Cloud Security Market Trends




  • Rising Impact of Software-as-a-Service to boost the market growth




During the analysis period, the effect of COVID-19 is anticipated to lead to noticeably high growth in this market. This results from the adoption of cloud security solutions significantly accelerating, aided by the rapid uptake of cloud-based solutions. The organization's operating model is predicted to be disrupted by the software-as-a-service concept. The use of containers is projected to expand due to the COVID-19 influence on corporate operations, which will guarantee to raise demand for reliable security solutions.


The cloud's scalability and smooth user experience are credited for the continually growing trend in demand for hybrid clouds. Moreover, serverless computing and rising DevOps productivity will probably fuel market expansion. Similar to this, enterprises have reported moving more workloads from on-premises and data centers to the cloud in response to COVID-19. As a result, security concerns are expected to stay high as public cloud computing adoption keeps growing in response to the COVID crisis, hastening the transition to remote work settings. Crypto-jacking attacks in the cloud are caused by the fluctuating value of cryptocurrencies designed with superior decision-making capabilities. For instance, CoinStomp is malware made up of shell scripts that try to mine bitcoin via cloud computing instances maintained by network security providers. Users and providers of IT security have the chance to put the required safeguards in place. A declining trend in the availability of public cloud storage services shows that businesses are taking precautions to solve security issues. Therefore, such applications in cryptocurrencies have recently enhanced the Cloud Security market CAGR globally.


The usage of containers in the IT sector has exploded in recent years. Numerous businesses use managed or native Kubernetes orchestration. Businesses use well-known managed cloud services like Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes, Azure Kubernetes Service, and Google Kubernetes Engine. The management, deployment, and scaling of containerized use cases are made simple for developers by such managed services platforms, which will contribute to the Cloud Security market revenue.
