The market addresses the complex landscape of protecting critical infrastructure sectors, including electric power grids, transportation, and pharmaceutical manufacturing, from sophisticated attacks and sophisticated malware. With operational technology products and field devices integral to industrial processes, ensuring uninterrupted availability is crucial against threats posed by cybercriminals. Organizations prioritize automatic security updates and adherence to compliance mandates and industry standards to mitigate risks stemming from neglect or delays in security updates. Security Operations Centers (SOCs) play a pivotal role in intrusion detection systems and secure remote access, fostering a collective cybersecurity mindset through security awareness and protective measures. As the market evolves, emphasis on endpoint security, application security, and robust security governance frameworks supports industries in maintaining productivity and resilience amidst the dynamic cybersecurity landscape.
With the increase in the frequency and complexity of cyberattacks, it is essential that enterprises improve the quality of security. Also, because of the increased complexity of the applications that companies use in their day-to-day business processes, there has been an increase in false positives and false negatives. The problem becomes more complex due to the limited skills and knowledge in IT administration among the administrators.
However, with the aim of reducing the funding required to train or enroll staff specifically for this task, many companies are outsourcing their security responsibilities, which not only have skilled staff but are also concentrated on security issues and are, thus, able to provide a better quality of protection. A significant cause of concern is cybersecurity attacks across the globe. The growing need for improved security creates a huge demand for the ICS, which in turn will enhance the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Traditionally, market vendors first provided two distribution models for cybersecurity solutions, namely on-premises and cloud-based models. A high investment from the organization was required for an on-premises deployment model, whereas a cloud-based approach offered more cost-effective solutions to organizations of all sizes. There have been instances of the loss of confidential data, such as the financial information of a customer while using cloud-based security solutions.
However, In large-scale ICS installations, cloud-based solutions frequently include powerful analytics and real-time monitoring capabilities, which can be useful for spotting anomalies and potential security concerns. From different industries, there is increasing demand for hybrid deployment models, which will encourage emerging vendors to provide ICS security solutions which will increase the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Multiple standards and guidelines exist for ICS security, including US NIST Interagency 7628 and NIST Special Publication 800-82, which cover smart grid cybersecurity strategy, architecture, and data privacy. These standards and guidelines are a set of recommendations that are not compulsory in audits or certification. The global security market for ICS is enforceable standards is an obstacle.
Therefore, automation vendors and ICS owners are uncertain about whether the existing standards for ICS security will continue to be applicable once the above-mentioned law is enacted several years from now. Many business owners are taking the approach of waiting and seeing as a result of this lack of clarity. Hence, they are not willing to invest in ICS security solutions now as they fear losses if future laws invalidate their entire investment. Hence, such factors are hindering the market during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the network security segment will be significant during the forecast period. In the industrial control systems (ICS) security market, the top priority of network security is protecting vital infrastructure and business operations. The security of networks and control systems, which oversee important activities in a wide range of sectors, including energy and infrastructure, is addressed by the ICS.

The network security segment was valued at USD 10 billion in 2018. The ICS network uses intrusion detection and prevention system (IDPS) technology to identify suspicious or malicious activity and take appropriate action. By detecting anomalies and potential threats in real-time, they may be able to respond quickly to incidents. The demand for industrial control system security is high in the network security segment, which, in turn, will increase the growth of the market during the forecast period.
With greater networking and communication, ICS in the oil and gas industry are prone to cyberattacks from terrorist groups, hostile governments, disgruntled employees, and other malicious intruders. The vulnerability of these systems to insecure and remote connections, standardization of technology, as well as easy availability on the internet, is due to a lack of technical information. These factors have made it very easy for potential hackers to intercept and issue unauthorized commands to control censorious equipment. SCADA systems control some of the vital frameworks of the oil and gas and water distribution industries. These networks and services may pose risks to the health, security, and economic welfare of people if they are interrupted or destroyed. The demand for industrial control system security is high in the oil and gas industry, which in turn will drive the growth of the global market in the oil and gas segment during the forecast period.
