Market Trends of Data Center Logical Security Industry
Increasing Demand for Access Control and Identification Solution
- In recent years, companies have significantly invested in IAM (Identity and Access Management) solutions to perform the jobs that are out of reach for humans since hackers and malicious employees are mostly unknown.
- An identity management cybersecurity breach caused by organized crime, state-sponsored militaries, or other groups can have a lot of negative effects on staff productivity and morale, the IT network, and the reputation of the company.These threats demand a new level of identity and access management solutions.
- In the cloud, data is expanding more quickly and is free to move wherever it is needed by a workforce that is becoming more mobile. The data center logical security market is likely to grow because more and more businesses want to protect their data in the cloud.Informatica, for instance, offers Intelligent Cloud ServicesSM, including user authentication, failover data centers, access controls, and security at the operating system, database, and application levels.
- Moreover, the use of AI and machine learning algorithms is also prevalent for the same. Advancements in this segment have led to machine learning algorithms being used in these solutions.
- The bulk of the authentications are expected to be performed by machine learning technology, as IAM increasingly relies on physical and behavioral biometrics for geolocation data. As these additions are anticipated to enhance the IAM solutions, the demand for these solutions is expected to increase.

European Market to Witness High Adoption of the Solutions
- Cloudscene says that Germany has the biggest market share in Europe, followed by the UK and the Netherlands.Other countries that contribute to the European market include France, Italy, and Poland.
- Despite the economic uncertainties, the region's demand for data centers remains strong. This will lead to the expansion of existing data centers and the building of new ones. The security, latency, and connectivity requirements drive enterprises to adopt data centers.
- Moreover, in April last year, TikTok established a data center in Dublin, Ireland, to house UK and EEA (TikTok) users. It applies a variety of complementary technological, contractual, and organizational safeguards to ensure that these transfers are subject to the same degree of data protection as in the UK and EEA. In practice, this implies that a solid set of physical and logical security measures and numerous rules and data access restrictions for workers safeguard any personal data.
- Logical security in data centers in the region is expected to be driven by the growing number of data centers, which is caused by companies investing and growing in the area.For instance, in October last year, AtlasEdge, a prominent provider of pan-European edge data centers, announced the acquisition of Datacenter One ("DC1"). AtlasEdge's European development continues, with DC1 being Germany's top data center supplier.
- Furthermore, in June last year, Schneider Electric announced a faster, prefabricated data center solution in Europe and a "modernization" of its network management software, Ecostruxure IT.
