Europe SoC as a Service Market Poised for Strong Growth as AI, IoT and Custom Silicon Demand Accelerate Through the Forecast Period
Dublin, Sept. 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "Europe SoC as a Service Market" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Europe SOC as a Service Market is the second-largest regional contributor to the global SOCaaS industry, supported by stringent cybersecurity regulations, a mature enterprise security culture, and increasing demand for managed security operations. Valued at approximately USD 1.54 billion in 2024, the market is projected to reach USD 3.18 billion by 2031, expanding at a compound annual growth rate of approximately 10.89%.
Market growth is being driven by the General Data Protection Regulation, the NIS2 Directive, increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, and persistent shortages of skilled cybersecurity professionals. Organizations across Europe are adopting scalable, subscription-based security operations to strengthen threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, and cross-border regulatory compliance. Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, the Nordic countries, and the France-Spain-Italy cluster remain central to regional expansion.
