DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Cybersecurity in Retail and Apparel – Thematic Research” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Retail is one of the sectors most vulnerable to cybersecurity risks.

Key Highlights

According to publisher forecasts, global security revenues in retail are headed for strong growth in the next few years, growing from $7 billion in 2019 to reach $12 billion by 2025

Scope

Cybersecurity is one of the most important themes for retailers, especially since the rise of ecommerce or hybrid retailer models offering both in store and online services for consumers. Point-of-sale systems are the most vulnerable area to hackers seeking to gain sensitive consumer data, mostly involving finances. As more retailers implement digital platforms and incorporate technologies to offer more convenient shopping experiences they’ll need to think more about their security systems. If not, they could be hit with huge fines for violating international laws, most notably the EU’s GDPR.
