Behavior Analytics Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Deployment (Cloud and On-premises), By Application (Advertising Campaign, Digital Marketing, Content Delivery, Brand Promotion, Threat Detection, and Others), By Industry (Retail, BFSI, Healthcare, Government, Media & Entertainment, Education, Food & Beverages, and Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

The global behavior analytics market size was valued at USD 801.8 million in 2023 and is projected to grow from USD 1,096.5 million in 2024 to USD 11,468.3 million by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 34.1% during the forecast period (2024-2032). Increasing incidence of cybersecurity threats and frauds due to rapid digitization will boost the adoption of behavior analytics among organizations.

Behavior analytics captures customers’ actions that helps enterprises understand the market trends, provide recommendations as per preferences, and lower security threats by tracking unusual patterns. The rapid digital transformation across industries is likely to surge the demand for analytical tools. Companies are keen to understand customer preferences in advance to offer products per user’s choice. The tools support achieving maximum customer satisfaction, thus fueling sales revenue. Many organizations are collaborating and investing in security solutions that can help drive businesses. For instance,

• In July 2023, Silicom Ltd. announced a collaboration with AI chipmaker, Hailo, to integrate a product portfolio for various use cases. The companies are focusing on offering cost-effective solutions such as facial recognition, behavior analytics, human intrusion detection, and more to enhance decision making.

The COVID-19 pandemic surged the demand for behavior analytics exponentially to understand the changing trends and analyze future demand. The pandemic severely impacted customers' buying behavior for all products across industries. The enterprises invested in analytical tools to make future decisions and strategize product launches. As per the McKinsey and Oxford Economics report on Scenario A1, the U.S. customers’ disposable income is not expected to recover till the second quarter of 2024, thus likely impacting shopping and consumption trends.

Furthermore, the adoption of digital platforms and channels is increasing post-pandemic. Enterprises can draw vast information using tools to offer as per consumer requirements. The rising threats alert companies to constantly map user behavior to reduce fraud risk. Thus, rapidly changing preferences and growing threats are likely to boost the behavior analytics market growth.

Behavior Analytics Market Trends

Cybersecurity and Automation Capabilities of Generative AI to Boost Market Growth

Generative AI has significantly impacted behavior analytics, particularly in cybersecurity. AI has become a necessity in combating cyber threats by analyzing vast amounts of data, identifying patterns, and making real-time decisions. It enhances anomaly detection, improves predictive analysis, and enables proactive defense measures against evolving threats.

Generative AI, in particular, has the potential to transform cybersecurity by analyzing risk data to speed response times and augment security operations. It can create predictive models, generate simulated environments, and analyze large volumes of data to identify and respond to threats before they cause damage. The integration of AI into cyber security practices raised important considerations regarding ethics, privacy, and potential adversarial exploitation. Leveraging AI’s potential with responsible implementation to protect privacy and maintain ethical boundaries becomes crucial.

In July 2023, Swiggy, a food delivery platform, leveraged generative AI to personalize food images and descriptions based on user behavior, enhancing customer experiences. This initiative mirrored Zomato’s efforts in AI integration to improve customer-facing features.

Behavior Analytics Market Growth Factors

Increasing Inside Frauds and Threats to Drive Market Growth

Cybersecurity threats and frauds have increased over the years with the rise in adoption of digitalization. As per the Federal Trade Commission, the online shopping category registered the second-highest fraud of 2.1 million reports in 2020. This factor is expected to surge the demand for behavior analytics.

Enterprises are significantly investing in tools to understand the pattern that can track miscellaneous activities. Behavioral analytics software monitors activities such as the speed of information entered, information of multiple taps, number of password re-entries, and more. According to security analytics, a change in behavior patterns is the early sign of brewing fraud activity and is also an early step to lower risk. Thus, along with cybersecurity protection on all channels, companies monitor employees and customers from the inside to reduce fraud risk. The software helps in separating fraudsters from genuine customers and employees. The aforementioned factors are anticipated to drive the market growth.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Stringent Data Protection Laws to Hamper Market Growth

The rules for protecting customers’ personal and sensitive data are growing stringently across the globe. The companies need to use these customer data with higher precaution and only after taking the customer's permission. However, several companies violate the protection rules to establish their hold on the market. Thus, in many countries, governments have taken strong actions against such companies to reduce data misuse. For instance, in September 2022, the government of South Korea imposed Personal Information Protection Commission (PIPC) regulation on Meta LLC and Google LLC for collecting customer data without their consent. Thus, such a rise in rules against the collection and usage of data is likely to hinder the behavior analytics market share expansion.
