As reported by the Computing Technology Industry Association, a US-based non-profit organization renowned for issuing professional certifications in the information technology industry, the information technology sector is anticipated to witness a 4% increase in 2021, reaching a market value of $5 trillion. Consequently, the heightened integration of digital technologies in industrial systems stands as a driving force behind the growth of the operational technology (OT) security market.

The growing prevalence of remote work is poised to significantly contribute to the expansion of the operational technology (OT) security market in the foreseeable future. Remote work, defined as the practice of conducting work outside a traditional office environment, introduces challenges related to the secure handling of sensitive operational data. To ensure data privacy, maintain regulatory compliance, and protect against unauthorized access to confidential information, the implementation of robust OT security measures becomes imperative in remote work scenarios. Notably, in September 2022, a report from the United States Census Bureau, a government agency, highlighted that nearly half of the workforce in the District of Columbia, comprising 48.3%, embraced remote work - marking the highest percentage of home-based workers among states and state equivalents in 2021. Moreover, states with notable proportions of remote workers included Washington (24.2%), Maryland (24.0%), Colorado (23.7%), and Massachusetts (23.7%). Consequently, the escalating trend of remote work stands as a key driver behind the growth of the operational technology (OT) security market.

The proliferation of digital technologies within industrial systems is expected to propel the expansion of the operational technology (OT) security market in the foreseeable future. This advancement encompasses automation enhancements, preventative maintenance protocols, self-optimization for process improvements, and notably, heightened efficiency and responsiveness in addressing customer needs. Operational technology security assumes a pivotal role within operational and enterprise environments due to its ability to form a robust foundation in confronting challenges posed by digital technologies. It facilitates the seamless adoption of new technologies within operational settings while underscoring the paramount importance of safety and security. For instance, statistics released by the Computing Technology Industry Association, a renowned US-based non-profit organization specializing in professional certifications for the information technology industry, project a 4% increase in the information technology sector, expected to reach $5 trillion by 2021.
