WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF REVAMPING Defense Cyber Security Market WITH RESPECT TO RUSSIA-UKRAINE CONFLICT

Request Sample

At present, cybersecurity is one of the most critical and national security threats faced by governments across the globe. Countries such as the U.S., China, and India are looking forward to redesigning their defense security norms as a preliminary action against defense cyber security threat management. In January 2020, new guidelines by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) were implemented through Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) for all defense-based contractors. In addition, in the fiscal year 2021 budget, the U.S. DoD spent around USD 5.4 billion on this domain. Thus, the rising awareness regarding cyber threat amongst defense authorities will facilitate the demand for such advanced solutions in near future.


COVID-19 Pandemic Has Negatively Affected Defense Modernization Programs


For the past few years, major defense companies such as Thales Group, Northrop Grumman Corporation, Safran SA, and others have established long term contracts with several countries' governments and governing bodies to install defense cyber security systems. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the uncertainty over the import and export of hardware and services has postponed or cancelled the ongoing contracts between companies and government authorities. Recently, July 2019, Indian military spending on long-term modernization plans was put on hold by the government of India. The modernization of military communication systems and strengthening the cybersecurity domain was put on hold due to the pandemic situation. Similarly Chinese naval programs and the U.S. military programs are impacted by the pandemic.


In addition, it is anticipated that there has been a significant increase in the number of cyberattacks during the pandemic. The change in working rules and regulations for military personnel has increased the number of cyber-attacks in 2020. This is expected to reach over 350 cyberattacks per month. This will largely impact the demand for the cyber security modernization programs for defense.

Emergence of Internet of Things (IoT) in Defense to Accelerate Both Connectivity and Security Risks


The Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that connects distinct objects into larger networks. The IoT refers to networked physical assets such as surveillance drones, fighter aircraft, military vehicles, and others. IoT devices gather and transmit required data on situational metrics, such as temperature, usage, location, and status, that assist militants to get the situational awareness on the desired military battlefield operations.


IoT helps the military in numerous applications, such as gather battlefield awareness in advance, proactive monitoring of combat health, real-time vehicle and fleet management, target recognition and autonomous reconnaissance, data processing using artificial intelligence and machine learning, augmented reality (AR) remote training, and others. Smart border wall is one example that comprises IoT devices such as ground sensors and drones that enable border patrol agents to control illegal immigration effectively.


The rising number of connectivity options will lead to a surge in the security risk of defense systems and components, threby propelling the demand for cyber security solutions of defense and services.


DRIVING FACTORS


Surging Demand for Defense IT Expenditure in Asia Pacific to Boost Defense cyber security Market Growth


According to our research study, Asia Pacific will overtake North America by becoming the highest regional defense spender by 2029. Rising defense expenditure on enhancing the security of military systems and services by governments of major countries such as China, Japan, and India will facilitate the growth of the market across Asia Pacific.


In 2020, the defense budget of China, India, Japan, and South Korea was USD 237 billion, USD 65.8 billion, USD 49 billion, and USD 44 billion, respectively. The Government of India is setting up a cyber agency under the Integrated Defense Staff (IDS) to deal with potent threats in the cyberspace domain. Moreover, governments of Asian countries allocated more than USD 505 billion for the defense sector in 2020 which was 4.3% more than the previous year. The region associated nearly 28% of the global defense spending which was 20% a decade ago.


Governments across Asian countries are focusing on increasing their defense expenditures to strengthen their defense capabilities and curb the cyber threat. It would thus propel the growth of the market.


Transition of Conventional Military Aircraft into Autonomous Aircraft to Propel Growth


The evolution in military warfare techniques has been shifting the focus of military aircraft manufacturers from conventional aircraft to the adoption of autonomous aircraft. Autonomous advanced fighter jets such as Kratos XQ-58 Valkyrie and UTAP-22 Mako jet, an unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs), significantly improve situational awareness and missile-carrying capacity which assists to execute critical battlefield missions during warfare activities. These autonomous aircraft use AI technology for air-to-air communication to tackle critical battlefield situations.


The adoption of artificial intelligence and internet of things (IoT) in aircraft offers ease in executing missions by assisting pilots in critical decision making during warfare, real-time navigation and surveillance, and optimized route determination. The integration of advanced technology minimizes the risk of mission failures. Moreover, next-generation aircraft are equipped with the integrated advanced avionics equipment, cutting edge technology based electronics, and software systems. The rising IoT and AI applications in military aircraft may lead to the development of reliable and enhanced defense cyber security solutions.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Limited Awareness Related to Cybersecurity Certification Process May Limit Market Growth


Small and medium scale firms face issues with the standardization of the operational process and, thus lack the essential quality certifications. Owing to this, these firms fail to build a partnership with major defense cyber security service providers. This, in turn may hinder the long term contracts and agreements with government authorities and private entities. In addition, several small scale companies undergo financial losses owing to sudden changes in the government regulations as the new ones can transform the functionalities and operational processes of small scale firms.


The limited distribution network and presence of American companies in the Middle Eastern and Asian countries is further responsible for impeding the market growth.


SEGMENTATION
