The embedded security market size was valued at USD 8.04 billion in 2021 and is projected to grow from USD 8.23 billion in 2022 to USD 17.03 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 10.9%. Asia Pacific dominated the global market with a share of 54.1% in 2021.


The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with embedded security experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. Based on our analysis, the global market exhibited a decline of -9.2% in 2020 as compared to 2019. Embedded security is a strategic way to protect various software operating on embedded systems. It is a hardware component which is used while working with software. The systems are designed in that way to perform specialized security functions. It is mainly available in process control units, aircraft, consumer electronics, hybrid cars, and other appliances. It is an extremely reliable system which is capable of handling all types of uncertainty in security systems. The firmware inside the security system is difficult to change or update. However, the systems are usually designed to have a life of more than 15 years. With the emergence of Internet of Things (IoT) and industrial automation, the capacity of embedded platform security system is changing as the number of cyber-attack is growing rapidly. With the emergence of connected devices, the importance of embedded device security has increased.


The global connected security market has seen a significant increase in the last decades, and also is predicted to increase gradually during the forecast period. However, surge in the COVID-19 cases force a global lockdown in all countries. This resulted into the shutdown of manufacturing plants and the disruption of supply chains of raw materials in several countries. Also, the increasing digital revolution and advanced technology namely IoT and connected technology in developing countries are anticipated to propel the embedded security market growth in the forecast period.


COVID-19 IMPACT


Market Growth Driven During Pandemic Due to Rising Demand for Securing Connected Devices


COVID-19 had an exceptional effect on global business, industries, and societies. Various technologies developed and evolved during COVID-19 pandemic. People have become more technologically aware while working remotely. The use of technologies such as internet of things, automation, and artificial intelligence is increases in every sector. The embedded devices are major part of this technology, so the demand for embedded and connected security devices is increased in last two years, and this trend continues during forecast period. 


However, the global lockdown imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic created a major supply chain disturbance in the embedded security market. Due to that, the logistics movement of raw material and finished goods became critical for manufacturers and suppliers. Also skilled labors which are essential for the development and manufacturing of various security devices had migrated to their native places. Which led to the shutdown of industry verticals such as manufacturing units of automotive vehicles and aerospace and defense equipment. Nevertheless, the growing use of emerging technology for securing connected devices in developing countries has been responsible for an increase in the installation of high end security systems in research labs, factories, shop floors, railways, telecommunication systems, defense equipment, and aircraft. Emerging countries in the world are experiencing vital improvement in implementation of high end security solutions and automation that increased the active use of intelligent security devices. Furthermore, many non-government and government organizations such as the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology of India, Cyber Security and Infrastructure Agency of the U.S., European Union Agency for Cyber Security, and others have been implementing various procedures to reduce the threats of cyber-attack, increase system security, and reliability which is driving the global market.

Rise in Embedded Security Demand Due to Growing Number of IoT Applications


Nowadays, technology is booming more than ever. Every day, technology evolves and brings new techniques and functionality. It is not only about computers and mobile apps. It is all about artificial intelligence and IoT-based devices which are immensely used in day to day human life. The emergence of IoT is growing in each and every industry vertical. It is used in industrial automation, healthcare devices, airplanes, wearable technology, smart home units, automobile, and others. Authentication and access management have become essential in case of smart home. This increasing use of IoT increases the chances of various security issues related to connected devices. This also increases the chances of external cyber threats to attack running systems, which will damage the operation of the device and cause data loss. To avoid this condition, the use of embedded security devices is on the rise.


EMBEDDED SECURITY MARKET GROWTH FACTORS


Market Value to Surge Due to Increased Demand for Embedded Security in Electric and Hybrid Vehicles


The electrical vehicle market is continuously developing and becoming mature day by day. Customers are actively looking for vehicles that do not rely on conventional fossil fuels.

The security of this charging point is essential to protect their critical infrastructure. The complex architecture and various safety challenges in the electric vehicle and charging point make it difficult to manage all security challenges in the system. Embedded device security system helps to solve this problem. Electric vehicle security is important with the increased number of embedded and connected software in cars. The growing number of electric vehicles and connected devices in smart and hybrid cars increases the requirement of embedded device security hardware in electric vehicles.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Industry Growth to be Restrained Due to Lack of Professional Workers and Huge Initial Investment


This system has become popular in some past years. However, the basic price of single physical security device and communication security devices are more than conventional security system. The internal components namely transmitters, receivers, and sensors used in security system are costlier, which are directly impacting the primary retail price of the system. Moreover, the renewal of existing security system and adoption of the new embedded technology is not cost effective for SME industries and individual users. Also, unavailability of professional workers which is required for manufacturing of embedded devices may restrain the growth of the embedded security market throughout forecast period.
