Hardware Security Modules Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Type (LAN based, PCle based, USB based), By End User Industry (BFSI, Retail, Communication and Technology, Automotive, Others), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

Hardware Security Modules Market Size:

The Hardware Security Modules Market is expected to grow from USD 1.779 billion in 2025 to USD 3.558 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 14.87%.

There is an increase in the adoption of communication, data encryption, and cybersecurity solutions across different industries, including BFSI, telecom, and automotive, among others, to achieve scalability, protect identities and transactions, reduce operational costs, and prevent data breaches. This has increased the demand for effective encryption solutions owing to which the demand for hardware security modules is increasing across these industries.

However, there is an availability of a substitute for hardware security modules in the market, hindering market growth. The key management software is designed to manage cryptographic keys in a cryptosystem and deals with keys' generation, exchange, storage, use, destruction, and replacement. This is the same function the hardware security module (HSM) performs, thus acting as a restraining factor in the growth of the hardware security module (HSM).

Hardware Security Modules Market Drivers:

• Favorable investments in cryptocurrency and crypto wallets

The growing use of cryptocurrency and crypto-wallets such as "HSMWallet," which provide additional security of data, passwords, transactions, and key information, supported by increasing investments in the cryptocurrency platforms, provides a great opportunity for the hardware security market players to expand their market share, thereby leading to overall market growth during the next five years.

Some major players like Google and Amazon are offering their "Google Cloud HSM" and "AWS Cloud HSM" as-a-service solutions. Furthermore, other market players are launching new and enhanced products to boost their market share and contribute to market growth. For example, in May 2019, Atos, one of the leading companies in providing digital transformation services and solutions, announced the launch of its new product, "Hardware Security Module," to address the problems of the IoT industry. It is a high-performance security device that can protect the IoT industrial landscape via cryptographic features.

• Favorable government initiatives

Moreover, the government is contributing to market growth by taking initiatives and actions to boost the adoption of these hardware security modules to keep the users' data safe and secure. For example, in the wake of increasing cybersecurity threats, on May 25, 2018, the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), set by the EU, were made effective, under which EU residents were provided greater control over their data. These regulations applied to all the member states of the EU, and it was highlighted that all the organizations within the EU were required to comply with them, with the major objective of providing overall protection and encryption of sensitive data.

Hardware Security Modules Market Segmentation Analysis:

The global hardware security module market is segmented based on type, end-user industry, and geography. By type, the market is segmented as LAN-based, PCIe-based, and USB-based. The end-user industry segments the global hardware security module market as BFSI, retail, communication, technology, automotive, etc.

• USB-based to hold a significant market share

The USB-based hardware security module is estimated to hold a significant share of the hardware security module market, which is attributable to it being an easier solution to integrate. The USB-based hardware security module can be directly attached to the computer and provides access to all the features. For example, Yubico provides its product "YubiHSM," which facilitates rapid integration due to the Open-source SDK (software development kit) and allows developers to support hardware-based activities for various applications. It can be easily integrated into the front USB slot of computers and servers and can provide security for Microsoft Active Directory certificates.

• BFSI industry to contribute significantly to the market growth over the forecast period.

The BFSI industry holds a significant market share throughout the forecast period. The increasing number of online transactions is leading to a rise in the volume of users' financial and personal sensitive data, encouraging the BFSI industry players to use hardware security modules to protect the customer's transactions and identities. The demand for hardware security modules across the global communication and technology sectors is also expanding owing to the growing volume of user data and the rising incidence of cybersecurity threats.

 

Hardware Security Modules Market Geographical Outlook:

• North America is one of the major regional markets for hardware security module vendors.

The global hardware security module market is geographically segmented into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Asia Pacific. The North American regional market held a significant market share in 2019 owing to the early adoption of advanced technologies and the presence of major market players in the region. Increasing R&D investments for improving and enhancing this solution's capabilities, with players attempting to integrate it into every aspect of the end-user industries, is also contributing to market growth in this region.
