Oil and gas security and services are defined as the strength of encryption and authentication capabilities by providing effective and enhanced network protections to anticipate and eliminate possible cyber-attacks on oil & gas facilities worldwide. In addition, the security of the operational technology (OT) such as supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and distributed control system (DCS) of the infrastructure of the oil & gas industry from cyber-attacks and data theft is known as oil & gas security. In recent years, oil & gas security and services include physical and network defense across both projects, offshore and onshore. The demand for oil and gas security and services is due to the rise in the need for energy supply is creating pressure on governments to draw up regulatory plans for the oil & gas physical protection framework. Furthermore, the increase in cyber-attacks by oil & gas firms on operational technology (OT) raises the need for market protection. Monitoring systems have empowered issues to be identified and have helped to identify solutions in a shorter time cycle. The global oil and gas security and services market is expected to witness a CAGR of around 5% during the forecast period (2021–2027).

However, Covid – 19 has devasted the global economy due to which many sectors experienced a downfall as the demand for oil and gas security and services got reduced within the industries. In addition, the pandemic led organizations to go through economic turmoil and the absence of service engineers has put a lot of pressure on oil companies which are connecting Original Equipment Manufacturer Vendors (OEMs) with Operational Technology (OT) to carry out work. But due to this, their IT and OT systems are no longer segregated and are exposed to threats. Systems with no updated security patches are more prone to cyber-attacks. As the industries are in the process, many productions, supply chain power, and other industries are using security systems as a source of data maintenance within the industry. Furthermore, the concern towards data security regards the use of security and services, by which the growth of the oil and gas security and services market will be seen during the forecasted period.
