Organizations are leveraging IT security services to improve their security postures and prepare for challenges such as ransomware attacks and business disruptions. The COVID-19 pandemic, the shortage of cybersecurity talent, and rising CAPEX and OPEX in maintaining in-house security teams, especially amid the Great Resignation, have further accelerated the adoption of security services. The US federal government has taken a serious stance against cybercriminals and has been proactively making laws on a range of security challenges, such as Operational Technology (OT) security and data privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). These factors have significantly increased IT security services demand across North America.
