26 Mar, 2025

How Has the 5G Network Security Market Size Evolved in Recent Years?

The 5g network security market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of 5G network security has seen a massive expansion in the last few years. It's predicted to rise from $4.75 billion in 2024 to $6.55 billion in 2025, showing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 37.7%.
The prolific growth in previous years can be credited to factors such as the growing use of 5G networks, increased funding towards network security, innovative advancements in connected devices, an upswing in demand for security connectivity solutions, and a surge in the applicability of 5G networks.

What Is The Forecast For The 5G Network Security Market By 2029?

The 5g network security market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size of 5G network security is predicted to experience a significant upsurge in the coming years, escalating to $23.28 billion in 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 37.3%.
The projected growth during this period can be attributed to a surge in demand for end-to-end security solutions, enhanced cyber threats, a heightened need for cloud-based security solutions, and growing concerns about privacy and malware awareness. The future trends to watch include progress in technology, strategic partnerships, the incorporation of artificial intelligence, encryption technologies, investment in secure clouds, and cloud-based security solutions.

What Are The Essential Drivers Behind The Growth Of The 5G Network Security Market?

With the rise in cyber threat incidents, the expansion of the 5G network security market is expected. Cyber threats, which intend to breach the safety, reliability, and availability of digital systems, data, and networks, are increasing. This increase is due to escalating digital business operations, cloud computing growth, the prominence of remote working, and evolving cybercriminal strategies. 5G network security enhances resistance to such threats, employing superior encryption, AI-powered threat detection, and zero-trust architectures safeguarding data, devices, and network foundation. For example, as stated by the Australian Signals Directorate, a state agency in Australia, approximately 94,000 cybercrime reports were filed in the fiscal year 2022-23, marking a 23% growth compared to the prior fiscal year, and averaging one report every six minutes. Hence, these escalating cyber threat incidents are fuelling the expansion of the 5G network security market.
