Smart grid cyber security is becoming the foundational technology model for safeguarding the power infrastructure. Many enterprises are adopting smart grid cyber security solutions as a cost-effective approach to bolster real-time analysis. The high usage for security solutions across various industries has become one of the significant factors offering cutting edge services for better efficiency, scalability, and customers experience. Additionally, the growth of the market is on account of the continuous evolution of smart grids extensively integrating with emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), digital twins, cloud computing and cybersecurity solutions across the globe during the forecast period. Technology has become the key enabler of excellence and businesses are gradually becoming mobile as digitalization emerges which is expected to boost the global smart grid cyber security market during the forecast period. 

Smart grid cyber security is an electrical grid with automation, communication and IT systems that can monitor power flows from points of generation to points of consumption and control the power flow or curtail the load to match generation in real time. A reliable and secure smart grid system provides protective approaches to improve security from cyber-attacks, such as distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. Smart grid cyber security has three key components: systems data sources, network data sources, and distribution network. Smart grid cyber security can monitor grid conditions, energy consumptions and automate many of its operators and run sophisticated algorithms, which cannot be achieved by locally implementing SCADA or ICS. The solution generally evaluates the conditions and performance of equipment through periodic or continuous assets condition monitoring and alert technicians for an upcoming failure. The organizations use smart grid to make use of different technologies such as advance components, improved decision support & interfaces, integrated communication, advance control methods and measurement & sensing to manage the energy saving through reducing consumption. Cost maintenance reduction, increased asset utilization, real-time monitoring, assets life extension, lower cost of distribution and generation, reliability improvement of the electrical grid, quality risks, efficiency improvement benefits are enabling smart grid cyber security as a significant role in effective asset management and maintenance.

Increasing Technological Advancement and Growing Demand for Energy

The increase in technological advancement and growing demand for energy across the globe is driving the smart grid cyber security market as owing to the requirement of continuous advancement such as communication and advance computing power with real-time control and monitoring in smart energy technologies. Smart grid real-time monitoring and control enable the better generation of electricity power and an efficient way for transmission and distribution of the power over the traditional business intelligence solutions. Technological advancement with the concept of smart grid design allows businesses to create controllability of assets, enhancing the performance, grid observability and better security of power system. Developing economies which lack infrastructure are relying more on smart grid advance solutions for reliability of power transmission and distribution as the technology has a huge potential to maintain the high transmission losses. Furthermore, rising urbanization, amplifying living standards and advancement in technologies has increased the demand for electricity requirement vividly in various countries that are  cost-effective, secure and offer flexibility during power delivery structure with good service reliability is enabling the growing adoption of smart grid security systems. Thus, this rising demand and adoption has anticipated the growth of smart grid cyber security in the market.

Increased Sophistication of Cyber-Attacks

One of the main drivers for the small and medium-sized enterprise is the increasing demand for better and secure solutions for overcoming recent cyber-attacks and safeguard critical power grids infrastructure. The recent cyber-attacks with increasing load and consumption demand have increased electricity complications along with problems such as blackouts, overloads, and voltage sags. Cyber-attack risks such as phishing, malware spreading, denial-of-services (DoS) and spoofing attacks have become common to hamper the power gird infrastructure. With the advent of integrating cyber security systems, enterprises can make business operations more functional, improve overall efficiency, develop risk assessments methodologies with real-time monitoring with great accuracy by addressing potential threats from disgruntled employees, terrorists, and espionage operations. Moreover, digitalization and 5G services in the emerging technology for streamlining the process are enabling the massive use of security solution, which is expected to drive the smart grid cyber security market during the forecast period.

Increasing Government Initiatives and Policies to Enhance Power Infrastructure

The increasing government initiatives and favorable policies to enhance the national power infrastructure are driving the demand of smart grid cyber security market during the forecast period. Several government initiatives and investments across the globe to secure the power infrastructure and increase the efficiency and productivity of energy while reducing the energy losses are helping enterprises to adopt more advanced solutions in the power grid. Different countries of the world have stepped forward in the era of smart grid and accept its reality. Government of different countries such as Australia, United States, China, Britain, South Korea, and Japan are already considering options such as smart grid for reducing carbon emission and energy security. Moreover, organizations such as The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA) are developing guidelines with cohesive cyber strategy for smart grid cyber security. For instance, The Biden-Harris Administration through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently announced the new financing opportunities of $13 billion for the expansion and modernization of the nation’s electric grid, reaching 100% clean electricity by 2035 and a zero-emissions economy by 2050. Thus, the rising government initiatives, favorable policies and investments are expected to propel the demand of smart grid cyber security market during the forecast period.
