By deployment mode, cloud segment to hold a larger market size during the forecast period

Companies have increasingly turned to the cloud for their email solution. This trend has been witnessed by cybercriminals or attackers and are finding ways to access email hosted in the cloud. Businesses are proactively deploying cloud-based BEC solutions for remotely protecting end users from phishing emails. Enterprises are seeking cloud-based BEC solutions to enable cost-effectiveness, rapid deployment, and on-demand access to expertise for mitigating advanced threats on email platforms. Small and medium-sized companies often rely on cloud BEC security from providers. All incoming and outgoing emails pass through the provider's servers. Cloud-based BEC services provide security features, such as advanced phishing protection and MFA, which are either not enabled by default or are only available at additional cost depending upon the vendor.

By vertical, healthcare segment to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The healthcare sector is constantly focusing on enhancing services delivered to patients. While delivering the best services to patients and staff, clinics, and hospitals must assess and control various risks with regards to patient safety, federal regulations, and medical errors. Medical records fetch around USD 429 per record in the black market, making the healthcare vertical a lucrative target for ransomware, APTs, and malware attacks. BEC solutions have emerged as a valid solution to address issues, such as data security, patient safety, and enhanced productivity, to accelerate the overall process. During the COVID-19 pandemic, in phishing emails, fraudsters have been impersonating World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The mails were aimed at disseminating ransomware and other malicious code through attachments purporting to contain important information about the virus. More than 1,200 hospitals in the US have partnered with Zix to maintain HIPAA compliance. According to research by Paubox, 39% of all HIPAA breaches occurred via emails. Government regulations such as HIPAA and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) have resulted in the rapid adoption of BEC solutions in the healthcare vertical.

By region, North America to hold the largest market size during the forecast period

North America is estimated to account for the highest market share in the BEC market. The region has some of the prominent vendors that offer BEC solutions and services; some of them are Proofpoint, Cisco, Broadcom, Zix, Barracuda Networks, among others. The PCI DSS, HIPAA, GLBA, SOX, and other regulatory compliances help organizations in protecting the sensitive data of their customers. These regulations play an important role in promoting the adoption of BEC solutions and services among end users. The adherence to compliance and regulations, increasing BEC frauds, growth in the adoption of mobile and other connected devices, and increasing internet usage are the factors driving the growth of the BEC market in the region. Countries analyzed for the BEC market in this region are the US and Canada.

Unique Features in the Business Email Compromise Market

Complex social engineering approaches are frequently employed in BEC assaults. Attackers pose as reputable company partners or high-ranking executives to trick staff members into sending money or divulging private information. These strategies take use of familiarity and trust, making detection challenging.

BEC attacks mostly take advantage of human psychology, in contrast to other hacks that mostly rely on technical flaws. This lessens their reliance on complex malware or software flaws and allows them to concentrate more on deceiving people.

Organizations with significant financial transactions, such as big businesses, financial institutions, and governmental bodies, are often the targets of BEC assaults. Each successful breach is intended to yield substantial cash rewards for the attackers.

Attackers frequently target particular employees of an organization, such as treasurers, CFOs, or staff members handling accounts payable. These people are highly sought after since they have the power to approve significant financial transactions.

Victim organizations may suffer significant financial losses as a result of BEC assaults. These frauds frequently involve sums of money that are in the millions of dollars. Because of this, BEC is among the cybercrimes that can cause the greatest financial harm.

BEC assaults can result in large indirect costs in addition to direct financial losses, such as legal bills, harm to one's reputation, and expenses for analyzing and containing the attack.

Major Highlights of the Business Email Compromise Market

The Business Email Compromise (BEC) market has seen a significant rise in the number of attacks, making it one of the most prevalent and financially devastating forms of cybercrime. Organizations around the world face substantial financial losses due to BEC scams, with global losses running into billions of dollars annually.

BEC attackers employ advanced social engineering techniques to deceive their targets. They often impersonate high-ranking executives, suppliers, or trusted business partners to gain the confidence of employees and manipulate them into transferring funds or disclosing sensitive information.

Unlike many other cyber threats that rely on complex malware or technical exploits, BEC attacks primarily exploit human vulnerabilities. This low-tech approach makes them less dependent on sophisticated technological tools, instead leveraging psychological manipulation to achieve their goals.

BEC attackers are highly adaptable, continuously evolving their tactics to circumvent security measures. They monitor industry trends and adjust their strategies accordingly, such as using legitimate email services and domains to make their communications appear more credible and avoid detection.

The personalized and legitimate-looking nature of BEC emails makes them difficult to detect with traditional email security measures. These attacks often evade detection due to their sophisticated social engineering tactics..
