Key Trends in the Market

Advanced persistent threat refers to attack campaigns in which the intruder establishes a long-term illicit presence in a network for mining sensitive data. Such intrusions can result in theft of intellectual property and compromise sensitive information, among others. Advanced persistent threat protection refers to the security measures, services, and technologies employed to provide protection against such intrusions.

• The key trends propelling the advanced persistent threat protection market growth include increasing incidences of advanced persistent threats. The increasing sophistication of such attacks and rising persistence is boosting the utilisation of advanced persistent threat protection as once a network is infiltered, the perpetrator is hard to find as they often infiltrate the entire network and not just one section.
• Increasing adoption of cybersecurity measures, devices, technologies, and services by sectors such as healthcare, retail, and BFSI is further boosting the adoption of advanced persistent threat protection solutions. This is due to the various advantages provided by them including, secured data transmission, risk assessment, and authentication of data storage, among others.
• Growing emphasis on insider threat detection is further boosting the advanced persistent threat protection market demand. Insider threat detection is often achieved by traffic monitoring, which prevents installation of backdoors and blocks stolen data extraction and can also alert security personnel of any unusual activity or behaviour.
