Global Network Security Testing Market 2020 - Increased Adoption of DDoS Protection and Mitigation Solutions Powering the Market

Future Market Prospects Enhanced by Growth Opportunities in 5G Deployments and Hyperscale Cloud Data Centers

The global network security testing industry generated $626.5 million in revenues in 2020, and is estimated to reach $1.13 billion by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 12.5%.

Organizations’ traditional attack surfaces have grown in size due to the many physical and virtual network environments and traffic volume. There is a new network reality with increasing complexity that organizations need to consider due to open and virtual architectures, multi-cloud scale including hybrid clouds, a mix of applications, global access, and outsourced data centers.

Cloud and high-speed Ethernet continue to drive the network security testing market growth. There is a rising need to validate the cloud-scale and the traffic and test between different cloud deployments, web servers, and database servers validating those test scenarios. Companies are looking for simple security solutions. However, the increasing complexity of cyber threats is driving the demand for more sophisticated security testing mechanisms.

5G will present a huge opportunity for vendors. Still, it is paramount to balance network capabilities with robust security features, as the switching between networks may compromise confidentiality and integrity.

Tomorrow's businesses will require security test solutions that can corroborate network devices’ quality. Organizations will continue relying on a wide range of security solutions to handle all verification of encrypted or non-encrypted network capacity to protect their networks from cyber occurrences.
