The bot security market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.63 billion in 2023 to $0.75 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.7%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including a rise in bad bot traffic, growing concerns regarding cybersecurity, an increase in incidents of bot-driven cyber-attacks targeting sensitive data and financial assets, a surge in bot attacks, and the emphasis on regulatory compliance within the cybersecurity landscape.

The bot security market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.51 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.0%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the protection of brand reputation, increased awareness among organizations regarding the potential risks associated with bot activities, the continued growth of e-commerce, widespread adoption of machine learning technologies, and the influence of social media. Major trends expected during this period encompass the shift of traffic from web to mobile platforms, ongoing technological advancements, the development of advanced bot detection and mitigation techniques leveraging machine learning and behavioral analysis, as well as the utilization of bot detection techniques and behavioral biometrics to enhance security measures.

The anticipated rise in bad bot traffic is poised to propel the expansion of the bot security market in the coming years. Bad bot traffic, characterized by non-human traffic directed towards malicious or harmful websites, encompasses activities such as carding, account hacking, credential stuffing, and website content theft. The proliferation of bad bot traffic is expected to drive organizations across various sectors to invest in robust bot security solutions to protect their online assets and mitigate the risks associated with malicious activities. As the threat landscape evolves and the frequency and sophistication of bot attacks increase, there will be an escalating demand for advanced bot security measures capable of efficiently detecting, blocking, and neutralizing malicious bot traffic. For instance, as reported by Imperva Inc., a US-based cyber security software and services company, bad bot traffic constituted 25.6% of all website traffic in 2021, marking a 6.2% increase from 2020. Consequently, the surge in bad bot traffic is fueling the growth of the bot security market.

Prominent companies in the bot security market are at the forefront of developing innovative technologies, such as Software as a Service (SaaS)-based security portfolios, to safeguard applications. A SaaS-based security portfolio encompasses cloud investments made by organizations as part of their Software as a Service (SaaS) offerings, with a focus on assessing the security measures implemented by each SaaS vendor, ensuring data privacy, and meeting compliance standards. For example, in December 2022, F5 Inc., a US-based technology company specializing in application and network security, introduced Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP). This solution extends application observability and protection to cloud-native infrastructures through cloud workload protection, leveraging behavioral analysis to identify insider risks, external threats, and data loss risks in modern applications. Additionally, it detects vulnerable components and potentially malicious activity in real-time. Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP) enhances conventional Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) solutions by offering improved security visibility and protection against contemporary threats. It provides comprehensive telemetry and threat detection capabilities, thereby bolstering security posture, detecting vulnerable components, and defending against modern threats.

In January 2023, Forter, a software-as-a-service company headquartered in the United States, specializing in identity protection solutions, successfully acquired Immue for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition is intended to bolster Forter's fraud management capabilities by incorporating Immue's cutting-edge technology into its core platform. Immue, also based in the US, is recognized for its expertise in bot detection and provides a range of solutions including bot mitigation layers, an advanced Captcha system, and mechanisms to regulate bot activity during peak periods such as hype and flash sales.
