Data Protection and Recovery Solutions Market Report 2026

The data protection and recovery solutions market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $9.78 billion in 2025 to $11.69 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increase in cyberattacks, adoption of enterprise cloud services, growth of remote work infrastructure, rising regulatory compliance requirements, expansion of digital business operation.

The data protection and recovery solutions market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $23.6 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to integration of AI-based recovery tools, adoption of zero trust security models, expansion of hybrid cloud adoption, rising demand for business continuity solutions, growth of automated backup systems. Major trends in the forecast period include cloud backup and recovery, ransomware protection solutions, automated disaster recovery, endpoint data protection integration, hybrid cloud data security.

The increasing frequency of cyberattacks is expected to drive the growth of the data protection and recovery solutions market in the coming years. Cyberattacks involve deliberate attempts by individuals or groups to infiltrate, disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to computer systems, networks, or digital data. The rise in cyberattacks targeting data protection and recovery solutions is fueled by increasingly sophisticated threats such as AI-driven malware, ransomware, supply chain attacks, and the expanded attack surface caused by remote work and IoT devices. These threats exploit vulnerabilities in evolving digital infrastructures and challenge conventional security measures. Data protection and recovery solutions help secure critical organizational data and ensure its rapid restoration following incidents like data loss, theft, cyberattacks, or disasters, thereby protecting business continuity and reducing operational disruptions. For example, in November 2024, the Australian Cyber Security Centre, an Australian government agency, reported that during the 2023-24 financial year, the Australian Cybersecurity Hotline operated by ASD received over 36,700 calls, a 12% increase from the prior year, while ASD managed more than 1,100 cybersecurity incidents within the same period. Therefore, the increasing number of cyberattacks is expected to propel growth in the data protection and recovery solutions market.

Key companies in the data protection and recovery solutions market are focusing on enhancing cybersecurity resilience by expanding service offerings, integrating advanced technologies like AI and automation, and delivering more robust, scalable, and comprehensive data protection and recovery solutions across various industries. For example, in July 2023, Kyndryl Holdings Inc., a US-based IT company, partnered with Veritas Technologies LLC, a US-based systems software firm, to launch two joint services: Data Protection Risk Assessment and Incident Recovery with Veritas, which offer cyber resilience capabilities. These services help organizations identify vulnerabilities and recover from cyber incidents in on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments. The risk assessment service evaluates IT infrastructure against best practices using Kyndryl’s cyber resilience framework combined with Veritas’ data insights, while the incident recovery service provides AI-powered, fully managed backup and recovery features including anomaly detection, air-gapped protection, and automated recovery.

In January 2025, Cohesity, a US-based information technology company, acquired Veritas Technologies for an undisclosed sum. Through this acquisition, Cohesity aims to become the world’s largest data protection provider by offering an integrated, scalable, and cyber-resilient platform. Veritas Technologies is a US-based systems software company specializing in data protection and recovery solutions.
