Vulnerability Management Market, Global, 2024–2029
Description
Vulnerabilities are errors or weaknesses within a software program, network, application, or endpoint that enable an unauthorized user to access sensitive data, gain control, or deny access to authorized users. At a high level, Frost & Sullivan defines vulnerability management (VM) as a platform that offers vulnerability assessment, prioritization, and triggers an appropriate remediation response.
Organizations have deployed VM tools for the last two decades. Despite that, vulnerabilities are a growing nightmare for CISOs, partly because the attack surface has expanded significantly. The challenge of vulnerability discovery and prioritization is further exacerbated by the widespread use of artificial intelligence (AI) agents and tools by employees and customers. This underscores the urgency of addressing the expanding attack surface and the large volume of vulnerabilities that security teams face.
The VM market is on the cusp of a technology refresh cycle. As vulnerability discovery becomes standardized, prioritization and remediation have become focus areas for the innovation pipeline. Leading VM vendors are transitioning from traditional vulnerability scanners to comprehensive exposure management solutions, incorporating as many elements of risk management into their portfolio as possible.
In this study, Frost & Sullivan classifies three different VM product types:
• Vulnerability assessment: A platform or tool that scans the network, devices, applications, and other IT environments to discover vulnerabilities
• Vulnerability prioritization and remediation (VPR): A platform or tool that ingests vulnerability data from various sources, prioritizes the vulnerabilities based on risk level or other metrics, and provides remediation options
• VM-as-a-Service (VMaaS): A platform that offers VM as an outsourced service from a managed service provider (some VM vendors offer VMaaS to small and mid-size organizations)
This study focuses on market trends and the global growth outlook for VM solutions with a deep-dive analysis of regions, including North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), Asia-Pacific (APAC), and Central and Latin America (CALA).
