Network Security Policy Management Market to Hit USD 4.4 Billion by 2035, Helping Firms Tackle Cyber Risks
Network Security Policy Management Market
The network security policy management market grows as firms adopt tools to combat rising cyber threats and ensure compliance.
NEWARK, DE, UNITED STATES, August 7, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Network Security Policy Management Market is expected to grow from USD 2.3 billion in 2025 to USD 4.4 billion by 2035, registering a CAGR of 6.7%, signaling a critical transformation in how manufacturers and enterprises manage their cybersecurity posture.
As global businesses face increasing pressure from evolving cyber threats, regulatory compliance mandates, and the rise of hybrid IT environments, network security policy management is rapidly becoming a cornerstone of digital risk management.
Why Manufacturers Are Turning to Network Security Policy Management
Manufacturers, long focused on operational efficiency, are now under siege from an unprecedented surge in cyberattacks targeting connected factories, IoT systems, and supply chains. With every layer of network infrastructure vulnerable to disruption, the need for automated, centralized security policy enforcement has never been more pressing.
NSPM platforms offer a vital solution—providing real-time visibility, policy standardization, and risk-based policy enforcement across complex networks. Manufacturers are increasingly investing in these tools not only to safeguard sensitive production data but also to ensure compliance across multiple jurisdictions, maintain uptime, and support secure innovation at scale.
Software Dominance Signals Shift to Agile, Scalable Protection
The software segment accounted for 61.3% of the market in 2025—a clear reflection of enterprise demand for cloud-compatible, AI-integrated platforms. Software-led security policy management enables rapid deployment, real-time simulation of network changes, and automated rule optimization, ensuring manufacturing operations remain secure without slowing innovation.
This shift is more than just technological—it reflects a strategic move by manufacturers to reduce dependence on siloed, manual security practices and embrace dynamic solutions capable of adapting to multi-cloud and hybrid IT environments.
Security Policy Management: The Foundation of Cyber Resilience
The security policy management solution segment captured nearly half (49.8%) of the market share, emphasizing its role as the operational core of enterprise network security. In the face of growing remote workforce demands, cloud-first strategies, and increased data mobility, manufacturers are leaning on robust policy management systems to maintain consistency, visibility, and control across every digital touchpoint.
With regulatory pressure mounting—especially in data-sensitive sectors like healthcare and energy—enterprises are favoring platforms that support automated compliance reporting, policy conflict resolution, and real-time threat correlation. NSPM is quickly evolving into a mission-critical layer within the modern security stack.
BFSI Leads, But Manufacturing Is Not Far Behind
While the Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector currently dominates with a 26.7% market share, manufacturers are increasingly joining the ranks of high-priority adopters. This shift is driven by a combination of digital factory initiatives, industry 4.0 transformations, and growing ransomware attacks on operational technology (OT) systems.
As manufacturing environments become more digitized, they become ripe targets for cyber threats. By embracing NSPM, industrial organizations can reduce attack surfaces, accelerate incident response, and align with international cybersecurity frameworks like NIST and ISO 27001.
Asia-Pacific and North America Drive the Next Wave of Growth
While North America continues to be a technological stronghold, the Asia-Pacific region—particularly India and China—is emerging as a high-growth market, driven by government digitalization mandates, increased industrial automation, and the rise of local cybersecurity regulations.
With cyberattacks rising rapidly in these regions, manufacturers are being forced to modernize or risk operational shutdowns. The growing awareness of NSPM benefits and regional investment in secure digital infrastructure is propelling adoption rates, setting the stage for a globally synchronized approach to cybersecurity policy management.
Services Segment Set to Accelerate Adoption
Notably, the services segment is projected to grow at 9.0% CAGR, outpacing overall market growth. This signals that manufacturers are not only purchasing solutions—they are seeking ongoing partnerships for configuration, compliance, and management.
From professional services to fully managed offerings, vendors are tailoring solutions for manufacturers who lack internal cybersecurity expertise but recognize the urgent need to fortify their networks. This service-driven model offers flexibility and scalability for enterprises of all sizes, particularly SMEs seeking enterprise-grade protection.
Challenges in Awareness and Investment Remain
Despite rapid growth, challenges persist. Many manufacturers, especially in emerging markets, lack awareness of the true cost of cyber breaches, and as a result, underinvest in preventive solutions like NSPM. In other cases, budget limitations and the perceived complexity of integration deter adoption.
However, as AI-powered threat detection and low-code integration capabilities evolve, these barriers are expected to lower, enabling broader deployment across verticals and enterprise sizes.
