Global Crowdsourced Security Market Set to Grow at 7.9% CAGR, Reaching $245.4 Million by 2033

The global crowdsourced security Industry size is anticipated to exceed a valuation of US$ 114.4 million in 2023. It is projected to hit a valuation of US$ 245.4 million by 2033. The market is predicted to thrive at a CAGR of 7.9% from 2023 to 2033.

Compared to engaging specialized in-house security teams or carrying out conventional penetration testing, crowdsourced security is possibly an affordable option. Instead of paying fixed salaries or high consulting costs, organizations may use crowdsourcing platforms to interact with multiple security professionals at once, paying only for the vulnerabilities found or successful tests run.

By showcasing a proactive attitude to security, crowdsourced security efforts may improve an organization’s image. Organizations may build trust with their user base, customers, and stakeholders by encouraging security researchers to properly report vulnerabilities. For instance,

  • A bug bounty program was started on HackerOne by NordVPN, a personal virtual private network service provider. It is part of a strategy to update VPN companies’ security measures.

The BFSI sector is increasingly adopting crowdsourced security. The BFSI industry is a top target for cyber assaults because of the sensitive and priceless information it manages, including:

  • Financial data
  • Personally identifiable information (PII).
  • Transactional records.

The industry is subject to changing cyber threats including advanced hacking methods, malware, phishing assaults, and insider threats. By utilizing the skills of ethical hackers to find vulnerabilities and upgrade security procedures, crowdsourced security helps the BFSI industry boost its defenses.

North America is likely to dominate the global market. With a sizable number of companies operating across several industries, North America market accounts for a sizeable portion of the global economy. With such a wide range of businesses, from SMEs to huge international firms, crowdsourced security providers have many potentials to serve all types of businesses.
