India’s expenditure on information security represents a 17.1% increase over the $2.9 billion in expected spending from the previous year.
In India, end-user spending on information security is expected to reach $3.4 billion in 2025, a 17.1% rise over the $2.9 billion anticipated last year.A number of things are to blame for this increase in investment, one of which is the recent CrowdStrike outage, which highlighted vulnerabilities and the importance of strong IT security. As a result, businesses are giving endpoint and cloud security expenditures top priority. According to Shailendra Upadhyay, Senior Principal at Gartner, the outage forced CISOs to reassess security plans, with an emphasis on improving preventive, response, and support protocols.
The managed security services segment of the security services market, which encompasses security consulting, security professionals, and managed security services, is expected to grow at a rate of 34.3%, exceeding the growth rates of security professional services (17.9%) and security consulting services (10.9%). Investments in security software will continue to be driven by the rising cost of public cloud services, which Gartner projects will rise by 34% in India in 2025, as well as the use of AI and GenAI by both suppliers and attackers, according to Upadhyay.
According to the estimate, there will be a major change in the information security landscape in India as businesses realize how important it is to strengthen their defenses against a constantly evolving threat landscape.
