What are the Driving Factors for the Market in the Forecast Years?

The rise in the number of e-commerce sites over online platforms has created a competitive retail market in the present world. Furthermore, digital verification technologies have emerged as a relief in such situations for the protection of online assets and the interests of customers. Many e-commerce websites have also adopted online messaging services to establish a direct channel with consumers increasing the vulnerability of fraudulent transactions and forged practices.

As per the market analysis report, the public key infrastructure market is estimated to experience huge growth in the coming years owing to the growing volume of the online retail market.

Growth in digital literacy and the number of internet users in developing countries is expected to play an indirect role in the growth of the global market from 2023 to 2033. Further, the introduction of other digital technologies such as the Internet of Things or IoT and industrial Internet of Things or IoT is expected to create a huge demand for PKI in IoT that can further augment the global public key infrastructure market.

What are the Challenges Experienced by Market Players?

Limited awareness and knowledge about the PKI for digital signature technology among the public as well as business entities are predicted to hamper the growth of the global market for some years ahead.

Other economic downturns leading to lower traffic of customers on the online portals of the e-commerce website can also have a significant negative impact on the PKI for digital signature service providers.

The establishment of private certification authorities or the use of self-signed certificates by many organizations is a prominent challenge faced by dedicated PKI document-signing service providers in the market. Small and medium enterprises mostly prefer to obtain certificate encryption through such private entities due to a lack of sufficient funds or other reasons.

The inability of SMEs to obtain digital certification services from global players is anticipated to restrain the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

What is the Growth Outlook for the Market According to Different Segments?

What are the Different Segments of the Market Based on the Solution

As the provision of digital certificates is prominently based on online channels so the software solution is the dominating segment in the process and implementation of PKI document signing. Furthermore, with the advent of Cloud systems, the use of hardware security modules has dropped significantly in the recent past.

With the further development of cloud PKI solutions, the software segment is expected to witness huge demand that can drive the market segment at a CAGR of 22.3% as per the report. Nonetheless, the demand for the hardware segment by solutions is likely to remain high during the forecast period. In 2022, the hardware segment captured a 59.3% share of the global market.

Which Segment of the Global Market Based on Deployment Model is Popular?

Implementation of software solutions on local servers for using PKI as a service is the first stage of development in the market that is still used by many business operators. However, due to the advantages associated with cloud-based systems and affordable data prices, many companies are upgrading their systems to cloud PKI solutions for better results.

During the forecasted years, it is estimated that the cloud segment can dominate the private key infrastructure market by completely replacing the on-premises segment.

The on-premise segment is predicted to gain dominance during the forecast period. In 2022, the on-premise deployment segment garnered a 54.4% share of the global market.
