Based on vertical, the healthcare segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The healthcare segment is expected to register the highest CAGR in the application security testing market during the forecast period. The rapid digitization of healthcare services, including electronic health records (EHRs), telemedicine applications, remote patient monitoring, and cloud-based patient management systems, has expanded the attack surface and increased the risk of cyber threats. The sensitivity of patient data, combined with strict regulatory requirements such as HIPAA, HITECH, and GDPR, compels healthcare organizations to adopt continuous, automated, and auditable application security testing solutions. Vendors are increasingly offering specialized testing for mobile apps, APIs, and third-party software components to identify and remediate vulnerabilities early in the development lifecycle. The integration of application security testing into secure DevSecOps pipelines further enables faster, compliant, and reliable software delivery, driving strong adoption in the healthcare vertical.

By service, the managed services segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The managed services segment is expected to register the highest CAGR in the application security testing market during the forecast period. Organizations increasingly face challenges in hiring skilled security professionals and maintaining continuous, comprehensive testing across complex application environments. Managed application security testing services offer end-to-end security testing, including SAST, DAST, SCA, SBOM analysis, and penetration testing, delivered by expert teams that ensure consistent coverage and rapid remediation. These services are particularly valuable for enterprises adopting DevSecOps and CI/CD pipelines, as they provide scalable, on-demand testing without disrupting development cycles. Additionally, managed application security testing providers offer advanced reporting, compliance support, and continuous monitoring, reducing operational overhead and enhancing security posture. Growing awareness of cybersecurity risks, coupled with the need for expertise and resource efficiency, is driving strong adoption of managed application security testing services globally.

By region, North America is expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period

North America is expected to hold the largest share of the application security testing market during the forecast period, driven by a mature digital ecosystem and high cybersecurity awareness. Organizations in the region were early adopters of DevSecOps, cloud-native development, and CI/CD pipelines, increasing exposure to software vulnerabilities across code, APIs, and third-party components. According to Veracode, in early 2025, North American enterprises reported widespread application-level vulnerabilities, prompting increased adoption of continuous SAST, DAST, SCA, and SBOM-aware testing. Regulatory requirements across BFSI, healthcare, and government sectors further reinforce the need for structured, auditable, and automated security testing. The region also benefits from a strong presence of leading application security testing vendors, including Synopsys, IBM, Checkmarx, Veracode, and Snyk, which accelerate innovation and adoption. Growing demand for integrated, AI-assisted, and managed application security testing services continues to drive robust market growth across applications, APIs, and mobile platforms in North America.
