According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Middle East & Africa privileged access management (PAM) solutions market was valued at US$ 132.83 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 268.52 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 9.2% from 2023 to 2031. Rise in demand for protection against insider threats and increase in number of cyberattacks are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Middle East & Africa privileged access management (PAM) solutions market growth.
In recent years, businesses are facing the continuous threat of cyberattacks. According to Embroker Insurance Services LLC, cyberattacks were considered the fifth top-rated risk in 2020, and cases continue to rise with technological advancements. Computer malware, data breaches, and denial of service (DoS) are a few examples of cyberattacks. During the COVID-19 pandemic, cybercriminals took advantage of misaligned networks as businesses were shifting to remote working environments. According to OneLogin, cybercrime costs more than US$ 1 trillion worldwide, as 37% of organizations were affected by ransomware and 61% were affected by malware attacks in 2020. Cyber threats are considered a major concern as various organizations continue to operate in a digital environment. They have serious consequences for individuals, corporations, and governments. The rise in the number of cyberattacks has increased the importance of cybersecurity to safeguard critical infrastructures and to ensure the safety of individuals and organizations. Organizations are increasingly becoming aware of the need to safeguard their critical assets from unauthorized access and potential breaches. Privileged accounts, which have elevated access privileges within an organization's systems and networks, are prime targets for cybercriminals due to their extensive control and access to sensitive information and critical systems. To address this growing threat, robust PAM solutions are being implemented. PAM solutions help organizations effectively manage and secure privileged accounts by enforcing the principle of least privilege, which limits access to only what is necessary for users to perform their tasks. Organizations can reduce their attack surface by minimizing the number of privileged account holders and rights associated with each account by implementing PAM solutions. This active approach significantly mitigates the risk of unauthorized access and potential breaches. Thus, the increasing number of cyberattacks is a significant factor propelling the growth of the privileged access management (PAM) solutions market.
On the flip side, high cost of implementation hampers the growth of Middle East & Africa privileged access management (PAM) solutions market.
