Operational Technology (OT) Security Market Industry Drivers: What’s Behind The Revenue Growth?
The expansion of remote work is anticipated to stimulate the growth of the operational technology (OT) security market in the future. Remote work is defined as carrying out job functions away from a conventional office setting. When work is conducted remotely, the management of sensitive operational data requires the deployment of OT security solutions to assure data privacy, maintain regulatory adherence, and protect confidential information from unauthorized entry. As an illustration, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a US-based Department of Labor, reported in September 2023 that the telework rate – the proportion of employees who worked remotely for compensation – varied between 17.9% and 20.0% from October 2022 to August 2023. Consequently, the rise in remote work is propelling the expansion of the operational technology (OT) security market.
