However, use of free, open-source, and pirated email security software and the high cost associated with the deployment of BEC solutions are expected to hinder the market growth.

Services segment to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The services segment includes various services that are required to deploy, execute, and maintain BEC detection solutions in organizations.As the adoption of these solutions increases, the demand for these services is also expected to increase.

Some vendors offer services, which can be implemented quickly without additional infrastructure or IT overhead costs.BEC simulation service mimics actual attack scenarios of different types of BEC attacks, such as fake invoice schemes, CEO spam, account compromise, data theft, attorney impersonation, and tax threats.

Awareness helps employees exercise caution when receiving and sharing information via emails.

SMEs to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
While the threat of cybercrime is continuously rising, the general awareness and resilience amongst SMEs remains low.One of the most common forms of cyberattacks against SMEs are BEC frauds.

These frauds usually occur as a result of a security breach of the business’s computer network (or that of a third party), resulting in phishing attacks or email spoofing through social engineering techniques.SMEs have less budget to spend on security as compared to large organizations.

In the event of a payment redirection fraud, the threat is more immediate.In this, SMEs either suffer a loss of its funds or those of its clients (which will attract potential liabilities).

The COVID-19 pandemic is widely exploited by malicious cyber attackers and APT groups using COVID-19 themes, due to which SMEs are focusing more on the security and adoption of BEC solutions. Even though SMEs have limited budgets, there are various vendors who have curated solutions according to the needs of SMEs. For example, the ZeroFox platform (deployable on cloud) provides advanced, AI-powered protection against phishing and BEC attacks and is the most suited for SMEs.
