Dublin, Oct. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Maritime Cybersecurity Market Report 2025" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The maritime cybersecurity market is expanding at an impressive rate, projected to grow from $3.68 billion in 2024 to $6.55 billion by 2029. This growth represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.4% in the near term and a slightly adjusted 12.2% over the longer term. Factors fueling this surge include increasing cyber threats targeting navigation and communication systems, expanded digitalization across shipping operations, and enhanced cybersecurity regulations. The proliferation of internet-connected devices on maritime vessels also plays a significant role in market growth.

Going forward, the rise of autonomous shipping technologies, heightened cyber threats to onboard systems, and an emphasis on cloud-based maritime management platforms are expected to drive market dynamics. Key emerging trends include advancements in edge computing for detecting threats, AI-based maritime cybersecurity solutions, and secure ship-to-shore communication technologies.

The development and implementation of 5G networks and IoT security are pivotal for the market's future trajectory. The deployment of high-speed, low-latency communications is vital in ensuring secure data transmission across maritime networks, providing protection for internet-connected systems involved in navigation and cargo management. After all, as of March 2023, the Global Mobile Suppliers Association noted that 5G users had soared to 1.15 billion, nearly a 90% spike from 619 million in 2021.

Leading entities in the market are increasingly focused on zero-trust cybersecurity solutions. Notable movements in the sector include Rakuten Symphony's December 2024 launch of Rakuten Maritime, which delivers comprehensive cybersecurity and digital transformation services tailored for the maritime arena. Furthermore, Marlink SAS 's acquisition of Port-IT B.V. in October 2024 aims to bolster its maritime cybersecurity offering, integrating specialized threat detection and incident response systems.

Major players shaping the landscape include industry giants like Airbus SE, IBM Corp, Northrop Grumman , BAE Systems , Thales Group, along with maritime-focused specialists such as Wartsila Oyj Abp, Otorio Ltd., and Cydome Security Ltd.
