The phishing protection market is being driven by the rising awareness about the benefits provided by phishing protection solutions and services, including real-time protection, sensitive data protection, mitigation techniques, and multi-factor authentication (MFA), among others. Risk-based authentication is gaining traction as consumers adopt more customized and effective phishing security tactics for protecting their confidential information. This method evaluates several factors, such as device type, location, and user behavior, to determine the level of risk linked with each login attempt. In the case of high-risk logins, additional authentication factors, such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) are required to verify the user's identity and prevent unauthorized access. This strategy balancing security and usability by guaranteeing robust protection against phishing assaults without interfering with legitimate users' experience is boosting the phishing protection market.

On the basis of deployment, the phishing protection market is divided into on-premise and cloud. The cloud segment is anticipated to hold a significant phishing protection market share by 2030. The cloud platform plays a major role in the protection of information and data in any organization.

For instance, key players in the phishing protection market such as Mimecast Services Limited and Broadcom Inc are investing in the development of cloud-based email security software to support their customers in preventing phishing emails, which is driving the segment. Cloud-based phishing protection software can easily accommodate the needs of large and small businesses as well as rapidly growing companies. This software supports the business to adapt to changing requirements and provides real-time protection against phishing attacks. Cloud-based phishing protection software actively monitors and blocks phishing attempts by filtering emails, texts, and other communication channels before they reach the user's mailbox, which is expected to favor the growth of the cloud segment during the forecast period.
