MARKET DYNAMICS

MARKET DRIVERS

Rising Ransomware and Cyberattacks On Healthcare Networks to Drive Market Growth

The primary factor driving market growth is the increasing threat of cyberattacks on various healthcare networks. With the broader adoption of connected medical devices and the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) ecosystem, the importance of cybersecurity has heightened. The healthcare sector faces an escalating threat from ransomware attacks targeting medical devices. These attacks not only compromise patient data but also pose direct risks to patient safety by potentially disrupting critical care equipment. These factors drive demand in the global market and boost the medical device security market growth.

For instance, in October 2024, the American Hospital Association reports that healthcare cybersecurity threats continued unabated last year, with more than 386 documented attacks against medical facilities and critical service providers.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

Data Breaches and PHI Exposure to Impede Market Growth

Data breaches and the exposure of protected health information act as a significant market restraint. Frequent data breaches erode trust, making healthcare providers more cautious about new digital and connected device initiatives, which in turn hampers their productivity. These factors also slow down the overall market's adoption, posing a significant challenge to growth.

  • For example, in August 2025, CPAP Medical Supplies and Services Inc. (CPAP Medical) reported a major data breach, potentially involving unauthorized access to the personal and protected health information of up to 90,133 patients. Such factors can restrict the market growth.

MARKET OPPORTUNITIES

Expansion of Remote Patient Monitoring and Cloud-Connected Medical Technologies To Offer Market Growth Opportunities

The expansion of remote patient monitoring (RPM) and cloud-connected medical technologies creates a significant growth opportunity, as it extends the user base beyond hospitals. With the increasing trend of telehealth consultations, adoption of remote patient monitoring, smart wearables, and the expansion of medical device applications in remote settings, the demand for medical device security solutions also rises.   

  • For instance, in April 2025, the American Hospital Association (AHA) Center for Health Innovation reported that the FDA cleared an Apple Watch–powered platform for seizure monitoring. Such developments underscore how consumer wearables and cloud-connected monitoring software are expanding remote monitoring beyond hospitals, creating new opportunities for providers and digital health vendors.

MARKET CHALLENGES

Long Replacement Cycle to Pose as a Critical Challenge to Market Growth

A long replacement cycle is a critical challenge in the market. Hospitals often retain high-cost equipment, such as imaging systems, patient monitors, infusion pumps, and lab analyzers, for extended periods. The software used by these systems is old and does not have security patches. That creates a growing pool of old medical devices that are difficult to replace. These factors can result in vulnerabilities in medical devices that can linger for years.

  • For instance, in October 2025, the director of the Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust stated that 2% of the trust’s devices have not been upgraded because the current version of the software used by medical device suppliers does not work on Windows 11. These factors pose a significant challenge to the market.

Segmentation Analysis

By Offering

Adoption of Medical Device Security Solutions Due to Importance of Advanced Technology for Protection to Propel Segmental Growth

Based on the offering, the market is divided into solutions and services.

The solutions segment is expected to account for the largest share of the market. The high segmental share is due to large volume utilization by healthcare enterprises and the critical importance of advanced technology for protection. The adoption of solutions such as IoMT visibility platforms, network segmentation, firewalls, NAC, SIEM/SOC, and identity and access solutions, among others, is increasing. These solutions are used to monitor behavior and enforce policies. Such advantages will further strengthen this segment’s market position.

Furthermore, numerous innovative launches in these solutions by key companies will support the market growth.

  • For instance, in December 2022, Palo Alto Networks launched a spin-off from its IoT product, which previously covered other related areas such as IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) and OT (Operational Technology), focusing on medical devices. Such developments are anticipated to drive the market growth.

The services segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.14% over the forecast period.

By Type

Advantages of Network Security Over Other Types Boosted Segment Growth of Network & IoMT Security

Based on type, the market is segmented into network & IoMT security, endpoint security, application security, cloud security, and others.

In 2025, the network & IoMT security segment dominated the global market. The dominance of this segment is attributed to the increasing number of connected devices, which makes them vulnerable to sophisticated threats. Unlike closed legacy systems, such as endpoints, where frequent agent or patch updates are deployed, securing the network layer is a most feasible alternative to protect numerous devices through automatic discovery, traffic profiling, segmentation, and anomaly detection. These factors highlight the advantages of network security over other security solutions and reinforce the segment's dominance.

  • For instance, in October 2024, Forescout Technologies, Inc., published the report titled “Unveiling the Persistent Risks of Connected Medical Devices”. The report analyzed more than 2 million devices across 45 healthcare delivery organizations (HDOs) during the last week of May 2024 and reported 52% of IoMT devices were running Windows software, while only 10% of all IoMT devices were actively running anti-malware. A single weak point can lead to a sensitive patient data breach. Such factors make endpoint protection more challenging and highlight the need for stronger network security.

The application security segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 14.90% during the forecast period for the market.

By End User

Strategic Collaboration of Hospital Pharmacies with Key Market Players Have Kept Healthcare Providers Them in the Leading Position

Based on end user, the market is segmented into healthcare providers, healthcare payers, Medical Device Manufacturers (MDMs), and others.

The healthcare providers dominated the global market. Their dominance in the end-user segment is due to the availability of large volumes of medical devices in these settings. Healthcare providers, such as hospitals and health systems, have diverse fleets of connected equipment and their own networks, which are used for patient safety, the uptime of critical services, and the protection of public health information. These factors result in providers being the primary customers for IoMT platforms, network security, and managed detection services, giving them the largest revenue share in the market.  Furthermore, the segment is set to hold a 76.99% share in 2026.

  • For instance, in June 2023, Franciscan Health collaborated with Fortinet Security Fabric Solutions to protect its IoT medical devices from the rising threat of cyberattacks. Such collaborations and partnerships are needed to drive the growth of the segment.

In addition, the healthcare payers segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 15.93% during the study period.
