Container Security Market to Reach USD 9.42 Billion by 2031 Driven by Multi-Cloud Adoption & Rising Supply Chain Threats

Mordor Intelligence has published a new report on the container security market, offering a comprehensive analysis of trends, growth drivers, and future projections.

Container Security Market Overview

According to Mordor Intelligence, the container security market size reached USD 3.69 billion in 2026 and is forecast to grow to USD 9.42 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 20.66% during the forecast period. This strong expansion reflects how modern enterprises increasingly rely on containerized environments to deploy applications across hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructure. As organizations move toward microservices architectures and DevSecOps workflows, the need for reliable container protection tools becomes a priority for securing software pipelines and runtime environments.

The container security market growth is also influenced by compliance requirements such as PCI-DSS, NIS2, and software bill-of-materials regulations. These standards require organizations to track software components, monitor container execution, and maintain audit visibility across environments. As a result, businesses are embedding security checks directly into development pipelines to ensure container images remain secure from build to deployment.

Container Security Market Trends

Rising Adoption of Multi-Cloud and Hybrid Infrastructure

One of the most important container security market trends is the growing adoption of multi-cloud environments. Organizations deploy workloads across several cloud platforms to improve flexibility and avoid dependency on a single provider. However, this distributed environment increases operational complexity and exposes gaps in visibility and access control.

Increasing Importance of DevSecOps Integration

The shift toward DevSecOps is shaping the container security market share, as organizations integrate security directly into development workflows. Developers now scan container images during code creation, reducing vulnerabilities before deployment. This approach helps organizations identify and fix issues earlier in the software lifecycle.

Growing Compliance Requirements and Regulatory Enforcement

Regulatory mandates are another major factor influencing the container security market growth. Organizations must maintain detailed records of software components and system activity to comply with global cybersecurity standards. These requirements encourage businesses to adopt container security platforms capable of providing monitoring, auditing, and vulnerability management.

Rising Supply Chain Risks and Image Vulnerabilities

Supply chain attacks targeting container images have increased, creating new challenges for organizations. Attackers often introduce malicious code into software dependencies, which can spread across multiple systems. This threat has increased demand for container image scanning and runtime protection solutions.
