The Business Research Company’s report on the Disk Encryption Market provides insights into the global market size, growth rate, regional distribution, competitive landscape, key segments, emerging trends, and strategic opportunities.
Which emerging drivers are set to accelerate the growth of the disk encryption market further?
The rising number of data breaches is expected to propel the growth of the disk encryption market going forward. Data breaches are security incidents where unauthorized individuals gain access to sensitive, confidential, or protected data. The growing number of data breaches is mainly due to cybercriminals using more advanced hacking techniques to exploit security weaknesses in companies’ systems often leveraging tactics such as phishing, ransomware, and AI-driven attacks to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data. Disk encryption helps protect data from being accessed by unauthorized people in case of a data breach by converting sensitive information into unreadable code, ensuring security. For instance, in February 2025, according to Surfshark, a Lithuania-based cybersecurity company, in 2024, the total number of global data breaches surged to over 5.5 billion, marking a significant rise from 730 million in 2023. Therefore, the rising number of data breaches is driving the growth of the disk encryption market.
