Cloud Security Posture Management Market Research, 2031
The global cloud security posture management market size was valued at $4 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $15.2 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 14.5% from 2022 to 2031.
Organizations all over the world are embracing cloud computing and storage to reduce costs and increase their agility. As more applications and data move to the cloud, the risk of systems or data being exposed increases. Furthermore, as organizations deploy services in different public clouds, maintaining security and compliance across environments becomes more complex. Cloud security posture management (CSPM) is a category of automated data security solution that manages monitoring, identification, alerting, and remediation of compliance risks and misconfigurations in cloud environments. One of its most critical functions is continuous monitoring for gaps in the way security policies are enforced.
Reducing visibility in IT infrastructure and increasing configuration errors in cloud infrastructure, lack of efficient security tools, processes to manage cloud-based environments, and developing cloud security capabilities such as easy integration of DevSecOps and threat intelligence are some of the factors which are driving the market growth. However, lack of skilled expertise and lack of awareness of cloud resources, cloud security architectures, and strategies are some of the factors expected to hinder Cloud Security Posture Management Market Growth.
