These headlines kept newsrooms abuzz during the holiday season. Evidently, cybercrimes are here to stay and getting increasingly sophisticated to boot, thus necessitating larger investments in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cybersecurity">cybersecurity</a> measures.
Here are three ETFs with exposure to cybersecurity companies for&nbsp;investors&nbsp;who don&#8217;t want to choose specific stocks, but want to reap the benefits of a hot market:
Global X Cybersecurity ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BUG#NASDAQ">BUG</a>) boasts assets of $806.52 million under management and an expense ratio of 0.50%. Its impressive portfolio of stocks includes the biggest names in the cybersecurity sector across the U.S., Israel, Japan and South Korea. 
Fortinet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FTNT#NASDAQ">FTNT</a>), CrowdStrike Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>), Check Point Software (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHKP#NASDAQ">CHKP</a>),  Zscalar (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZS#NASDAQ">ZS</a>), Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PANW#NASDAQ">PANW</a>), and CyberArk Software (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CYBR#NASDAQ">CYBR</a>) are among the top 10 holdings, with 6.92%, 6.76%, 5.85%, 5.75%, 5.68%, and 5.14% allocations, respectively. Coming to some numbers, a Return on Equity of 17.80% and a drop in the P/E ratio from 48.06 in 2023 to 33.93 in 2024 might interest investors looking to cash in on the rising trend in cybersecurity.
The "O.G." cybersecurity-focused fund, the Amplify Cybersecurity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HACK#NYSE">HACK</a>) was the first ETF to hop on the cybersecurity niche bandwagon. It derives its investment strategies from the Nasdaq ISE Cyber Security Select Index, and has $1.93 billion assets under management. 81.5% of the fund is dedicated to large-cap ($10 billion and more) stocks. 
Broadcom (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), with its plethora of cybersecurity products, currently holds the biggest piece of the pie at almost 14%. Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>), Palo Alto, CrowdStrike, and Fortinet also hold significant portions of the fund. The ETF's expense ratio is 0.60%.
iShares Cybersecurity and Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IHAK#NYSE">IHAK</a>) is owned by one of the largest financial institutions in the world, BlackRock (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NYSE">BLK</a>). With an expense ratio of 0.47%, it is relatively cheaper than its peers. Though not entirely cybersecurity-focused, the fund with an AUM of $930 million, includes significant investments in security plays like CyberArk, Fortinet, CrowdStrike, Check Point and Palo Alto. The fund mirrors the NYSE FactSet Global Cyber Security Index, which is composed of cybersecurity companies. 
Why Investing in Cybersecurity is Important
The growth in the number of generative A.I. tools and platforms is opening doors for information technology reinvention. Simultaneously, cybercriminals have been adopting the same upgraded technology to up their games. 
In May, the FBI warned that attackers are now using A.I. tools to upgrade phishing methods. "As technology continues to evolve, so do cybercriminals&#8217; tactics. Attackers are leveraging AI to craft highly convincing voice or video messages and emails to enable fraud schemes against individuals and businesses alike," said FBI Special Agent in Charge Robert Tripp.
&#8220;These sophisticated tactics can result in devastating financial losses, reputational damage, and compromise of sensitive data," read an <a href="https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/sanfrancisco/news/fbi-warns-of-increasing-threat-of-cyber-criminals-utilizing-artificial-intelligence">excerpt</a> from its note to media last May.
Moreover, Statista <a href="https://www.statista.com/forecasts/1280009/cost-cybercrime-worldwide">projects </a>that the global &#8220;Estimated Cost of Cybercrime&#8221; will rise consistently between 2024 and 2029, increasing by $6.4 trillion (69.41%) to reach a peak of $15.63 trillion by 2029.
With critical infrastructure, government data, education, and personal data caught in the crosshairs, investments in cybersecurity have become the need of the hour, bringing exponential growth potential to this market.

With cyber threats on the rise, the cloud security market is growing rapidly. Investors looking to capitalize on this trend may find robust opportunities in Okta (OKTA), CyberArk (CYBR), and Check Point Software (CHKP). These companies are well-equipped to meet increasing demand in the cybersecurity sector. Read more…. With the mass migration of organizations from traditional physical storage to large-scale data centers, cloud solutions, and emerging technologies, cybercriminals are seizing new opportunities. However, the cybersecurity industry remains steadfast in its mission to stay ahead of evolving threats, continuously adapting to counter new risks.
Amid this environment, investors could scoop up shares of fundamentally stable cloud security stocks, Okta, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/OKTA/">OKTA</a>), CyberArk Software Ltd. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CYBR/">CYBR</a>), and Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CHKP/">CHKP</a>).
As the world becomes increasingly digital, traditional security measures must seamlessly transition into the digital space. With most businesses moving to cloud storage and other online services, cyber threats have surged, with <a href="https://www.techtarget.com/whatis/34-Cybersecurity-Statistics-to-Lose-Sleep-Over-in-2020">over 30,000 new vulnerabilities</a> disclosed in the past year, a 17% year-over-year increase.
However, cybersecurity companies are rapidly adapting. <a href="https://www.sophos.com/en-us/cybersecurity-explained/ai-in-cybersecurity">AI-powered cybersecurity solutions</a> now monitor, analyze, detect, and respond to threats in real-time. By recognizing behavior patterns, automating security processes, and identifying anomalies, these technologies are enhancing data protection.
According to a report by Grand View Research, the global cloud security market is forecasted to reach $75.26 billion by 2030, growing at a <a href="https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/cloud-security-market">CAGR of 13.1%</a>. The figures showcase robust investment opportunities present in the industry.
So, let us dive deep into the fundamentals of three <a href="https://stocknews.com/category/software-security/">Software – Security</a> stocks, starting with #3.
Stock #3: Okta, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/OKTA/">OKTA</a>)
OKTA is an identity partner that offers products and services used to manage and secure identities, including Single Sign-On, Adaptive Multi-Factor Authentication, API Access Management, Access Gateway, and Okta Device Access.
On January 28, 2025, OKTA <a href="https://www.okta.com/press-room/press-releases/okta-announces-multi-year-partnership-with-the-mclaren-racing-formula-1-team/">announced a multi-year partnership</a> with the McLaren Formula 1 Team, strengthening its position as a leader in digital identity and security. This collaboration allows OKTA to showcase its technology on a global stage by securing and enhancing access to McLaren's apps and platforms for fans, partners, and employees.
Following the initial deployment, OKTA will further support McLaren Racing by streamlining its digital infrastructure, enhancing security capabilities, driving operational efficiency, and reinforcing OKTA's expertise in protecting high-performance organizations.
On November 26, 2024, OKTA <a href="https://analyticsindiamag.com/ai-features/oktas-quiet-move-into-bringing-identity-to-ai-agents/">launched its Customer Identity Cloud</a>, enabling developers and organizations to secure identities in GenAI applications more effectively. By simplifying the adoption of secure identity standards for common GenAI use cases, the solution enhances data protection and compliance.
This expansion strengthens OKTA's position as a leader in digital identity, broadening its reach in the rapidly growing AI-driven technology space.
For the fiscal 2025 third quarter that ended October 31, 2024, OKTA's total increased 13.9% year-over-year to $665 million. Its non-GAAP gross profit rose 14.4% from the year-ago value to $541 million.
Additionally, the company's non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share increased 53.2% and 52.3% year-over-year to $121 million and $0.67, respectively.
Analysts expect OKTA's revenue and EPS for the fiscal 2025 fourth quarter that ended in January 2025 to increase 10.6% and 16.9% year-over-year to $669.10 million and $0.74, respectively.
