Retail is one of the sectors most vulnerable to cybersecurity risks. Retail companies are high-profile and contain a goldmine of consumer personal and financial information, which will be attractive to hackers. The biggest threat to retailers is that the personal consumer data they hold could be accessed by criminals unless state-of-the-art defenses are implemented.

Key Highlights

  • According to publisher forecasts, global security revenues in retail are headed for strong growth in the next few years, growing from $7 billion in 2019 to reach $12 billion by 2025
  • Any retailer who has incorporated digitalization into their business needs to ensure that they are protected, partnering with tech vendors who can secure their online platforms and payment systems
  • Key M&A deals related to cybersecurity
  • Leaders and laggards in retail for cybersecurity

Scope

Cybersecurity is one of the most important themes for retailers, especially since the rise of ecommerce or hybrid retailer models offering both in store and online services for consumers. Point-of-sale systems are the most vulnerable area to hackers seeking to gain sensitive consumer data, mostly involving finances. As more retailers implement digital platforms and incorporate technologies to offer more convenient shopping experiences they'll need to think more about their security systems. If not, they could be hit with huge fines for violating international laws, most notably the EU's GDPR.
