Password Management Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Offering (Solution, Service), By Enterprise Size (Small, Medium, Large), By End User (Communication And Technology, Manufacturing, BFSI, Retail, Others), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2024 To 2029

The password management market is expected to grow from US$1.782 billion in 2024 to US$3.123 billion in 2029 at a CAGR of 11.88%.

Password management provides security over a business’s information and protects it from unauthorized access and breach. It is based on a framework that prevents external and internal threats from capturing credentials, master passwords, and access to highly confidential data systems. The model can be deployed on the cloud or the premise, depending upon the enterprise's requirements. Changing working trends in many regions have led to an increase in the number of employees working offsite and accessing enterprise servers over an unprotected and unmonitored public network.

Furthermore, security breaches from within the organization are more difficult to detect than those from outside. To gain access to sensitive data, employees within an organization have to go through fewer layers of security based on algorithms that are hard to crack. An inefficient framework can jeopardize the data’s integrity, thereby making it easy to hack. With the growing prevalence of unauthorized access and data thefts, the demand for password management is expected to show positive growth on a global scale, thereby augmenting the overall market expansion.

Password Management Market Drivers:

• Growing ransomware prevalence has propelled the overall market demand.

Constantly evolving malware poses a constant risk of a data breach, owing to which numerous businesses suffer significant losses. According to Zscaler’s “2023 ThreatLabz Ransomware Report”, the global ransomware attacks witnessed a 40% increase, with the United States accounting for a major portion of the attack prevalence.

Likewise, according to Verizon’s “2024 Data Breach Investigational Report”, which recorded the cyber theft incidents that happened between November 2022 to October 2023 in 94 countries, the number of confirmed data-breach incidents stood at 10,626 and major types were phishing, ransomware, and credentials theft. Hence, with such a high prevalence rate, the demand for optimal solutions safeguarding an enterprise’s data integrity has also increased, which is expected to drive the demand for software that exercises password management.

The password management market growth is propelled by data centers & digital workstations.

In today's modern times, the adoption of technical and digital infrastructure is the way forward to achieve operational efficiency, high security, and scalability. Major economies worldwide are investing in data centers and digital workstation infrastructure, all requiring a highly secured framework to safeguard data storage. For instance, in June 2024, Equinix Inc. announced investments of 50 million Euros to develop its second IBX data center (LS2) in Lisbon, located near the existing LS1. The investment will assist local businesses in Portugal to expand their network.

• Stringent regulations regarding data security have provided new growth prospects.

Witnessing the growing prevalence of data theft, various global economies are implementing strategies and policies regarding personal and commercial enterprise data protection to reduce such cybertheft occurrences and lower the risk.

For instance, as per the draft issued by the Senate Committee on the “American Privacy Rights Act’ on April 2024, the regulations would assist in establishing a consumer privacy framework. Likewise, other major regions are also implementing related laws to safeguard consumer data, such as the “European General Data Protection” law, which aims to exercise data privacy laws across the EU.
