Canada Cyber Security Market Size and Share Outlook - Forecast Trends and Growth Analysis Report (2026-2035)

Canada Cyber Security Market Growth

Despite being ranked 13th in terms of cybersecurity strategy efficiency, Canada continues to experience a rise in security breaches each year. The personal information of approximately 2.5 million Canadian clients of the beauty company Yves Rocher was inadvertently made accessible on an unsecured database in September 2019. Additionally, in April 2022, Panasonic, the Japanese technology company, formally announced that its Canadian operations had been targeted by a cyberattack in February, impacting various internal systems, processes, and networks. In May 2022, IKEA acknowledged an internal security breach where customers' personal information was found in a generic search conducted by an employee.

The Canadian government is taking steps to address these issues by introducing new legislation like PIPEDA (Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act) and making amendments to existing regulations to govern the handling of customer and business data by companies.

Canadian financial institutions oversee approximately $4.6 trillion in assets, with banks controlling 70% of this total. The top six banks alone account for 90% of all banking assets, making the sector highly susceptible to cyber threats and data breaches. The widespread use of digital banking, mobile apps, and online transactions has widened the scope for potential cyberattacks, as more customers engage with these digital platforms, creating numerous vulnerabilities for malicious actors to exploit.
