Confidential computing encompasses technologies and practices aimed at safeguarding sensitive data and processes within computing environments, ensuring their confidentiality and security, particularly during processing or analysis by cloud or other computing services.
The primary components of confidential computing include hardware, software, and services. Hardware components constitute physical elements within computer systems designed for specific functions. They encompass various deployments such as on-premises and cloud setups, serving diverse applications such as data security, secure enclaves, and user transparency. These components find applications across various industry verticals including banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), government and defense, healthcare, information technology (IT) and telecommunications, retail, manufacturing, and others.
The confidential computing market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides confidential computing market statistics, including confidential computing industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a confidential computing market share, detailed confidential computing market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the confidential computing industry. This confidential computing market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The confidential computing market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $6.45 billion in 2023 to $8.82 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 36.7%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to data breaches, the need for regulatory compliance, the increasing adoption of cloud technologies, healthcare data sharing initiatives, and growing privacy concerns.
The confidential computing market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $30.89 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 36.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is driven by increasing data privacy regulations, the proliferation of edge computing, a focus on data sovereignty and jurisdictional regulations, and the escalating cybersecurity threats. Major trends expected in this period include the adoption of hybrid and multi-cloud solutions, efforts towards standardization and interoperability, the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML), enhanced data governance and compliance measures, and the adoption of blockchain and distributed ledger technologies.
The escalating prevalence of cyber intrusion activities is poised to propel the growth of the confidential computing market in the foreseeable future. Cyber intrusion activities encompass unauthorized actions or breaches perpetrated by individuals, groups, or entities to gain illicit access to computer systems, networks, or data. With the proliferation of connectivity, increasingly sophisticated attack techniques, and a notable lack of cybersecurity awareness and preparedness, instances of cyber intrusion are on the rise. Confidential computing emerges as a vital strategy in combating cyber intrusion by fortifying cybersecurity measures, safeguarding sensitive data against unauthorized access and tampering, and bolstering the overall security posture of computing environments. For example, according to the Australian Cyber Security Centre report in November 2022, cybercrime reports surged to 76,000, marking a 13% increase from the previous year. Consequently, the mounting incidents of cyber intrusion activities are driving the confidential computing market forward.
Key players in the confidential computing market are prioritizing the development of advanced technological solutions, particularly focusing on data protection to address the growing demand for data privacy and security. A data protection platform serves as a comprehensive solution engineered to secure sensitive data by centralizing policy, audit, logging, and monitoring functionalities. For instance, in December 2022, Opaque Systems, a US-based company specializing in confidential computing, unveiled the first multi-party confidential AI and analytics platform. This groundbreaking platform facilitates secure access, sharing, and analytics on confidential data, empowering organizations to adhere to legal and regulatory mandates effectively. By addressing data privacy, security, and compliance challenges, this advancement in confidential computing technology enables organizations to harness the potential of AI and analytics on encrypted data within trusted execution environments (TEEs), thereby fostering innovation while ensuring robust data protection measures.
In October 2022, Fatbrain LLC, a distinguished US-based enterprise AI software company, successfully acquired the confidential computing and privacy intellectual property (IP) along with software assets of Zero2AI PTE LTD Platform for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition is geared towards safeguarding data privacy, fostering innovation for a multitude of expanding businesses. It enables FatBrain to leverage the specialized expertise of Zero2AI in confidential computing, ultimately empowering small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with robust data privacy guarantees. Zero2AI PTE Ltd., headquartered in Singapore, is recognized for its development of applications that harness open-source AI models.
