TRENDS, KEY FIGURES, AND OUTLOOK OF THE NDR MARKET

MID-TERM OVERVIEW: EXPONENTIAL GROWTH DRIVEN BY THE OECD

The global NDR market volume is expected to increase from $2.42 billion in 2023 to $6.44 billion by 2030, with an annual growth rate of 15% during the study period (Gartner 2023).

North America accounts for 36% of the NDR sector's market value (Exactitude Consultancy, 2024). In Europe, the enforcement of NIS 2 regulations and their transposition in EU member countries are expected to be a rapid growth driver.

Among the factors explaining this overall increase in demand:

• the expansion of the attack surface with the proliferation of connected devices and hybrid environments;
• the transfer of companies' strategic data to the cloud;
• the specific targeting of the network in attackers' modus operandi;
• the gradual automation of services through the integration of AI.

STRONG DEMAND AMONG LARGE ORGANIZATIONS

A direct and ongoing correlation is observed between the size of organizations and their interest in NDR solutions: the larger an organization is, the more likely it is to invest in these advanced solutions by allocating significant human and technical resources. Nevertheless, mid-sized organizations are showing an increasing awareness of the importance of network traffic monitoring. A catch-up effect is expected in the long term.

A NUANCED INTEREST ACCORDING TO SECTORS

In terms of sector studies, unsurprisingly, the sectors most exposed to threats (finance, government, energy, communications, education, etc.) show the highest interest in NDR solutions. This is partly because they may be subject to stricter security policy regulations, and partly because they are affected by the severe deterioration of the geopolitical context and the global influence war.

A FUTURE ORIENTED TOWARDS THE CLOUD

Gartner's forecasts suggest that by 2029, over 50% of incidents discovered by NDR technology will stem from network activity in the cloud, compared to less than 10% today. This transition highlights the growing importance of the cloud in companies' cybersecurity strategies and sheds light on the adaptability required of NDR solutions to meet these new challenges.

AUTOMATION: THE KEY TO SUCCESS

Despite these advances, challenges remain, including the implementation of automated responses to network anomaly detection, which is expected to remain below 40% of detected anomalies by 2027. This gap underscores the need for companies to continue investing in the development of their automated response capabilities to maximize the effectiveness of their NDR solutions.

CONCLUSION: NO CLOUDS OVER THE NDR MARKET BY 2030, BUT AN IMPERATIVE FOR AUTOMATION

By offering companies the ability to quickly detect and efficiently respond to threats, even the most sophisticated, NDR solutions do more than protect digital assets: they reduce the costs associated with security incidents and contribute to building a safer environment. With the constant evolution of the threat landscape and the shift of corporate data to the cloud, the NDR market is expected to continue its strong momentum and record a significant increase in the medium term, provided its solutions are automated.
