Market snapshot

These figures describe Cloud Security (9.1.2), the segment that Cloud Security Posture Management sits within. They are not figures for Cloud Security Posture Management on its own.

FragmentationConsolidatingEstimate

Not separately classified. The fastest-moving category, and the one most exposed to being absorbed: the hyperscalers ship native security with the infrastructure, so independent vendors must be materially better at multi-cloud than a customer's primary provider is at its own. That is a defensible position for a few and an existential one for the rest.
