The security analytics market was valued at US$2.981 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 33.65% to reach a market size of US$22.705 billion by the year 2026. Security analytics tools are very crucial for any form of enterprise as these tools enable to identify and rank threats according to priority, plan appropriate responses and launch them against threats. Security infrastructure is required in every type of organization irrespective of the size of a company or the kind of information is stored in the organization.

Security analytics mechanisms help companies to execute real-time monitoring of servers consolidate and coordinate diverse event data from an application, endpoints and network traffic, and network logs. It also performs forensic analysis to better comprehend attack methods and system vulnerabilities. The key drivers of the security analytics market are the rise in the level of sophistication of security breaches and threats, rapidly growing compliance requirements, and stringent regulations. In addition, the growing numbers of cyber threats from advanced targeted attacks (ATA) or advanced persistent threats (APT) are projected to propel market growth.  Often, the APTs or ATAs remained undetected, due to which they stay within the enterprise networks for a longer period; this causes severe damages to the network infrastructure. To prevent such attacks companies can implement real-time monitoring of servers, endpoints, network traffic, network logs, and diverse event data from applications and perform forensic analysis by adopting security analytics solutions. Thus, to curb and prevent such attacks the adoption of security analytics is bound to prevail to easily detect and remediate these threats.

The standard security solutions, fail to detect data leakages owing to which the companies suffer huge data breaches and threats. According to a report by FireEye, Inc., 2017, it takes a median time of 99 days to detect an ATP or ATA. The damage caused by the treats these days is severe. By adopting security analytics, such threats can easily be identified and prevented, this adoption will subsequently accelerate the market growth for the security analytics market during the forecast period.

By application, the network security analytics segment is expected to hold a dominant market share as it has the largest source of demand for security analytics solutions, globally. By service, the managed service segment is estimated to grow significantly to assist the customers for the efficient use and maintenance of security analytics solutions, the managed service providers are largely adopting the solutions. Also, the increasing requirements of organizations to adhere to various regulatory compliances across the world will further support market growth.  By deployment method, the cloud deployment method is projected to have a noteworthy market share during the forecast period as cloud deployment solutions can Organization Size without the need of Information Technology staff to manage the software. This helps the companies to reduce additional costs and cut down on expenditure. By organization size, large organizations are expected to witness significant market growth owing to voluminous data available in the database. By vertical, the Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) industry is estimated to have a noteworthy market share owing to the increasing phishing attacks and frauds in third party payment integrations, rising risks from accessing mobile banking applications, and stringent government regulatory requirements.

Geographically, the security analytics market is set to expand in the North American region owing to rising incidents of security infringement, prolonged sophisticated attacking, and the presence of outdated defense mechanisms in the organizations in the region.

According to a report by IBM and Ponemon Institute, the cost of a breach in the United States is estimated at USD 7.35 million or nearly double the USD 3.62 million it costs globally. Thus, organizations in the United States are increasingly adopting security analytics solutions to prevent such attacks. The Asia Pacific is also set to witness a high market growth on account of increased networking activities by the two nations of the region India and China. These two nations have started to engage in the digitization of businesses and also cloud services are also increasingly being deployed by small, medium, and large enterprises.

Growth Factors.
