Multi-factor authentication (MFA) signifies an authentication approach designed to create layered security, bolstering protection against unauthorized access to user information. This strategy enhances organizational security by necessitating users to validate their identity using more than just a username and password, creating a robust authentication process.
The primary models of multi-factor authentication encompass two factors, three factors, four factors, and five factors. Two-factor authentication, a subset of MFA, requires users to employ two distinct authentication factors as part of the security procedure. These factors could include password and password-less authentication. Components integral to multi-factor authentication include hardware, software, and associated services. This authentication method finds application across various sectors, catering to both large enterprises and small to medium-sized businesses. Its implementation spans industries such as BFSI, government, travel and immigration, military and defense, commercial security, healthcare, IT, telecommunication, media and entertainment, and other verticals.

This multi-factor authentication market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The multi-factor authentication market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $15.25 billion in 2023 to $17.78 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.6%. During the historical period, growth can be attributed to several factors such as a rise in cyberattacks, innovations from vendors, integration of multi-factor authentication (MFA), industry-specific applications, and the need to address legacy security vulnerabilities.
The multi-factor authentication market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $34.29 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.9%. In the upcoming forecast period, growth is expected due to several factors such as integration with Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions, industry-specific applications, the increasing adoption of biometrics, growing demand for continuous authentication, and the focus on improving user experience. Anticipated trends in this period encompass rising cyber threats, the expansion of remote workforces, the adoption of zero trust security models, advancements in authentication technologies, and concerns surrounding data privacy.
The anticipated surge in data breaches and cyber-attacks is poised to drive growth in the multi-factor authentication market. Cyber data breaches involve unauthorized access to computer systems or networks to obtain private, sensitive, or confidential information. To counter these breaches, the implementation of multi-factor authentication is crucial, incorporating endpoint detection and response (EDR), biometric technology, cloud security, code audits, and embedded system security assessments. Reports from July 2021 by IBM highlighted a significant increase in data breach costs, rising from $3.86 million in 2020 to $4.24 million in 2021. Additionally, according to the Identity Theft Resource Center (ITRC), U.S. data breaches surged by 38% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter. Consequently, the rise in cyber threats propels the growth of multi-factor authentication.
The burgeoning telecommunications industry is expected to drive the expansion of the multi-factor authentication solutions market. This sector encompasses technology, services, and infrastructure for long-distance information transmission. Within the MFA ecosystem, telecommunications plays a pivotal role, offering the necessary infrastructure and services to support various authentication methods and bolster overall digital transaction security and access control. Projections from October 2023 anticipate global revenue for telecom services to reach £1.13 billion ($1.38 billion) in 2023, surging to an estimated $1.58 trillion by 2028. Moreover, global Information Technology (IT) spending specifically on telecommunications services is projected to grow by 2.8% from $1.42 trillion in 2022 to $1.5 trillion in 2023. Therefore, the expanding telecommunications industry will fuel the growth of the multi-factor authentication solutions market.
Technological advancement emerges as a prominent trend in the multi-factor authentication market. Leading companies in this domain are focused on developing sophisticated security services and solutions, such as smart cards and password-less authentication systems, to fortify their market positions. For instance, in June 2022, Xage Security launched a multi-layer, multi-factor authentication protection tailored for critical infrastructure. This solution combines zero-trust access control with a defense-in-depth authentication approach, requiring users to verify their identity at each access privilege layer.
In the realm of zero trust security, major companies are emphasizing the adoption of educational-focused multi-factor authentication solutions to strengthen their market presence. These solutions cater to the specific security needs of educational institutions, safeguarding sensitive academic data and ensuring compliance with regulations. They play a pivotal role in advancing MFA adoption across diverse sectors, offering tailored and user-friendly security measures. For instance, Clever launched multi-factor authentication solutions in April 2023, aiming to enhance cybersecurity in K-12 schools. Clever MFA+ provides a dual-layer authentication system, addressing cybersecurity threats and ensuring a secure learning environment.
In November 2021, SecureAuth Corporation acquired Acceptto for an undisclosed amount. This strategic move aims to capitalize on the increasing need for enterprises to enhance identity security, support hybrid workforces, boost digital engagement, and transition to cloud and zero-trust networks. Acceptto Corporation specializes in multi-factor authentication, identity management, and access management within the cybersecurity domain.
