VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 20, 2025 /CNW/ -- USA News Group News Commentary – As the prospect of quantum-enabled cyberattacks draws closer, companies of every size are stepping up efforts to secure their digital assets. Analysts at Fortune Business Insights forecast that the global cybersecurity market could balloon to US$562.77 billion by 2032, expanding at a 14.4% compound annual growth rate, driven largely by rising concerns over AI-powered threats and quantum-era vulnerabilities. Separate projections from Research and Markets suggest the post-quantum cryptography space will expand at 41.47% annually, reaching US$17.7 billion by 2030, while Precedence Research places that figure closer to US$30 billion by 2034. Against this backdrop, cybersecurity innovators are racing to build new defenses that can withstand both current and next-generation attacks—including recent activity from Scope Technologies Corp.
