Within the broader USD 580 billion enterprise IT services market in United States, identity and security consulting is one of the more active disciplines, growing roughly in line with the 5.6% headline expansion of the wider services market. Demand is concentrated in New York and San Francisco, where the largest financial services and healthcare buyers maintain dedicated programme teams.
