North America is estimated to dominate the cybersecurity market in 2019 while APAC projected to have the highest
North America is estimated to hold the largest share of the cybersecurity market in 2019, due to technological advancements and the early adoption of cybersecurity in the region. The market in Asia Pacific (APAC) is expected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2019 and 2023.

The primary forces driving this growth are increasing technology adoption, huge opportunities across industry verticals, and strict directives for data privacy in APAC countries, especially India and China. Moreover, CISOs and business heads are concerned about the growing number of breaches in the especially in the APAC region due to lack of awareness or carelessness towards network traffic flow. This has led to a repaid growth in the demand for automated cybersecurity solutions for proactive threat intelligence and mitigation.

Cybersecurity spending in Europe has been increasing to address privacy and data security concerns
Europe holds the second highest share in the cybersecurity market, with the need to comply with GDPR guidelines and address vulnerabilities to avoid data misuse. Moreover, with the rise in digitalization in Europe, the connected ecosystem is expected to quadruple from 2016 to 2021. As per the latest updates, the EU Cybersecurity Act is proposed to come into force on 27th June 2019. The act aims to build a safer cyber environment through an EU-wide framework for businesses to achieve cybersecurity certification for their Information and Communications Technology (ICT) products, processes, and services. This is in line with the growing need for effective and coordinated responses and crisis management at the EU level. MarketsandMarkets
