Security Service Edge Market

The global security service edge (SSE) market size is projected to grow from USD 6.08 billion in 2024 to USD 23.01 billion by 2030 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 24.8% during the forecast period. The widespread adoption of remote work and the growing need for compliance with stringent regulations and data protection laws drive the Security Service Edge (SSE) market. As more and more organizations implement remote and hybrid work models, they need secure access solutions to safeguard sensitive applications and data against cyber attacks. SSE enables remote secure connectivity by cloud-delivering security services such as Secure Web Gateways (SWG) and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) to enable access for dispersed workforces to be seamless and secure. In addition to this, companies are also required to adhere to ever-changing regulation demands that call for strong security controls to protect personal and business information. SSE solutions enable organizations to address such compliance requirements through centralized security policy, real-time threat identification, and data loss prevention, prompting its adoption across industries.

What is Security Service Edge (SSE)?

Security service edge (SSE) is a comprehensive cloud-based security solution that converges network and security services to protect access to web, cloud, and private applications, regardless of user location or device. SSE capabilities include access control, threat protection, data security, security monitoring, and acceptable-use control. SSE may also include on-premises or agent-based components.
