Methodology and sourcing behind the figures and links shown above.

Agentic supply chain security

Search results show broad agentic AI market projections: MarketsandMarkets estimates global agentic AI growing from ~$7.05B (2025) to ~$44.57B (2030) at a 44.6% CAGR, and Gartner (reported on LinkedIn) projects agentic supply-chain AI ~ $53B by 2030. "Agentic supply chain security" is a narrow subset (governance, artifact scanning, verdicting, integrations) of the supply-chain agentic AI market; I conservatively estimate the niche at roughly half a billion USD today (~$0.6B) based on it representing a small percentage of the broader supply-chain agentic AI spend, and assume strong demand for security yields a high CAGR (~40%), in line with large agentic AI growth rates cited.

Runtime AI protection

Estimate based on recent market reports for runtime application self-protection (RASP) and AI TRiSM/runtime protection. ResearchNester and MarketsandMarkets place the RASP/AI TRiSM market around $3.1–3.5B in 2026; MarketsandMarkets calls out ~30%+ CAGR for AI TRiSM and 33.1% for AI security & runtime protection. A midpoint current-size (~$3.3B) and a high-growth CAGR (~30%) reflect the segment’s alignment with rapid AI/agent adoption and cited subsegment growth rates, while acknowledging lower RASP estimates (≈18.9% CAGR) in some reports.

Static Application Security Testing (SAST)

Used the static-analysis/SAST-focused market estimate from Verified Market Reports (USD 5.2B in 2025) as the primary proxy for the SAST segment. Triangulated with AST-platform and broader application-security market figures (USD 6.3B AST platforms, USD 11.9B application security) to confirm scale and growth context. Adopted the 10.2% CAGR reported for the static analysis tools market as the growth potential for SAST, consistent with adjacent AST and application-security CAGR ranges in the results.

AI governance

Primary estimate uses Future Market Insights’ enterprise-focused figure (USD 2.20B in 2025) and its 15.8% CAGR (2026–2036). Other sources show a wide range (Gartner: >$1B by 2030; Precedence/Polaris report faster expansion with higher CAGRs), reflecting differing scopes and definitions of “AI governance.” The FMI enterprise definition aligns closest with the requested segment (policy enforcement, access controls, logging for enterprise AI).
