Defense Industry Advanced Authentication Market Analysis

The Advanced Authentication Market in Defense Industry is expected to register a CAGR of 14.17% during the forecast period.

  • The increasing digitization of the defense industry is likely to create new avenues for cyber-criminal activities, and the risk is high as compared to any other sector. The defense industry is investing rigorously in software application and is expected to grow at a fast pace, owing to the increasing integration of digitization and connected devices. Hence, the increasing number of attacks with the rapid adoption of technologies, such as IoT, is driving the growth of the market. The defense industry contains information related to equipment and relevant data, which can be illegally utilized to vandalize a country. In addition, the companies involved in the transfer of enormous amounts of data associated with flight monitoring are the major adopters of advanced authentication.
  • Companies are introducing advanced authentication, such as biometrics and iris scanners to overthrow cyber attackers. Furthermore, data about performance, technology, and service, is transferred over the internet by companies, which can be misused to steal ideas and outgrow the competitors. This is expected to drive the advanced authentication market over the forecast period. The aerospace and defense sector face persistent cyber threats from Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups working in association with nation-states. From stealing intellectual property to collecting intelligence that risks undermining nations' defense systems and capabilities, aerospace and defense organizations have a responsibility to ensure best practice cybersecurity is maintained.
  • For example, the Associated Press (AP) reported that the Fancy Bear hacking group targeted at least 87 employees working for U.S. defense contractors via personal Gmail accounts and some corporate email accounts. If compromised, proprietary company data, such as advancements in drone and weapons research, and the U.S.'s defense could be at risk. To minimize the cyber threat it is essential that defense companies adopt the strongest form of advanced authentication for employees and suppliers by issuing and managing cryptographically protected digital identities across large numbers of employees and tier suppliers using public key infrastructure (PKI) for the most secure method of multi-factor authentication.
