The global Security and Vulnerability Management market size is predicted to reach over USD 11.8 billion in 2020 and projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% over the forecast period.

The adoption of security and vulnerability management solutions is hampered by a lack of awareness about vulnerability management solutions, as well as deployment costs and scalability. Because of the industry's large customer base, the BFSI sector has been subjected to numerous data breaches and cyber-attacks.

The growing popularity of e-commerce has compelled banks to create secure channels for third-party payments. This industry is expected to have the largest market share during the forecast period.

Security and vulnerability management provides a mechanism for enterprises to analyse risk factors and reduce the risk involved. Cyber-attacks such as data breaches, hacking, and malware attacks are among these threats. The increased use of third-party platforms such as SaaS and cloud storage has also increased the risk of network exposure, which can be mitigated with security and vulnerability management. By identifying potential/existing threats in the network, Security and Vulnerability Management provides increased security and new approaches to dealing with threats.

Rising enterprises pay large sums as compensation for the lack of vulnerability management solutions, which is a significant factor in the global growth of the security and vulnerability management market. In the forecast period, the growing massive migration of enterprises to cloud computing will create lucrative opportunities for the security and vulnerability management market.
