The global Human Risk Management (HRM) industry is positioned as a pivotal force in modern cybersecurity, with regions like EMEA and APAC forecasted to grow at compound annual rates of 19.4% and 20.3%, respectively, between 2024 and 2028. This surge highlights HRM's crucial role in addressing human-centered vulnerabilities through solutions such as security training, behavior analytics, and proactive risk assessment.
HRM solutions have gained prominence amid the increasing frequency of state-sponsored cyberattacks, underscoring the need for continuous education and behavior monitoring across all organizational sizes. Integrating AI and machine learning (ML) in HRM solutions has enabled them to provide predictive risk management and adaptive responses. These capabilities make these solutions essential for enhancing organizational resilience against evolving cyber threats. As a result, HRM is transforming into a vital enabler of sustained cybersecurity growth and adaptability.
