Market Overview:
The global penetration testing market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.8% from 2018 to 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing adoption of penetration testing by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and large enterprises across the globe. Additionally, the increasing demand for cloud-based penetration testing services is also contributing to the growth of this market. Network Penetration Testing is expected to hold the largest share in terms of type in 2018, owing to its growing demand among organizations for detecting vulnerabilities in their networks and mitigating them before they are exploited by cybercriminals.
Product Definition:
Penetration testing (also called pen testing) is a method of evaluating the security of a computer system or network by simulating an attack. Penetration testers attempt to exploit vulnerabilities in systems to determine whether unauthorized access or other malicious activities are possible.
Network Penetration Testing:
Network penetration testing is a method of testing the network's ability to process data in real-time. It tests the network's resistance to external attacks, its ability to withstand Denial of Service (DoS) attacks and other forms of cybercrimes, and also tests its resilience against downtime. Network penetration testing is used by businesses for ensuring that their IT infrastructure meets all necessary requirements before installing any new system or device on their networks.
Web & Wireless Penetration Testing:
Web & wireless penetration testing is a technique used to test the web application and wireless network security. It helps in finding vulnerabilities in the system by sending forged requests to the vulnerable application with an intention to test its response time and authentication mechanism.
This testing technique is widely used by hackers for gaining access into systems or networks which are connected through internet without being detected.
Application Insights:
The large enterprises segment dominated the global penetration testing market in 2017. This can be attributed to the presence of a strong IT security posture and robust security management infrastructure in large enterprises. Large enterprises are more prone to external attacks as they have a complex network with multiple layers of interdependent components. Therefore, penetration tests conducted for such enterprise ensure effective and efficient testing by providing accurate results while identifying vulnerabilities across all layers & components of an organization's IT infrastructure.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the presence of a large number of penetration testing firms and increasing demand for security testing services from enterprises and government agencies. Asia Pacific is projected to grow at a lucrative CAGR over the forecast period owing to rising investments by governments in developing economies, such as India, China, and Japan, for strengthening cyber defense capabilities against various threats including data theft/losses & social engineering attacks. Moreover, growing adoption of cloud technologies across several sectors including BFSI has led to an increase in penetration tests aimed at finding vulnerabilities present on these platforms which can be exploited by hackers for gaining unauthorized access or causing damage.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for cyber security and data privacy
- Proliferation of connected devices and BYOD trend
- Increased adoption of cloud-based services
- Growing awareness about the benefits of penetration testing among businesses
- Emergence of new attack vectors and vulnerabilities
