Increase in adoption of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solutions

The increase in adoption of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solutions is another major driver of the market growth of managed security services in Saudi Arabia. IIoT solutions are generally used to connect, monitor devices and machines in industrial environments, leading to improved efficiency, productivity, and cost savings. However, with the increased connectivity of IIoT solutions in industrial systems are proliferating the new security risk as these industrial machines are vulnerable to cyberattacks. IIoT devices and sensors that are used in critical infrastructure sectors such as oil and gas, power and water utilities, transportation, and manufacturing are often vulnerable to cyber-attacks, which can result in operational downtime, physical damage, and even loss of life.

Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) can drive the market of managed security services (MSS). The practice of allowing employees to use their personal devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops, for work purposes is referred to as "bring your own device" (BYOD). To safeguard confidential corporate data and networks, robust security measures are required as the use of bring your own device (BYOD) grows in organizations. The adoption of BYOD introduces additional security challenges, as personal devices may not have the same level of security controls as corporate devices. This can increase the risk of data breaches, malware infections, and other security incidents. Managed security services (MSS) are outsourced security solutions provided by specialized companies to manage and monitor an organization's security infrastructure.

In addition, these services enable enterprises to implement security policies, enforce access controls, conduct security assessments, and provide ongoing monitoring and management of BYOD devices to ensure that they are secure and compliant with the organization's security policies. Furthermore, MSS have the ability to include services such as threat detection and response, security monitoring, vulnerability management, and incident response, among others. These services help organizations to protect their BYOD devices and comply with cybersecurity regulations. To overcome the threat, enterprises may require specialized MSS to implement security controls and monitors specifically tailored for BYOD environments. Therefore, MSS providers have the expertise and tools to implement and manage security measures to protect an organization's IT assets and data from potential cyber threats. Thus, implementation of bring your own device (BYOD) are attributing the demand of managed security services in the Saudi Arabia Market.
