Cybersecurity in Consumer Goods – Thematic Research
Powered by 
All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
The global cybersecurity revenue in consumer goods was $116.6 billion in 2020. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 9% during the forecast period. Cybersecurity is the body of technologies, processes, and practices designed to protect networks, computers, programs, and electronic data from attack, damage, or unauthorized access.
Cybersecurity is more important than ever for consumer goods companies. The pandemic has accelerated the digitalization of business operations and has normalized remote working and eCommerce. This means consumer goods companies have become more reliant on information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) systems that are connected to both the internet and the corporate network, increasing the attack surface available to threat actors.

What is the impact of cybersecurity on the consumer goods market?
The pandemic contributed to (or outright set in motion) changes to the consumer goods sector, resulting in companies relying on more internet and network-connected devices and collecting and storing greater volumes of consumer and operations-related data.
As consumer goods companies have digitalized their operations, more data is collected and transmitted between more internet and network-connected devices before being stored in company databases. This has increased the attack surface hackers are presented with, the ease of navigating networks of connected devices, and the amount of data up for grabs.
Cybersecurity breaches threaten profitability because they can cause lasting damage to digital and physical infrastructures and can badly tarnish a company’s reputation. Cybersecurity breaches also threaten employee and customer privacy. As such, a company without robust cybersecurity protocols cannot be considered a strong ESG performer and is therefore not safe from scrutiny and consumer backlash.
Cybersecurity addresses the security challenges posed by remote working. The corporate network houses most, if not all, of a company’s data and comprises all the applications employees need to do their jobs. Before remote working, corporate networks were typically protected by a firewall and other security apparatus to keep unauthorized individuals outside the network. However, additional cybersecurity measures have become necessary as companies have increasingly adopted virtual private networks (VPNs) to provide employees with remote access to the entire corporate network.
What are the key cybersecurity value chains?
The key cybersecurity value chains can be divided into three segments: hardware, software, and services.
Hardware
With chips now being used in mission-critical servers and safety-critical applications, protecting chips from cyberattacks is becoming more critical and more expensive. Systems vendors such as Apple and Amazon are increasingly designing their chips rather than buying commercially developed devices and intellectual property (IP) created by third-party developers.
Software
The software element of the cybersecurity value chain comprises the following areas: identity management, network security, endpoint security, threat detection & response, cloud security, data security, email security, application security, unified threat management, and vulnerability management.
Services
The services element of the cybersecurity value chain comprises the following areas: managed security services, post-breach response services, and risk & compliance services. Services are typically outsourced because of the complexity of addressing cybersecurity-related issues, such as staying on top of vulnerabilities, identifying & responding to threats, and meeting compliance requirements.
Which are the leading consumer goods companies deploying cybersecurity?
The leading consumer goods companies deploying cybersecurity are Coca-Cola, Johnson & Johnson, Mondelēz, Nestlé, P&G, and Unilever.
Which are the specialist cybersecurity vendors in the consumer goods market?
The specialist cybersecurity vendors in the consumer goods market are Armis Security, Auvesy-MDT, Claroty, Dragos, Nozomi Networks, and Sangfor Technologies.
Market report scope
| Market size (Year – 2020) | $116.6 billion |
| CAGR | >9% |
| Forecast period | 2020 to 2025 |
