"Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) application to grow at high CAGR for the hardware security modules market during the forecast period."
The hardware security module market for SSL and TLS applications is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period till 2030. The growth is driven by the rising demand for secure data transmission, encrypted web communications, and authentication in an growing digital landscape. Companies are prioritizing remote access, and web-based applications, protection of SSL/TLS certificates, private keys, and cryptographic processes as they move to cloud computing. The proliferation of encrypted communication channels has highlighted the importance of hardware-based security solutions such as HSMs. HSMs provide tamper-proof storage and management of cryptographic keys, which protects against cyber attacks like man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, phishing, and SSL/TLS certificate compromise. Further, the increasing adoption of IoT, 5G, and edge computing, in which encrypted communication is essential to protect data exchanges between connected things, networks, and applications, drives the market growth.
"General-purpose Cryptography to account the largest market share in the market during the forecast period."
The market for general-purpose cryptography is anticipated to have the highest market share as the demand for secure data protection is on the rise across various industries and strong key management solutions are required. With digital transformation speeding up and companies moving more operations to the cloud, there is an increased dependence on encryption to protect sensitive data. General-purpose cryptography covering encryption, decryption, key handling, and the creation of digital signatures is central to protecting exchanges of data in financial institutions, healthcare organizations, government departments, and businesses. Growing adoption of general-purpose cryptography in conjunction with next-generation technologies like blockchain, loT, and secure payments also drives growth in the segment. Since businesses such as finance and telecommunication are based on secure communication channels and payment transactions, general-purpose cryptographic HSMs are needed to facilitate smooth and secure operations.
"India to witness significant growth in the hardware security modules market during the forecast period."
Hardware security modules market in India is anticipated to register high CAGR, on account of strong digitalization, growing fintech industry, and rising use of cybersecurity solutions across sectors. India is among the world's fastest-growing economies, and has experienced a boom in online transactions, e-commerce, and cloud computing usage. This has led to a demand for strong encryption solutions such as HSMs to protect sensitive information. The programs of Indian governments, like "Digital India" and "Make in India," are promoting technology uptake in critical industries, including BFSI, healthcare, IT, and manufacturing, further stimulating demand for HSMs. These advancements are enhancing the demand for HSMs. Data protection laws in India are also helping the market grow. India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP), 2023, is stressing the necessity of encryption and security measures to protect personal and financial information. Reserve Bank of India requires stringent cyber security compliance of banks and payments service providers with an incentive of deploying HSMs for authentic key management as well as the encryption of sensitive data. Secondly, the surge in blockchain-driven applications across areas such as logistics, agriculture, and finance also spurred the increase in HSM deployment for authenticating digital signatures and cryptographic securities.
