The global cloud security market is predicted at USD 46.32 billion in the year 2023 and is expected to grow to USD 88.40 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 13.8% during the forecast period.
Cloud security means a secure system, or a collection of security measures designed to protect cloud-based infrastructure, data, and applications. In simple words, it is a discipline of cyber security that keeps the data safe and secure, and it also includes best practices that keep the cloud computing environment stable. The growth in the Global Cloud Security Market was fuelled by several factors such as rising cybercrimes, cyber espionage campaigns, and rising demand for the usage of cloud-based services and solutions.
Cloud-based services help to monitor large quantities of data and structured information. The adoption of cloud technology can satisfy this data monitoring in a secure surroundings. Due to the shift in the working pattern because of Covid-19, the demand for cloud-based services has skyrocketed. All the major cyber security concerns can be taken care of by moving to a cloud-based computing service. Major players such as IBM, Amazon, and Google use cloud computing services based on ‘analytics as a service’ offerings which assists the end-users in quickly tracing and controlling uncertain threats. Besides, these services can be deployed quickly with low IT infrastructure requirements and low installation costs and provides ease of access to the end-users.
There is a lack of clarity and distrust between the Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) and the large and small organizations. As a result, they are reluctant to collaborate with CSPs. The distrust can be attributed to the lack of clarity in Service Level Agreements (SLAs), standard terms and conditions, and many myriad issues. The companies have a lot of confidential data stored through these services, there is always a fear of data loss/leakage and unauthorized access to security platforms. Hence, the distrust amplifies. Following an information security approach that would be transparent could enable enterprises to gain the trust of their clients. Well-laid-out terms and conditions and a clear and concise SLA could help in garnering faith from their clients and improve the collaboration rate between the parties. Other challenges include the budgetary constraints of the enterprises to adopt such practices. Also, with the expansion of the R&D team the expenditure of security solution providers increases.

Out of all these, Web and Email Security has the largest share due to the companies accepting cloud-based services to protect the business organizations. Advanced threats, such as ransomware, APTs, malware, and unauthorized access have necessitated the use of these services by the web and email security segment.
Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), is expected to account for the largest market share in the forecast period since it provides security facilities and backup in its infrastructure to the companies.
Out of these Identity and Access Management (IAM) is the fastest-growing market because there is increased adoption of cloud-based services and safety concerns due to the rise in the count of host-specific attacks.
The Hybrid Cloud model is the fastest-growing segment in this category due to the implementation of a multi-tier approach for protection based upon interwoven security information, and event management (SIEM) products within the service mesh.
The retail segment is forecasted to show the maximum growth due to various reasons such as higher implementation of AI without having to follow a standard checkout line and protection of sensitive data in a digital format associated with each customer being stored in the cloud.
Small and Medium Enterprises are forecasted to account for the largest market share, due to shifting from traditional computing services to cloud computing services, due to the growth in the private segment.
The increased urbanization, the paradigm shift from traditional computing solutions to the integration with onsite, public, and hybrid cloud security services and the attendance of significant vendors in the world are the prime factors promoting the accelerated use of these services.
North America holds the biggest share amongst all the other regions in the world. It has sustainable and well-established economies, which empower it to invest significantly in Research and Development (R&D) activities, thereby contributing to the development of new technologies in the Global Cloud Security Market. The presence of the majority of the key players in the Global Cloud Security Market is expected to be the major factor driving the growth of the market in this region.
