Global Security Policy Management Market – Analysis and Forecast (2023-2030)
Component (Solution and Services), Organization Size (Large Enterprises and Small & Medium Enterprises), Application (Network Policy Management, Compliance and Auditing, Change Management, and Vulnerability Assessment), Industry (IT & Telecom, Healthcare, BFSI, Manufacturing, Energy & Power, Government, and Others)

Industry Overview

The Global Security Policy Management Market size is anticipated to reach USD 3.2 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period. The process of implementing, identifying, and administering the rules and procedures that all individuals must follow when accessing and using an organization's IT assets and resources is known as security policy management. These network security policies are intended to address security risks and execute measures to mitigate IT security vulnerabilities, as well as determine how to recover from a system compromise or network intrusion. Employees are also given directions on what to do and what not to do; thereby allowing legitimate traffic without sacrificing security breaches or compliance desecrations. They also specify who has access to what assets and resources, as well as the consequences of failing to follow the rules.

Security Policy Management Market Highlights

Security policy management software provides a set of tools that assist systems in maintaining compliance and enforcing network security and firewall regulations. These technologies aid in the creation and documentation of network security management and automating operational workflows. Auditing networks, documenting policy changes, and automating security operations are all tools included in the NSPM software. Companies utilize NSPM software to keep their network policies compliant while ensuring the security of their endpoints, data, and networks. These tools aid in the identification and removal of redundant or obsolete security rules, as well as the simplification of security operations. Thus, it proactively automates the network security management process across cloud, SDNs, and on-premise firewalls.

The COVID-19 outbreak has led to a negative impact on the security policy management market owing fall in global commodity prices and the complexity to connect electronic components. However, post the COVID-19 crisis, the surge in demand for networking and travel, rising demand for smart infrastructure, and increased adoption of robotic applications and sensor-based devices, will lead to tremendous growth in the security policy management market during the forecast period.

Market Segmentation

Insight by Component

On the basis of components, the security policy management market is bifurcated into solutions and services. Professional and managed services are two types of services in the services segment. Among these components, the solution segment captures a higher market share and is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period owing to the rising demand among businesses to efficiently secure internal and external infrastructure and protect critical business information from spam, malware, Trojan, phishing, etc. Thus, companies are using security policy management solutions to protect data within networks and ensure compliance with industry standards.

Insight by Organization Size

On the basis of organization size, the security policy management market is bifurcated into large enterprises and small & medium enterprises (SMEs). Large enterprises, who are more concerned about data security and spend more on security and compliance implementation, accounted for the largest share of the security policy management market.

However, the SME sector is quickly expanding and is likely to acquire a significant portion of the security policy management market in the coming years owing to the rising penetration of cloud-based platforms and the adoption of mobile devices which aids in protecting confidential data and offers simplified security operations within an enterprise.

Insight by Application

On the basis of application, the security policy management market is categorized into network policy management, compliance and auditing, change management, and vulnerability assessment. Of all these applications, the network policy management segment accounted for the largest proportion of the security policy management market, owing to rising complexities in network infrastructure and cross-communication within organizations.

Insight by Industry

The market is divided into IT & telecom, healthcare, BFSI, manufacturing, energy & power, government, and others based on industry. BFSI contributes the largest share in the security policy management market owing to the massive amount of sensitive and private financial data, requiring security policy management solutions. Furthermore, the industry is highly regulated and complies with security requirements.

IT and telecom are anticipated to have significant growth during the forecast period due to the rising number of networking and cross-communication in the IT industry vertical.

Industry Dynamics

Industry Trends

The increased shift from a homogenous model to a hybrid network model owing to increased emphasis on digitalization, use of wireless network infrastructure, and compliance with industry standards and government mandates are the trends prevalent in the security policy management industry.

SPM platforms assist in managing policy changes by providing change tracking, version control, and approval workflows. These features ensure that policy modifications are properly authorized, documented, and communicated.

Growth Drivers

Rising number of cyberattacks as well as optimization solutions to effectively handle sophisticated network settings

Security policy management solutions include methods for automatically identifying vulnerabilities and hazards, auditing, and provisioning security adjustments based on the security needs of the enterprise. Information and applications exchanged via an unencrypted network can lead to phishing, malware, and spyware attacks. Furthermore, increased investments by the defense sector owing to rising geopolitical tension and increased prominence in the commercial sector owing to cross-communication and data exchange will further have a positive outlook on the market demand for security policy management. Thus, security policy management provides application-layer security among several industry verticals which include BFSI, IT & telecom, government, retail, etc.

The security policy management market is driven by the increasing complexity of IT environments, growing regulatory requirements, and the need to mitigate cybersecurity risks. Organizations across various sectors, including banking, healthcare, government, and e-commerce, rely on these solutions to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of their critical assets.

 Challenges

The security policies of many associations and governments are constantly updated, making it difficult for vendors and users to adhere to a single and uniform standard. Also, in some regions, a lack of awareness about cyber threats, lack of specialized skills, less availability of network security policy management solutions, massive initial investment, and increased prices of hardware and software are some other factors limiting market growth and will continue to pose a challenge to the security policy management market during the forecast period.

Opportunities

Technological development, increased focus to modernize the software, and surge in R&D activities to develop highly preventive safety policies and guidelines according to regulatory agencies will accelerate market opportunities in the security policy management industry during the forecast period.

Geographic Overview

Geographically, North America contributes to the largest share in the security policy management market as they are an early adopter of the technology, increased adoption of cloud-based services, rising number of cyber-attacks, especially in the BFSI and healthcare industry, increased inclination toward hybrid network model, and a large number of IT companies residing in the region. Moreover, the region is relying on implementing security regulations and compliance, thus North America's security policy management market will keep on growing in the years to come.

Furthermore, due to the adoption of firewalls and other advanced security features to identify and prevent threats only in the initial phase, APAC and Europe hold the second and third largest security policy management market positions, respectively.
