquartered in Israel, specializes in cloud sandboxing solutions, enhancing Palo Alto Networks' ability to deliver a robust code-to-cloud security solution to its customers.
