APAC Cybersecurity - Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts (2026 - 2031)
Market Report I 2026-02-09 I 100 Pages I Mordor Intelligence
APAC Cybersecurity Market Analysis
The APAC cybersecurity market was valued at USD 74.22 billion in 2025 and estimated to grow from USD 84.25 billion in 2026 to reach USD 158.96 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 13.52% during the forecast period (2026-2031). Heightened state-sponsored attacks, accelerating 5G roll-outs, surging digital-payment fraud, and chronic talent shortages are reshaping budget priorities, while local data-protection rules are recasting procurement in favor of regionally domiciled vendors. Competition now hinges less on product features and more on the ability to deliver sovereign-cloud architectures, AI-driven managed detection, and integrated IT-OT security across fragmented regulatory environments. Opportunities abound for providers that combine localized threat intelligence with scalable managed services, especially in mid-market segments underserved by in-house security expertise.
APAC Cybersecurity Market Trends and Insights
Government Data-Sovereignty Mandates Accelerating Domestic Cybersecurity Spend Across APAC
China's Network Data Security Management Regulations taking effect in 2025 require in-country data processing and create separate security stacks for multinationals operating inside China. Singapore's refreshed Cyber Essentials program ties government contracts to vendor certification, driving local provider demand. Australia's REDSPICE initiative allocates AUD 2 billion to a sovereign cloud for the intelligence community, illustrating how policy translates directly into cybersecurity outlays. Vendors now localize R&D centers and SOCs to preserve market access, while homegrown specialists gain a compliance-driven edge.
5G Roll-Outs Creating New Network Threat Surfaces for Telcos in Japan, South Korea and India
High-throughput 5G architectures introduce micro-slicing and edge-compute nodes that traditional perimeter tools cannot secure. Japan's Active Cyber Defense law authorizes pre-emptive disruption of cyber threats targeting telecom networks. South Korea logged 1.56 million hacking attempts on public networks in 2024, 80% aimed at 5G and IoT endpoints. India's operators report that 57% of breaches result in service slowdowns, highlighting the urgency for zero-trust and AI-driven analytics. Consequently, demand is rising for secure access service edge (SASE) platforms and virtualized firewalls optimized for carrier environments.
Acute Cybersecurity Talent Shortage Inflating Service Costs in Emerging APAC Economies
The region accounts for 2.8 million unfilled cyber roles, restricting managed-service scalability and pushing salaries beyond SME budgets. The Philippines counts only 200 certified specialists versus Singapore's 3,000, amplifying project delays. Vietnam earmarked USD 100 million for workforce programs to train 1,000 experts and 5,000 engineers by 2025. Scarcity is most severe in OT security and cloud architecture, forcing enterprises to outsource functions or postpone deployments, dampening addressable demand.
Other drivers and restraints analyzed in the detailed report include:

Segment Analysis
Solutions retained 57.05% revenue in 2025, yet managed security services are projected to expand 20.86% CAGR through 2031 as enterprises confront staffing gaps. The APAC cybersecurity market favors providers that bundle 247 SOC monitoring, threat hunting, and incident response under outcome-based SLAs. Ensign InfoSecurity became the only APAC firm to reach the global top-10 MSSP list in 2024, signaling the region's ascent in managed-service maturity.
Rising wages for in-house analysts, coupled with board-level accountability for breaches, push even large enterprises to co-manage security tools with external SOCs. AI-assisted triage and automation enable MSSPs to serve mid-market clients profitably, widening adoption. As a result, investment in platform-based service delivery is accelerating, with providers embedding XDR, SOAR, and machine-learning analytics to differentiate.
On-premise installations held 61.88% of APAC cybersecurity market share in 2025 because regulated sectors still favor physical control over data. Cloud-native security, however, is growing at 22.8% CAGR, propelled by remote-work mandates and multi-cloud adoption. A HashiCorp survey showed 70% of regional firms hit business targets via multi-cloud, with 90% rating security the defining success factor.
Organizations are embracing zero-trust networking and container security to protect workloads that span CSPs and edge nodes. Skills shortages remain a headwind-31% cite limited cloud expertise-but vendors counter with low-code policy orchestration and managed SASE offerings. Consequently, cloud deployments increasingly win green-field projects, while hybrid architectures emerge as a transition path for legacy systems.
