Press Release

Government and Defense Segment is Expected to Dominate the Global Penetration Testing Market

The increasing number of cyber-attacks, coupled with the growing need to meet compliance measures are the factors propelling the market growth.

 

According to TechSci Research report, “Global Penetration Testing Market - Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2028”. The Global Penetration Testing is anticipated to project robust growth in the forecast period with a CAGR of 25.80% through 2028. The increasing number of cyber-attacks, coupled with the growing need to meet compliance measures, is anticipated to be a growth driver for the global penetration testing market during the forecast period.

The increasing demand for the protection of software-based properties such as mobile and web applications is anticipated to boost the growth of the global penetration testing market. Additionally, the increasing use of cloud-based security solutions is expected to fuel the demand for penetration testing. This, in turn, is anticipated to foster the growth of the global penetration testing market. Moreover, the increasing digitization in developing countries is expected to increase the trend of Internet of Things (IoT)-based connected devices. This, in turn, drives the demand for penetration testing.

The growing internet activities globally, coupled with the increased security compulsion, are driving the market growth of the global penetration testing market during the forecast period.

Based on End-user Vertical, Government and Defense will dominate the market, The government and its agencies have the authority to access and manage large amounts of sensitive citizen information. Further, with the advent of the digital age, governments have leveraged online web portals and mobile applications to enhance government procedures and processes. For instance, the government of India has begun a digital movement, "Digital India," intending to digitize all government processes and payments.

Infrastructure development is emerging as one of the priorities for governments, including deploying public Wi-Fi and connected public transport. As a result, there is a need for government organizations to secure the network and its applications to protect the integrity of citizen information on a large scale. This has created a greater vulnerability to sensitive data.

Further, technologies, such as commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), are used by federal governments to enable broad functional capabilities for government applications. Since these solutions were developed for commercial purposes, government systems are vulnerable to certain unique risks that must be addressed.

Thus, software vendors developing technology for the government have been pushed to ensure security for static and dynamic applications through compliance measures and mandates, such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) risk management framework (RMF) and the Department of Defense Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DoD DIACAP). These mandates demand that vendors guarantee testing services and verification of their applications. The abovementioned factors are expected to propel the market's growth studied over the forecast period.

Based on Region, North America will dominate the market, The region is a technology hub. Therefore, the Federal government has made stringent rules regarding security testing services. Moreover, it is made compulsory for industries like BFSI to adhere to compliance testing. According to International Telecommunication Union (ITU), North America is the most proactive and committed region regarding cyber security-based initiatives. The GCI score given to the major countries (United States – 0.91 and Canada – 0.81) further reinforces their commitment to building a robust cybersecurity framework and enhanced security testing methodologies. Businesses in the region look forward to installing penetration testing, security, and vulnerability management solutions and have the best practices for regular business operations.

Moreover, employees are accessing business networks and data using their devices that are not adequately secure due to the growing trend of working from home (WFH), which exposes exploitable weaknesses to cyberattacks. Additionally, many North American companies have created and updated their current web- and mobile-based apps due to the increased adoption of digital transformation to meet the growing demand for customers to shop online, opening up possibilities for cyberattacks. Companies across the region are anticipated to double down on necessary security arrangements such as a layered defense with firewall, filtered DNS, segmented networks, security clients, etc. However, employee awareness and training might be the investment that brings the highest RoI for companies.

“The global penetration testing market is primarily driven by the escalating cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities that organizations face. With a surge in data breaches, ransomware attacks, and advanced cyber threats, businesses and institutions are increasingly turning to penetration testing services to proactively identify and address security weaknesses. Compliance requirements and industry standards further fuel the demand for these assessments. The growth of digital transformation, cloud adoption, and the Internet of Things (IoT) expand the attack surface, necessitating security assessments. The shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals, cyber insurance requirements, and heightened consumer awareness of data security also contribute to the market's growth.” said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director with TechSci Research, a research-based global management consulting firm.
