For example, the security category displayed a median growth of 187%, total revenues of $10.3 billion, and contributions of over 86,991 jobs, according to Inc.
These security providers are in markets of either physical or cloud-based services and products. Major offerings were in cloud video surveillance and video, network and information protection, security awareness training and simulated phishing, identifying security violations and threats, and the like.
