Password-based authentication involves users providing a unique password to verify their identity, where the system checks this password against a stored password hash for access authorization. This method ensures that only users with the correct password can access protected resources.
The primary types of password-based authentication include various biometric methods such as fingerprint recognition, iris recognition, palm print recognition, face recognition, vein recognition, signature recognition, voice recognition, and others. Fingerprint recognition, for instance, uses biometric technology to identify individuals based on unique fingerprint patterns. It is widely utilized for secure access control, smartphone authentication, and forensic investigations. These technologies are available through both hardware and software solutions, offering functionalities such as contact, non-contact, and combined approaches. End-users span across sectors including government, military and defense, healthcare, banking and finance, consumer electronics, travel and immigration, security, automotive, and others.
The password based authentication market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides password based authentication market statistics, including the password based authentication industry's global market size, regional shares, competitors with a password based authentication market share, detailed password based authentication market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the password based authentication industry. This password based 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 password based authentication market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $4.57 billion in 2023 to $5.56 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.8%. The growth during the historical period can be attributed to the rising use of the internet, the expansion of e-commerce, heightened cybersecurity threats, requirements for regulatory compliance, and the increasing use of mobile devices.
The password based authentication market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.30 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is driven by escalating cyberattacks and data breaches, increased adoption of multi-factor authentication, expanding digital transformation initiatives, heightened awareness of cybersecurity issues, and government regulations regarding data protection. Key trends expected in this period include the emergence of AI-driven authentication systems, integration with blockchain technology, development of quantum-resistant algorithms, wider adoption of single-sign-on (SSO) solutions, and a focus on adaptive authentication methods.
The password-based authentication market is expected to experience significant growth due to the increasing volume of online transactions conducted over the internet. These transactions involve various financial activities and rely on password-based authentication to verify users' identities and secure access to their accounts and sensitive information. This approach effectively prevents unauthorized access and fraudulent activities. For instance, according to the Canadian Payment Methods and Trends Report 2023 by Payments Canada, the value of online transactions through electronic payments in 2022 increased by 11%, reaching 1,118 million from 1,007 million in 2021. This trend underscores how the rising frequency and scale of online transactions are contributing to the expansion of the password-based authentication market.
Major players in the password-based authentication market are actively developing advanced solutions such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) to enhance both security and user convenience. MFA systems require users to authenticate their identity using two or more methods. For example, in July 2024, Cybernexa, an India-based cybersecurity firm, launched CyLock SSPR, an advanced portal for managing passwords within active directories. This solution addresses the growing need for robust password management in today's dynamic digital landscape, ensuring compliance with organizational policies on password length, complexity, and history. It also assists users in generating strong passwords capable of withstanding brute force attacks and unauthorized access attempts, while facilitating compliance reporting.
In October 2022, Intercede, a UK-based provider of identity and access management (IAM) solutions, acquired Authlogics, a UK-based company specializing in password management and MFA solutions. This acquisition enables Intercede to expand its product portfolio across various authentication technologies. By integrating Authlogics' offerings into a unified management console, Intercede aims to streamline authentication management for its clients, enhancing operational efficiency and security measures.
