Passwordless Authentication Market by Type (Fingerprint Recognition, Palm Print Recognition, Iris Recognition, Face Recognition, Voice Analysis, Smart Card, Others), by Component (Hardware, Software), by Authentication Type (Single-factor Authentication, Multi-factor Authetication), by Motility (Fixed, Mobile), by End-use Industry (BFSI, Consumer Electronics, Logistics, Public Sector, Aerospace & Defense, Healthcare, Retail, Others)- Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2022 – 2030

Market Definition:

The Global Passwordless Authentication Market size is estimated to be USD 35.48 billion in 2019 and is predicted to reach USD 456.79 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 29.1% from 2020-2030. Passwordless authentication is a security process that relies on a few unique biological characteristics of an individual in order to verify his/her authenticity. It is a method of authenticating a user’s identity without the use of passwords. Passwordless authentication comes with several benefits such as improved user experience, better security, and a reduction in the total cost of ownership. In order to get confirmation, both samples (human and machine) of the biometric data should match.

Market Dynamics and Trends

The growing penetration of smartphones and other consumer electronic devices is a major factor contributing to the growth of the biometric authentication market. In addition, the growing need for an additional layer of security beyond passwords is another factor augmenting the growth of the biometric authentication market. Moreover, the rapid adoption of technologies such as artificial intelligence and internet of things (IoT) in devices such as smartphones and tablets among others is another key factor responsible for the growth of the passwordless authentication industry. Fingerprint sensors and smartcards are used to verify identities, and these security points allow for a seamless experience and make way for a smooth flow of data between points.

Most organizations have adopted the use of fingerprint authentication and smartcards in their offices, for their employees. Employees make use of either smart cards or biometric authentication to enter/exit the office premises. Few organizations make use of facial recognition, iris recognition, and voice analysis to authenticate their employees. In addition to this, passwordless authentication has gained prominence due to the rising cases of data theft issues across the globe.

The need for security, beyond passwords has increased due to data theft issues in devices such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets among others. Fingerprint sensors and facial recognition are some of the ways modern devices can be secured in order to mitigate data theft issues. Fingerprint recognition and facial recognition are widely implemented in consumer electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets. Fingerprint and facial recognition offer several benefits such as heightened security, accountability, ease of use, and its non-transferable nature.
