According to market research, the penetration testing market size was valued at approximately USD 1.8 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 4.5 billion by 2028, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.2%. This growth is fueled by the escalating need for robust security solutions to safeguard sensitive data and ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
