The global market for these security solutions was estimated to reach nearly $3.7 billion in 2016, and it is expected to grow at a steady pace of 25.6% over the next five years to a market size of more than $11.4 billion by 2021. The key segments of IoT security on which most of these solutions focus are providing a strong root of trust at the device layer, crypto-authentication of data (both in motion and at rest) from the edge and across the connectivity network to the cloud, real-time threat detection and IoT security platforms. The largest market subsegment (65% of the market revenues) in 2016 was for the device layer security at nearly $2.4 billion. Solutions that secure IoT device data through hardware (i.e., silicon)-based secure environments, identity access management (IAM) and crypto-authentication solutions that use public key infrastructure (PKI) techniques form the majority of solutions in this subsegment. PKI solutions are also expected to continue to be the dominant technologies for future IoT security solutions, with a handful of vendors such as DigiCert, Symantec and GlobalSign already providing end-to-end IoT PKI solutions with an expectation that more players will be joining this technology space in the next few years. Hardware-based solutions (e.g., network security appliances, chip level security) form the largest type of security solutions, with 77% of solutions falling in this category. This is not surprising, as it is commonly known that software-based solutions are easier to hack, whereas hardware-embedded security is more secure and provides a higher trust level. The industrial IoT (IIoT) had seen the highest adoption (41%) for IoT security solutions until recently, as the value of lost business due to data security breaches is considered to be high. Consumer IoT, however, is still lagging in its uptake of security solutions, which is a paradox, as these were the easiest targets for most of the malicious IoT data breaches that took place in 2016. These vertical markets will continue to grow in importance as new niche solutions that address the unique needs of IoT applications emerge in the next five years. In 2016, the IoT security solutions marketspace was highly fragmented with a handful of established security solution vendors followed by numerous growing small private vendors and startups. Looking ahead, the North America and European region will continue to dominate the startup scene for IoT solutions and be the technology innovation hotbed, with the establishment of many IoT innovations centers by such entities as Cisco, IBM, Microsoft and AT&T. The 2016 market leaders for commercial security solutions were Intel, Gemalto, NXP Semiconductors, Microchip, Cisco and Symantec. Together these vendors accounted for nearly 30% of the market. Further consolidation of players in this market is expected, as the next few years will be ripe for acquisitions and mergers with large IT services and network solution companies trying to build comprehensive and profitable IoT solution portfolios. This is a move already seen with numerous IoT- related acquisitions by Intel, Cisco, Qualcomm and IBM within the last two years. On the technology front, IoT security platforms are seeing good traction and will likely comprise the winning strategy in the next five years. Blockchain and hypervisors are seeing a considerable push in application for IoT security. With the establishment of data security standards and device security regulations, the market is expected to see further activity and growth potential, especially in the European and Asia-Pacific region. The largest regional market will continue to be North America. The maturity of the U.S. IoT market will continue to be a driver for growth in the North American market. The IoT security solutions market is also moving gradually to the cloud-based model, a trend that is expected to only become stronger in the overall IoT market. Many current IoT security solutions vendors are already offering cloud-based subscription model pricing and deployment for their solutions. This trend is expected to be a growth driver as these solutions become more cost-efficient for small- and medium-sized IoT projects. The strong collaboration between the business, government and consumer sides of IoT for standards and better security for the connected world is the key driver for the IoT security solutions market, and it will help build new innovative security solutions and standards that will give a strong foundation for the development of this market in the future.
