Global Cybersecurity Projected to Exceed $300 Billion in 2024

PALM BEACH, Florida, March 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Late last year, in September 2018, only about 5 months ago, a respected industry research firm Statista published a report that projected that by 2023, the worldwide cybersecurity revenues will reach $248.26 Billion Dollars. Another research report released in January of 2019 goes a step further and projects that revenues in 2024 will "Eclipse" $300 Billion Dollars. This new report says: "The global cybersecurity market is set to grow from its current market value of more than $120 billion to over $300 billion by 2024, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights. The cybersecurity market is propelled by the increasing need among enterprises to minimize security risks. As enterprises are rapidly embracing Cloud platforms and other networking technologies, they are becoming more vulnerable to various cyber-attacks. The average expenditure on cybercrime has increased significantly. In 2017, the average spending by organizations on cybersecurity solutions increased by over 23% accounting for over $11.7 million. Active tech companies in the markets this week include: Cyberfort Software, Inc. (OTCPK: CYBF), Xunlei Limited (NASDAQ: XNET), Symantec Corporation (NASDAQ: SYMC), FireEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: FEYE), CyberArk Software Ltd. (NASDAQ: CYBR).

This rise in budgetary allocations in cybersecurity solutions is driving the growth of the cybersecurity market. The rising penetration of various mobile and wireless devices is fostering the growth of the cybersecurity market. The falling prices of mobile devices and advancements in the connectivity infrastructure across the globe are propelling the adoption of smart devices across enterprises and consumers. This has caused a simultaneous increase in the number of cyber-attacks on mobile devices. The infrastructure protection market is also expected to grow at a significant pace over the projected frame due to the growing adoption of IoT devices and the increasing use of email and web-based applications.
