In 2024, the number of data compromises in the United States stood at 3,158 cases. Meanwhile, over 1.35 billion individuals were affected in the same year by data compromises, including data breaches, leakage, and exposure. While these are three different events, they have one thing in common. As a result of all three incidents, the sensitive data is accessed by an unauthorized threat actor. Industries most vulnerable to data breaches Some industry sectors usually see more significant cases of private data violations than others. This is determined by the type and volume of the personal information organizations of these sectors store. In 2024 the financial services, healthcare, and professional services were the three industry sectors that recorded most data breaches. Overall, the number of healthcare data breaches in some industry sectors in the United States has gradually increased within the past few years. However, some sectors saw decrease. Largest data exposures worldwide In 2020, an adult streaming website, CAM4, experienced a leakage of nearly 11 billion records. This, by far, is the most extensive reported data leakage. This case, though, is unique because cyber security researchers found the vulnerability before the cyber criminals. The second-largest data breach is the Yahoo data breach, dating back to 2013. The company first reported about one billion exposed records, then later, in 2017, came up with an updated number of leaked records, which was three billion. In March 2018, the third biggest data breach happened, involving India’s national identification database Aadhaar. As a result of this incident, over 1.1 billion records were exposed.

In the first half of 2024, the share of health-related U.S. data breaches caused by hacking was ** percent, which marked a *** percent increase from 2023, reaching its highest rate since 2014.

In 2021, majority of adult respondents in the Philippines stated that they were not aware if and when their smartphone devices were compromised. Smartphone users are vulnerable to hacking or information misuse as they increase their internet usage, especially if they do not change their passwords regularly.

Version 3 with 517M hashes and counts of password usage ordered by most to least prevalent Pwned Passwords are 517,238,891 real world passwords previously exposed in data breaches. This exposure makes them unsuitable for ongoing use as they re at much greater risk of being used to take over other accounts. They re searchable online below as well as being downloadable for use in other online system. The entire set of passwords is downloadable for free below with each password being represented as a SHA-1 hash to protect the original value (some passwords contain personally identifiable information) followed by a count of how many times that password had been seen in the source data breaches. The list may be integrated into other systems and used to verify whether a password has previously appeared in a data breach after which a system may warn the user or even block the password outright.

The Cloud Security Industry's compound annual growth rate (CAGR) was XX% from 2024 to 2031. • The market for cloud security is growing because of the emergence of DevSecOps and Data breaches. • The adoption of these solutions by businesses, particularly small and medium-sized businesses, has been greatly hampered by their high cost. • The AI and data analytics capabilities of the cloud are being heavily utilized by telcos. Operating in extremely dynamic and complicated IT environments with a multitude of software, networks, and devices is what has contributed to the expansion of the IT & telecom market. • North America is expected to have the largest market share in the cloud security market

Market Dynamics of Cloud Security Market:

Key drivers of Cloud Security Market

Data breaches and cyberattacks are driving the cloud security market's rapid growth.

Due to digitalization and technological advancements, the use of the Internet is increasing in all sectors. As the use of the Internet increases, the chances of cyber-attacks increase. There is a large scale of cyberattacks that is causing the loss of private, business, and governmental data all around the world when individuals utilize the Internet to conduct focused, politically driven attacks against cloud IT infrastructure. A cyberattack that targets off-site service platforms that use their cloud architecture to provide computing, storage, or hosting services might be categorized as a cloud cyberattack. This can involve assaults on service platforms that make use of SaaS(software as a service), IaaS (infrastructure as a service), and PaaS (platform as a service) service delivery paradigms. For Example, In March 2020, a cloud cyber assault targeted the adult live-streaming website CAM4, exposing 10.8 billion confidential entries totaling 7 TB of data. Location information, email addresses, IP addresses, payment logs, usernames, and more were all included in the compromised database. (Source:https://cisomag.com/adult-website-data-leak/) The growing number of organizational data breaches and leaks is driving the cloud security market. Data in the cloud is more vulnerable to hackers than data on corporate computers. For Instance, Microsoft revealed in 2020, that in December 2019 breach in one of their cloud databases exposed 250 million entries, including IP addresses, email addresses, and support case information. The computer giant claims that a poorly designed network server that was storing the important data was the root cause of this data breach. Despite not being the largest, the high-profile target made it one of the most startling clouds cyberattacks. (Source:https://www.forbes.com/sites/daveywinder/2020/01/22/microsoft-security-shocker-as-250-million-customer-records-exposed-online/?sh=693f59f04d1b)Thus, The cloud service model enhances the dangers and security challenges associated with cloud computing systems by exposing information and offering customers a variety of services. Data loss in cloud computing is a basic security issue. Hackers from both inside and external staff may gain unauthorized or purposeful access to the data. Such setups can be targets for external hackers who utilize hacking tactics like eavesdropping and hijacking to get access to databases. Additionally, malicious programs like Trojan horses which are a kind of malicious software that infiltrates a computer under the guise of an authentic application, and viruses are added to cloud services. Therefore, to put in place a system with stronger security features, it is vital to detect potential cloud risks and protect against such breaches with good cloud security.

The market for cloud security is growing because of the emergence of DevSecOps.

As more businesses shift their apps and IT infrastructure to the cloud, cloud security is becoming more and more crucial. DevSecOps which is development, security, and operation automation is becoming popular among many enterprises as a means of guaranteeing the best possible cloud security. DevSecOps automation incorporates security into every phase of the development lifecycle, from code generation to deployment and maintenance. DevSecOps helps many...

Despite being launched relatively recently and not having a significant user base, alternative social media platforms have become targets for hackers. Parler, the platform often associated with conservatives and used as an alternative to Twitter, saw a breach of more than ** terabytes of data in January 2021. Cybersecurity specialists, though, say there was no evidence that the platform was hacked. Instead, the vulnerability was in the platform's architecture, which resulted in the data breach. Another alt-tech platform, Gab, was hacked two months after Parler's incident. Around ** gigabytes of sensitive user data were exposed in this incident. During the Gettr hack in July 2021, third parties got unauthorized access to ** thousand e-mail addresses of users. The BitChute hack that occurred in August 2022 affected nearly three million users.

This data was collected by researchers at the University of Toronto under the Research Ethics Board Protocol 44460.
