The market is primarily driven by the rising demand for technologies to secure cloud data, stringent laws and compliance, and rising dangers to business information owing to the usage of technologies such as big data analytics, AI, and machine learning (ML). On the other side, the global market's expansion is being hampered by an organization's tolerance for discomfort and security issues brought on by internal weaknesses.
Moreover, the rising data breaches increasing opportunities for data-centric security vendors which are driving the market growth over the forecast period. Due to a surge in data breach activities, businesses frequently have to compromise critical information about their operations. Critical data is still exposed despite significant investments in infrastructure and data protection linked to privacy.
According to the International Association of Privacy Professionals report in January 2022, 1,862 breaches were reported in 2018, breaking the previous high of 1,506 breaches set in 2017 by 68%. Last year, there were 5% fewer people affected overall, which ITRC ascribed to cybercriminals changing their attention away from large-scale data theft and toward more targeted, focused attacks.
In Addition, according to the IBM report in 2019, seven billion of the 8.5 billion data compromised in 2019 or more than 85% were the result of incorrectly configured cloud servers and other technologies. Instead of securing IT infrastructure, which contains less crucial data, data-centric security solutions assist enterprises in protecting their most sensitive information. The data-centric security services allow for providing security for cloud technology and other systems while also safeguarding sensitive data in the documents and databases that comprise data security-centric solutions. The data on the cloud is one of the main things that businesses need to be worried about. In the future years, the rise in data breaches within organizations will cause the adoption of data-centric security solutions.
The COVID-19 epidemic has altered digital technology usage and remote working practices. For the first time, millions of workers are working from home. As a result, businesses must move their assets to the cloud and digital platforms while also adopting the necessary security precautions, such as perimeter security and network protection. Due to the rise in data breaches caused by the pandemic, businesses increased their security spending and used data-centric solutions to safeguard data.
Consequently, COVID-19 has a favorable effect on the market. In the near future, this is anticipated to drive the global market indirectly. Additionally, the global market for data-centric security is expanding quickly due to the impending threat of data breaches, compliance requirements, and emerging attack vectors.
