Consumer Identity & Access Management Market Analysis

The global consumer identity and access management market is expected to register a CAGR of 18.2% during the forecast period 2022 to 2027. The factors propelling the market growth are the growing awareness of an organization's security, privacy, and compliance posture, increasing compliance mandates and regulations, and growing demand from vertical markets, among others.

• The demand for consumer identity and access management is rapidly increasing due to compliance mandates, a growing desire to manage alternative user populations, like on-premises visitors, and an emphasis on timely and secure access. It also allows organizations to manage the lifecycle of identities, such as employees, contractors, and vendors.
• Nowadays, with growing digitization across the world, nearly every business transaction is now processed digitally. This is a big attraction for hackers. Moreover, data breaches are not only committed by hackers, but individuals also commit many within an organization who have access to sensitive parts of networks or facilities. Many companies are planning to increase their data security budget, which will drive the need for consumer identity and access management across various end-user segments.
• Moreover, consumer identity and access management deployments are needed to safeguard the system from outside threats, such as unauthorized users. Various end-user industries, such as BFSI, IT, Telecom, etc., are characterized by many critical and highly valuable information and assets; any breach or lapse in security can be disastrous and costly, with revenue loss. As a result, it is becoming essential for these end-user sectors to be able to recognize potential threats as soon as possible.
• Moreover, The many benefits associated with consumer identity and access management revolve around data protection and cyber security. When an organization implements a consumer identity and access management system, best practices for credential management are put into place to eliminate these and related issues by requiring employees to frequently change their passwords, which mitigates the possibility of a password being stolen when better authentication methods are not available.
• However, the growing adoption of mobile technologies and cloud-based services enables organizations to be more agile and quick in their business processes.

And without proper adoption of innovative mobile technologies, enterprise customers may face the security of data stored in third-party or cloud services. This may hamper the growth of the market.

Various end-user industries such as BFSI, healthcare, IT and telecom, etc., relied on the internet ecosystem to provide necessary services to consumers.
