How Has the Healthcare Cybersecurity Market Size Evolved in Recent Years?
The healthcare cybersecurity market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of cybersecurity in healthcare has experienced substantial growth in the last few years. It is projected to increase from $23.86 billion in 2024 to $27.63 billion in 2025, boasting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.8%.
The expansion observed in the historical period can be credited to the surge in cyber attacks, worry over security and confidentiality issues, cooperation between the public and private sectors to improve cybersecurity in healthcare, the existence of advanced healthcare and medical infrastructure, and the rise of digital technologies.
What are the Market Size and Expected Growth Rates for the Healthcare Cybersecurity Market?
The healthcare cybersecurity market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the upcoming years, an accelerated expansion is anticipated in the healthcare cybersecurity market, predicted to reach a worth of $49.26 billion in 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.5%.
This projected growth during the forecast period stems from an increase in healthcare cybersecurity investments by numerous healthcare institutions and government-led initiatives, alongside a rising demand for cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions and privacy measures. Other factors contributing to this growth include an escalation in the frequency and complexity of cyber threats, growing security, regulatory compliance issues, and heightened Network Vulnerabilities. Key trends expected to emerge during the forecast period embrace a surge in the integration of IoT and connected devices, an expansion in the use of cloud-based healthcare solutions, escalating adoption of healthcare IT Solutions in outpatient care facilities and increased usage of connected devices and smartphones. The adoption of 5G technology, coupled with increased digitalization and the incorporation of Electronic Health Records (EHRs), wireless medical technology and telemedicine, are also anticipated to drive the market growth.
Which Key Drivers Are Propelling The Healthcare Cybersecurity Market's Growth?
The escalation in cyberattacks is anticipated to stimulate the expansion of the healthcare cybersecurity market. Cyberattacks are hostile acts aimed at interrupting, destroying, or unauthorized entry into computer systems, networks, or devices. The motivation behind these threats is typically financial gain, with cybercriminals aiming to acquire sensitive monetary information, orchestrate ransom attacks, or indulge in other activities to profit from their attacks. Cybersecurity in healthcare is crucial in safeguarding sensitive patient information, maintaining care continuity, and defending health systems from cyberattacks which could result in data breaches, financial damage, and compromised patient security. For example, as stated by Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., a software company based in Israel, the first nine months of 2023 witnessed a 3% surge in the global average of weekly cyberattacks in comparison to the same period in 2022. The healthcare sector also endured a notable increase of 11% in cyberattacks, averaging 1613 incidents each week. Hence, the rising occurrence of cyberattacks is fueling the growth of healthcare cybersecurity.
