Managed security services monitor the intrusion detection systems and firewalls, perform security audits, oversee patch management, and respond to network emergencies.
The growing demand for IT management from large as well as small enterprises has led to the growth of the global managed security services market.

Demand for Outsourced Managed Security Services Helping Growth of Service Providers
The positive growth in digital information in the recent years has increased the need for securing the data. Growing incidence of cyber attacks has led various enterprises to safeguard their networks through managed security services. With policies such as BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) adopted by organizations to increase work efficiency, managed security services have gained more relevance. Stringent data protection laws and compliance standards have also boosted the overall managed security services market. Organizations usually outsource the management of security services, as it is a cost-effective approach.
However, enterprises are sometimes reluctant to share confidential information with the third-party vendors who manage their security services. This may hamper the growth of the global managed security services market. In large enterprises, the need for managed security services also varies owing to the presence of multiple customers and business divisions. The overall market has a huge opportunity to grow with the growing preference for managed security service providers (MSSPs) with scalable big data analytics.
