根据 Stratistics MRC 的研究，预计到 2025 年，全球巨量资料安全市场规模将达到 399 亿美元，到 2032 年将达到 1,061.5 亿美元，预测期内复合年增长率为 15%。

巨量资料安全是指旨在保护大规模、高速产生的结构化、半结构化和非结构化资料的策略、技术和实践。它专注于保护分散式环境中的数据，例如云端平台、资料湖和Hadoop生态系统。巨量资料安全性包括资料加密、存取控制、身份验证、入侵侦测、资料脱敏和合规性管理。它应对可扩展性、即时处理和复杂资料流等挑战，同时确保资料的机密性、完整性和可用性。有效的巨量资料安全使组织能够在满足监管和隐私要求的同时，安全地分析大规模资料集。

巨量资料遭受的网路攻击日益增多

随着各行业敏感资讯量的不断增长，巨量资料平台已成为安全漏洞的主要目标。即时监控、加密和异常检测对于保护关键资产至关重要。法律规范进一步强化了数据密集型产业采取强有力安全措施的必要性。云端运算的普及和物联网的扩展进一步加剧了安全漏洞，因此需要采取积极主动的防御策略。针对巨量资料的网路攻击日益增多，正在推动市场成长。

网路安全专业人员短缺

网路安全专业人才短缺仍然是巨量资料安全市场面临的主要阻碍因素。企业难以招募和留住能够管理复杂巨量资料环境的人才。这种技能缺口导致企业更加依赖外部顾问，并减缓了内部安全创新。培训和认证项目需要大量投资，从而增加了营运成本。小规模的组织在组建专门的安全团队方面面临更大的挑战。缺乏熟练的专业人才阻碍了先进巨量资料安全解决方案的广泛应用。

新兴经济体需求不断成长

新兴经济体日益增长的需求为巨量资料安全供应商创造了强劲的机会。亚洲、拉丁美洲和非洲各地的政府和企业都在投资建立安全的资料基础设施。电子商务、金融科技和医疗保健产业的扩张进一步提升了对强大安全框架的需求。本地供应商正在提供符合当地需求的、经济高效的解决方案。新兴经济体日益增长的需求正在为市场创造巨大的机会。

不断演变且日益复杂的网路威胁

不断演变且日益复杂的网路威胁使得企业难以仅依赖传统防御机制。进阶持续性威胁 (APT)、勒索软体和人工智慧驱动的攻击正在加剧各行各业的风险。为了领先攻击者，企业必须不断升级系统，这无疑增加了成本。监管合规性也为不断演变的风险管理增添了另一层复杂性。高阶网路威胁正在抑制市场信心，并威胁永续成长。

新冠疫情的感染疾病：

新冠疫情加速了数位化转型，同时也暴露了巨量资料平台的脆弱性。一方面，预算限制导致一些大规模的安全投资被推迟；另一方面，远距办公和线上活动的激增凸显了高阶安全防护的必要性。疫情期间，企业面临日益严重的网路钓鱼、勒索软体和内部威胁。尤其值得一提的是，医疗保健和生命科学产业加大了对巨量资料安全的投入，以保护敏感的病患资料。总而言之，新冠疫情强化了数据驱动型企业建构强大安全框架的重要性。

预计在预测期内，资料加密解决方案细分市场将占据最大的市场份额。

在预测期内，资料加密解决方案预计将占据最大的市场份额，这主要得益于各行业对安全储存和传输敏感资讯的需求。加密技术能够有效防止未授权存取和资料外洩。企业依靠加密技术来遵守法规结构并维护客户信任。随着企业不断扩展云端和物联网的应用，可扩展加密解决方案的需求也不断增长。与高阶分析平台的整合进一步强化了加密技术在巨量资料生态系统中的作用。随着企业将保密性和合规性置于优先地位，资料加密解决方案正在推动市场成长。

预计在预测期内，医疗保健和生命科学领域将实现最高的复合年增长率。

预计在预测期内，医疗保健和生命科学产业将实现最高成长率，这主要得益于对安全管理病患记录和医学研究数据的需求不断增长。医疗机构需要先进的安全框架来遵守诸如 HIPAA 等严格法规。基因组学、远端医疗和临床试验领域的巨量资料平台正在推动加密和监控解决方案的普及。对数位医疗领域不断增长的投资进一步强化了对强大安全性的需求。人工智慧驱动的分析技术在医疗保健领域的应用也进一步推动了对安全基础设施的需求。

占比最大的地区：

由于北美地区拥有先进的IT基础设施、健全的法规结构以及对巨量资料安全解决方案的早期应用，预计该地区将在预测期内占据最大的市场份额。主要技术提供者的存在和成熟的数位生态系统为大规模应用提供了支援。监管机构对合规性和隐私的关注正在推动对强大安全平台的投资。北美企业在其数据驱动型营运中优先考虑韧性和客户信任。对安全云和物联网生态系统的高需求进一步促进了应用。

年复合成长率最高的地区：

预计亚太地区在预测期内将实现最高的复合年增长率，这主要得益于新兴经济体快速的工业化进程、不断扩展的数位生态系统以及政府主导的网路安全措施。中国、印度和东南亚等国家正大力投资建设安全的巨量资料基础设施。电子商务、金融科技和医疗保健创新领域日益增长的需求正在推动先进安全解决方案的普及。当地企业正在采用经济高效的平台来满足其不断增长的数位化需求。不断扩展的数位生态系统正在强化安全在企业现代化过程中的作用。亚太地区的数位扩张和网路安全发展势头正在推动市场成长。
