Rising penetration of mobile, tablet and other electronics and rising data consumption will drive the web content, search portals, SEO services, and social media market. An increase in sales of internet-accessible electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets lead to an increase in the consumption of digital content. For example, the total number of smartphone devices across the world reached 6 billion in 2020, that is eight people out of 10 owned a smartphone in 2020, eventually driving the revenues of web content, search portals, SEO services, and social media companies. This increasing use of smartphones is expected to increase internet usage, hence driving the growth of web content, search portals, SEO services, and social media market. Major companies in the web content, search portals, and social media market include Google, Facebook, Tencent, Baidu, and Netflix. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a significant restraint on some of the web content, search portals, and social media markets in 2020 as businesses were disrupted due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and spread globally including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in a decline in economic activity and restricted movement of goods and services with countries entering a state of 'lock down'. The outbreak had a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, many media markets have been unaffected or benefited from this as they transmit their content remotely through digital channels. It is expected that the web content, search portals, and social media market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a 'black swan event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy. Companies in the digital publishing and content streaming market are developing Progressive Web Applications (PWAs) to drive user engagement and revenues. PWAs are applications within a web browser, displayed as a website. PWAs enable developers to develop a single app that can work across all platforms and devices, leading to significant savings in the time and effort taken for app development. PWAs help web content publishing companies to maximize reach, increase the level of user engagement, and provide a unified customer experience. For example, Flutter, supported and developed by Google, is the latest framework used for developing mobile applications for operating systems such as iOS and Android. PWAs developed by Washington Post, an American news publishing company, have resulted in increasing the rate of user engagement by as much as five times.

Cybersecurity is the protection of Internet-connected systems against cyber threats such as hardware, software, and data. The main solutions of cybersecurity are network security, cloud application security, end-point security, secure web gateway, internet security and others. Network security is a set of technologies that protects the usability and integrity of a company's infrastructure by preventing a wide range of potential threats from entering or spreading within a network. The software is deployed through cloud and on-premises mode by small and medium enterprise, large enterprise. The various end users include BFSI, IT and telecommunications, retail, healthcare, government, manufacturing, travel and transportation, energy and utilities, among others. The global cybersecurity market is segmented - 1) By Solution: Network Security, Cloud Application Security, End-point Security, Secure Web Gateway, Internet Security, Other Solutions 2) By Enterprise Size: Small & Medium Enterprise, Large Enterprise 3) By Deployment Type: Cloud, On Premises 4) By End-Use: BFSI, IT & Telecommunications, Retail, Healthcare, Government, Manufacturing, Travel and Transportation, Energy and Utilities, Other End-Uses The global cybersecurity market size will grow from $201.33 billion in 2022 to $223.7 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of global cybersecurity is expected to grow to $338.84 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 10.9%. The rising scale of cyber threats is generating higher demand for cybersecurity solutions. Cyberattacks on individuals, companies, and governmental organizations are increasing and resulting in huge financial losses. For example, according to Infosecurity Magazine, a Canadian online magazine serving information security community, 108.9 million internet user accounts were breached in the third quarter of 2022, with a 70% increase over the previous quarter. Therefore, rising spending on cybersecurity solutions attributing to the increasing threat of cyberattacks is projected to propel the revenues for the cybersecurity market during the forecast period. Major players in the cybersecurity market are AVG Technologies NV, Check Point Software Technologies, Cisco Systems, CyberArk, F5 Networks, FireEye, Forcepoint, Fortinet, F-Secure, IBM Corporation, Imperva, Juniper Networks, McAfee, Micro Focus, Microsoft, Oracle, Palo Alto Networks, Proofpoint, Qualys, Rapid7, RSA Security, Sophos, Splunk, Symantec and Trend Micro. The increasing use of unlicensed or pirated software is a significant threat to the cybersecurity market. Pirate software refers to the unauthorized copy of the software, which is a replica of the original software. Internet-based piracy of software and solutions is an emerging issue for the industry. According to the BSA global software survey published, despite the 2% drop in the pirated software installation rates, the unlicensed software was being installed at alarming rates, accounting for 37% of software installed on personal computers. The organizations purchasing unlicensed software packages and a computer with pirated software installed can impede the growth of the bottom line and induce unprecedented security risk. Thus, this high rate of software piracy is hindering the growth of the cybersecurity market. Increasing government investments in cybersecurity solutions is a major trend shaping the growth of the cybersecurity industry. For instance, in September 2022, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), a US federal executive department responsible for public security launched a $1 billion investment to fund its first-ever cyber grant program customized especially for state, local and territorial governments across the country. This will aid governments to address cybersecurity risks such as identifying key vulnerabilities, eliminating threats and bolstering critical infrastructure. Thus, increasing investments by the governments globally are likely to create large avenues for expansion for the players operating in the cybersecurity market over the forthcoming years. In October 2022, KnowBe4 agreed to be acquired by Vista Equity Partners, an American investment firm for $4.6 billion. The acquisition enables KnowBe4 to have additional resources and support from Vista for its next phase of development. KnowBe4 is a US-based cybersecurity company.
