Europe Cyber Security Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

Europe Cybersecurity Market Analysis

The Europe Cybersecurity Market size is estimated at USD 56.96 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 95.17 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 10.81% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The key drivers contributing to the increase in the adoption of data-intensive approaches and decisions with the growth include the rise in the number of cyber-attacks regionally with the growing digitalization has the potential to damage the internet-linked digital infrastructure of various government or private sector enterprises, thereby significantly driving the market growth rate.

• The pandemic raised the demand for cybersecurity solutions to protect businesses and countries from malicious cyber attacks supported by increasing digitalization. Additionally, the Bank for International Settlements stated that, during the pandemic, financial institutions faced an increasing risk of cyber attacks, which were accelerated by remote working conditions. The need for cyber security majors in enterprises and government entities of various countries increased in the post-pandemic time due to the trend of online and data-driven businesses, fueling the implementation of cybersecurity solutions.
• According to a European DIGITAL SME Alliance report released in October 2023, a marked increase in ransomware attacks was reported, followed by phishing campaigns carried out over the same period each year, mainly targeting France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. In all four quarters, there was a consistent peak in attacks during the first quarter of 2023, with 7,772 new Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures being released, highlighting yet again the constantly changing and dynamic nature of cyber vulnerability.
• Digital connectivity has become a fundamental aspect of life in today's constantly evolving world. It is the key to communication, commerce, and access to information in this age. To ensure equal opportunities for all individuals and communities, it is therefore essential to prioritize investments in digital connectivity. According to new research by the UK government, superfast broadband is available to 98% of households in urban areas, compared to 86% in rural areas.
• The increasing integration of digital technologies into critical infrastructure, such as energy grids, transportation systems, and healthcare facilities, has significantly intensified the potential damages from cyber attacks. As these vital systems become more interconnected and reliant on digital platforms, they become more susceptible to malicious activities that can disrupt operations, compromise sensitive data, and even pose risks to public safety. This intensified vulnerability necessitates a robust and adaptive cybersecurity ecosystem to safeguard against potential consequences.
• However, the increasing demand for cyber security solutions in a shorter period has raised the skill gap in the cyber security market among the workforce, restricting the market adoption during the forecast period because, without a presence of professional cyber security professionals, companies cannot implement the cyber security solution in their systems effectively.
• With the outbreak of COVID-19, the cloud market gained significant traction as cloud-based services and tools are increasingly adopted due to organizations deploying remote work access amid lockdowns in various countries, as indicated in the graph. With the growing trends of cloud adoption and ongoing migration of on-premise to cloud solutions, cyberattacks and threats have also increased considerably, fueling the market growth rate. The end-user cloud adoption scope expanded by the COVID-19 outbreak also fueled investment in the market. Many start-ups in the market have gained investments in recent months, which is also expected to fuel innovation in the coming years.
