Northbrook, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/20/2018 -- The threat intelligence segment is expected to play a key role in the social media security market.

The threat intelligence segment is expected to play a key role in the social media security market and projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. With the rising penetration of social media across organizations, the imminent need to protect the social media platforms and networks against the malicious attacks has increased. It also helps organizations meet the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act (GLBA), and other regulatory compliances.

The SMEs segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period.

In the social media security market, the SMEs segment is expected to show a higher growth rate, as SMEs are more vulnerable to internal and external data breaches, and the impact of the breach through social media, such as the compromisation of the critical information, which would lead to defamation of organizations resulting in huge losses for organizations. With the adoption of social media security solutions, organizations not only can effectively maintain and secure the critical information from data breaches, but also can monitor their employee's social media activity about their organizations.
