Corporate Cyber Warfare Market Report 2025

The corporate cyber warfare market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $13.55 billion in 2024 to $15.26 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.7%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rise in state-sponsored cyberattacks, the increasing digitization of corporate assets, the expansion of cloud computing vulnerabilities, the absence of stringent cybersecurity regulations, and the growing use of ransomware in corporate espionage.

The corporate cyber warfare market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $24.24 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be credited to the expansion of AI-driven cyber defense systems, stricter government cybersecurity policies, rising geopolitical tensions impacting corporations, increased adoption of cyber insurance, and the advancement of zero-trust security frameworks. Key trends expected in this period include the adoption of AI-driven threat detection, advancements in zero-trust security frameworks, the development of quantum-resistant encryption, innovations in cyber defense automation, and the expansion of offensive cyber capabilities.

The increasing prevalence of cyber threats and attacks is expected to drive the growth of the corporate cyber warfare market. Cyber threats and attacks refer to risks posed to computers, networks, or data through hacking, viruses, or malware. These threats can steal sensitive information, disrupt systems, or damage critical files. As businesses become more reliant on digital systems, cloud computing, and online transactions, they become attractive targets for cybercriminals. With advancements in technology, cybercriminals are employing increasingly sophisticated methods to steal data, disrupt operations, and demand ransoms. Corporate cyber warfare is critical in safeguarding businesses from these growing cyber risks. Companies are investing in advanced cybersecurity technologies, proactive threat intelligence, and employee training to prevent attacks, protect valuable assets, and ensure operational resilience in an increasingly digital world. For example, in February 2023, Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., a US-based provider of cybersecurity solutions, reported a 38% increase in cyberattacks in 2022 compared to the previous year, with organizations facing an average of 1,168 attacks per week. As a result, the rise in cyber threats and attacks is fueling the growth of the corporate cyber warfare market.

Companies operating in the corporate cyber warfare market are focusing on advanced developments, such as AI-driven threat protection, to enhance real-time threat detection, automate incident response, and strengthen cybersecurity resilience against evolving cyber risks. AI-driven threat protection is an advanced cybersecurity strategy that utilizes artificial intelligence and machine learning to detect, analyze, and respond to cyber threats in real-time, improving security automation and reducing response times. For example, in January 2024, Accenture, an Ireland-based professional services company, introduced new AI-powered cybersecurity solutions, including deepfake protection and quantum-safe data security, to enhance business and cyber resilience. As cybercriminals increasingly use generative AI and dark large language models (LLMs) for sophisticated attacks, Accenture warns of the rising threat and encourages organizations to adopt AI-driven security measures for proactive threat detection, response, and prevention.

In October 2024, Thomas Bravo, a US-based private equity firm, acquired Darktrace for $5.3 billion to strengthen its cybersecurity portfolio. This acquisition enables Thomas Bravo to leverage Darktrace’s advanced AI-driven threat detection technology, aligning with its strategy to invest in high-growth security software companies. Darktrace, a UK-based cybersecurity firm, uses artificial intelligence to detect, respond to, and mitigate cyber threats in real-time.
