IoT Security Global Market Report 2026

IoT security pertains to protective measures for cloud-connected devices such as home automation tools, SCADA machines, and security cameras linked directly to the cloud.

Primary types of IoT security include network security, endpoint security, application security, cloud security, among others. Network security involves rule sets and configurations to ensure the integrity, confidentiality, and accessibility of computer networks and data, using software and hardware technologies. Components of the IoT security market comprise solutions and services. Its applications span across healthcare, infrastructure, industrial systems, smart home technology, and transportation sectors.

Tariffs have impacted the IoT security market by increasing the cost of imported security hardware, network appliances, and embedded security modules. These increases have affected deployments across industrial systems, smart homes, and infrastructure projects, particularly in regions dependent on cross-border technology supply chains such as Asia-Pacific and Europe. Higher costs have slowed some implementations but increased demand for software-based and cloud security solutions. In the long term, tariffs are driving innovation in domestic security technologies and strengthening regional cybersecurity ecosystems.

This iot security market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

The iot security market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $11.22 billion in 2025 to $14.86 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 32.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increase in connected device deployments, rise in iot cyberattacks, lack of standardized security protocols, early smart home adoption, growing enterprise network exposure.

The iot security market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $45.11 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 32.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of critical iot infrastructure, regulatory compliance requirements, adoption of ai-based security analytics, growth of smart cities, increasing cloud-connected devices. Major trends in the forecast period include zero trust security frameworks for iot, device identity and authentication solutions, cloud-based iot security platforms, ai-driven threat detection for iot, end-to-end encryption for connected devices.

The increasing number of cyberattacks is expected to propel the growth of the IoT security market going forward. A cyberattack is any attempt to illicitly access a computer, network, or system with the intent to steal, damage, or disrupt data and operations. The rise in cyberattacks is due to society's growing dependence on digital technologies, which expands the number of potential targets and vulnerabilities for malicious actors. IoT security solutions help protect networks, devices, and data from unauthorized access and potential breaches. For instance, in October 2025, according to the Australian Signals Directorate, a Australia-based government agency, in FY2024-25, the Australian Signals Directorate's (ASD) Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) received over 42,500 calls to the Australian Cyber Security Hotline, marking a 16% rise from the previous year. Therefore, the rising number of cyberattacks is driving the growth of the IoT security market.

Leading companies in the IoT security market are concentrating on launching advanced solutions, such as cybersecurity platforms, to enhance their competitive positioning. Cybersecurity platforms are centralized solutions that integrate security visibility, analysis, and controls across multiple layers and data sources, thereby improving protection, scalability, and performance. For example, in May 2023, Trend Micro Inc., a US-based IT security firm, unveiled Trend Vision One. This unified cybersecurity platform is designed to help organizations prepare for, withstand, and swiftly recover from threats while empowering their security teams. Trend Vision One includes support for IoT security and provides comprehensive protection across various domains, including operational technology (OT), which involves IoT devices. The platform accommodates hybrid environments, ensuring strong security across endpoints, servers, cloud services, and networks. Additionally, it features a wide array of native security sensors that deliver extensive protection against a broad spectrum of threats.

In September 2023, SecurityBridge GmbH, a Germany-based cybersecurity solutions provider, successfully acquired Protect4S for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition is poised to strengthen SecurityBridge's capacity to provide heightened security solutions to SAP customers while introducing cutting-edge cybersecurity research within the industry. Protect4S, a Netherlands-based SAP security specialist, had previously collaborated with SecurityBridge to enhance SAP security measures.
