The risk management software market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $25.17 billion in 2024 to $26.73 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to regulatory compliance requirements, increasing cybersecurity threats, financial market volatility, globalization and supply chain risks, and high-profile risk incidents.

The risk management software market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $33.55 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increased focus on ESG (environmental, social, and governance) risks, emergence of new regulatory requirements, digital transformation initiatives, increased complexity of business operations, and heightened focus on resilience and business continuity. Major trends in the forecast period include adoption of artificial intelligence and machine learning, emphasis on real-time risk monitoring, expansion of risk quantification techniques, and focus on vendor and third-party risk management.

The growing frequency of security and data breaches is expected to drive the expansion of the risk management software market. Security breaches involve unauthorized access or actions that compromise the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of systems or information, while data breaches specifically relate to unauthorized access or acquisition of sensitive data. The increase in these incidents is attributed to factors such as greater dependence on digital systems, advanced cyberattacks, inadequate cybersecurity protocols, and human error. Risk management software is used to evaluate, prioritize, and address potential risks, track vulnerabilities, and implement proactive security measures to protect against cyber threats. For instance, in November 2023, the Australian Signals Directorate, a government agency, reported a rise in C2 incidents, from 2 in FY 2021-22 to 5 in FY 2022-23. This increase includes significant data breaches where cybercriminals stole data from critical infrastructure for financial gain. As a result, the growing number of security and data breaches is propelling the demand for risk management software.

Key players in the risk management software market are actively innovating to develop advanced security posture management (ASPM) solutions, enhancing cyber resilience and risk mitigation capabilities. ASPM solutions integrate platforms to orchestrate security policies, streamline application security testing, and manage vulnerabilities across multiple projects, teams, and security tools. For example, in August 2023, Synopsys Inc., a US-based electronic products and software applications provider, introduced Synopsys Software Risk Manager, an application security posture management (ASPM) solution. This robust solution simplifies and aligns application security testing across projects, teams, and tools, combining policy-driven test orchestration and vulnerability management with leading application security testing (AST) engines to optimize application security program ROI.
