Cloud Security Market in Manufacturing Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Cloud Security Market Analysis

The Cloud Security Market in Manufacturing Industry is expected to grow from USD 15.21 billion in 2024 to USD 34.90 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 18.07% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The manufacturing industry is rapidly evolving, and with it comes an increasing demand for agile system innovation and process support. This demand has led to the adoption of cloud security solutions, which offer greater visibility and flexibility to manufacturers.

• Manufacturing is one of the most highly targeted industries for cyberattacks, with almost half of all manufacturers have experienced a cybersecurity incident. This has resulted in significant financial losses and disruptions to business operations. As a result, a major portion of a company's budget is being spent on security solutions.
• However, migrating production processes from on-premise to the cloud can be challenging, as most production processes are currently supported by on-premise solutions. Manufacturers should focus on new events that can be transferred to the cloud while developing a more intelligent ERP system to handle older events, enabling manufacturing functions to scale as needed.
• Governments worldwide are investing in cloud-based computing delivery methods through public-private partnerships to advance innovative megacity enterprises and intelligent transportation networks. Cloud-based technology provides reliable, affordable, and scalable outcomes that can transform metropolises into digitally connected and intelligent structures. In the Middle East, governments are endorsing initiatives like the Dubai Internet City (DIC) and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) Vision 2030 to develop smart municipalities and innovative transportation services.
• Furthermore, in July 2023, Sight Machine Inc. announced that its Manufacturing Data Platform is now a certified solution for Microsoft Cloud for Manufacturing, further expanding its reach within the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. Sight Machine's multi-year participation in Microsoft's partner ecosystem for manufacturing enables organizations to assist manufacturers around the globe in transforming their businesses and unlock new levels of productivity and sustainability with leading cloud, data and AI-powered technology.
• However, large and small organizations may be hesitant to shift their operations to the cloud due to a lack of trust in cloud service providers (CSPs). CSPs hold critical data, making them highly vulnerable to complex cyberattacks that can discourage businesses from entrusting their nonpublic data to these providers.
• The COVID-19 pandemic increased the demand for cloud solutions, including cloud security solutions, due to an increase in phishing offenses. Scammers were using COVID-19 as a lure to generate income, and the shift to remote working made dispatch fraud schemes easier to execute as communication relies heavily on dispatch.
• In conclusion, the manufacturing industry's adoption of cloud security solutions is expected to grow rapidly, driven by cyber threats, demand for greater agility, and visibility in system innovation and process support. The government's investments in cloud-based technology will also contribute to market growth, though the issue of trust in CSPs remains a challenge. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of cloud security solutions, which will continue to be in high demand in the foreseeable future.

Cloud Security Industry Segmentation

Manufacturers deal with sensitive data, like quality data, warranty information, device history records, and the engineering specifications for a product that are highly confidential. Although they are stored in public/private/hybrid cloud, security concerns still remain. Hence, cloud security is necessary for data loss prevention, endpoint security, and identity and access management.

The cloud security market in manufacturing is segmented by solution (identity and access management, data loss prevention, IDS/IPS, security information and event management, and encryption), security (application security, database security, endpoint security, network security, and web and email security), deployment mode (private, hybrid, and public), and geography (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East and Africa). The report offers market forecasts and size in value (USD) for all the above segments.
