Rapid cloud adoption and digital transformation across Europe are expanding enterprise attack surfaces, driving the need for continuous security testing. Organizations are deploying cloud platforms, APIs, and connected systems that require strong security validation. At the same time, strict regulations such as GDPR and NIS2 mandate regular assessment of security controls. According to ImmuniWeb in 2025, many organizations have exposed external assets, increasing risk. This is further driving the demand for proactive security testing to ensure compliance and protect critical data.

By security testing type, the application security testing segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The application security testing segment is expected to register the highest growth in the Europe security testing market during the forecast period due to the rapid expansion of digital applications and online services. Enterprises are increasingly dependent on web and mobile applications to deliver customer services and manage operations. This increases exposure to vulnerabilities in code, APIs, and third-party components. According to Edgescan in 2025, application layer vulnerabilities account for a large share of critical risks identified during testing. Many of these vulnerabilities originate during development and remain undetected until later stages. This is driving the demand for continuous application security testing across the software lifecycle. Organizations are integrating security testing into development processes to identify issues early and reduce remediation costs. The rise of microservices and API-driven architectures is also driving the need for specialized application testing. Security testing helps validate code quality, secure user interactions, and protect sensitive data. Regulatory requirements such as GDPR are also pushing organizations to ensure secure application development. As digital adoption continues, application security testing is becoming a key priority for enterprises across Europe.

By application security testing tool, the interactive application security testing (IAST) segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The IAST segment is expected to witness strong growth in Europe due to its ability to provide real-time vulnerability detection during application execution. Unlike traditional testing approaches, IAST combines static and dynamic analysis to identify vulnerabilities with higher accuracy. This helps reduce false positives and improves developer productivity. According to ImmuniWeb in 2025, many organizations face challenges in prioritizing vulnerabilities due to high volumes of alerts. IAST addresses this issue by providing context-aware insights and actionable findings. Enterprises are adopting DevSecOps practices to integrate security into development workflows. IAST tools fit well into these environments as they enable continuous testing during runtime. This allows organizations to identify vulnerabilities earlier and reduce remediation efforts. The growing complexity of applications and increased use of open-source components are also driving demand for advanced testing tools. IAST helps improve code security, reduce risk exposure, and support faster release cycles. As organizations focus on secure development practices, adoption of IAST solutions is expected to increase across Europe.

The security testing market in Italy is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period.

The security testing market in Italy is expected to grow significantly due to increasing digital adoption and rising cybersecurity threats across industries. Organizations in sectors such as BFSI, manufacturing, and public services are expanding digital platforms and connected systems. This is increasing exposure to cyber risks and driving the demand for security testing. According to NCC Group in 2025, ransomware and targeted attacks continue to impact European organizations, including those in Southern Europe. Italy is strengthening its cybersecurity framework through initiatives aligned with European regulations such as GDPR and NIS2. This is encouraging organizations to adopt regular security assessments and testing practices. Many enterprises are investing in application, network, and cloud security testing to protect critical assets and ensure compliance. The growth of Industry 4.0 and connected manufacturing is also increasing the need for testing of operational technology environments. Organizations are adopting continuous and automated testing to improve visibility and reduce risk. This supports the expansion of the security testing market in Italy.
