The data protection as a service (dpaas) market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of data protection as a service (DPaaS) has witnessed an explosive growth in the past few years. It is projected to expand from $31.99 billion in 2024 to $38.81 billion in 2025, clocking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.3%.
The driving forces behind the historic growth phase include increased data breaches and cyber threats, strict data protection rules, elevated consciousness about data privacy issues, increasing adoption of cloud computing, and the expansion of remote and mobile workforce.
The data protection as a service (dpaas) market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Projected growth in the Data Protection as a Service (DPaaS) market is expected to be significant in the upcoming years. The market is expected to swell to a whopping $102.98 billion by the year 2029, with an anticipated Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 27.6%.
The predicted growth during this period can be tied to factors such as the rising volume and diversity of data, the evolution of hybrid and multi-cloud environments, the shift towards zero trust security models, and the growing focus on data resilience and recovery. Additionally, emerging trends for this forecast period encompass cross-industry collaborations for threat intelligence, a move towards data-centric security, an escalation in the use of multi-cloud environments, and increased needs for data sovereignty and localization. The amalgamation of data protection and cybersecurity is also expected to be a significant trend.
The growing apprehension about data loss and data security is fueling the need for data protection as a service (DPaaS) in the market. The term data loss describes the disappearance of data due to internal aspects such as system failures or external factors like cyber-attacks. Global enterprises are recently showing increased unease about data security due to instances of data loss and data leakages. As an example, a US-based technology firm, Hitachi Vantara reported in June 2024 a dramatic spike in cyber-attacks. These attacks, which led to 2,365 breaches in the U.S. in 2023 affecting 343.3 million people, highlighted a shocking 72% ascent since 2021. They left many organizations seriously worried about their readiness to protect their data. The fact that 69% of IT leaders are anxious about their capacity to identify breaches early and 22% admit that crucial data remains without backup, is intensifying the need for Data Protection as a Service (DPaaS) solutions to address these critical issues.
