The DevSecOps market is set for significant growth, with a projected market size of US$ 45.93 billion by 2032. This rapid expansion is fueled by the increasing demand for secure software development practices and the rising risks of cyber threats. The need for faster and more secure application delivery is driving the market’s growth.
Key factors include the rise in cybercrime, increased internet penetration, and the high cost of data breaches. A recent study revealed that the global average cost of a data breach reached an all-time high of USD 4.35 million in 2023, with 60% of breaches stemming from application vulnerabilities. Organizations are adopting DevSecOps practices to integrate security throughout the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
The migration to cloud environments, along with the deployment of 5G and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, is expected to boost the market share for DevSecOps.
