Encryption Software Global Market Report 2024

The encryption software refers to a type of security program that enables encryption and decryption of the data stream at rest or in transit. It enables the encryption of the content of a data object, file, network packet, or application. This software is secure as it cannot be viewed by unauthorized users. This software is also cheap and trustworthy.

The main types of encryption software are software and service. The total set of programs, operations, and routines related to the operation of a computer system is referred to as software. Encryption software works in large enterprises and small and medium enterprises that have applications in database encryption, disc encryption, file/folder encryption, cloud encryption, and communication encryption. They are used in various industries such as IT and telecommunications, banking, finance, security, and insurance (BFSI), healthcare and life sciences, manufacturing, government, energy and utilities, and other industries.

According to TechJury, a publishing website for testing and reviewing software companies, 81% of all enterprises have a multi-cloud strategy already laid out or in the works, and 67% of the enterprise infrastructure is cloud-based. Additionally, 82% of the workload will reside on the cloud. Nearly 50% of organizations in Europe are utilized cloud storage in 2022. Hence the increase in the adoption of cloud and virtualization technologies by companies is expected to propel the growth of encryption software industry going forward.

The increased use of IoT devices is expected to drive the growth of encryption software market. IoT devices, which encompass non-standard computing hardware like sensors, actuators, appliances, or machines, establish wireless connections to networks, facilitating data transmission over the internet or other networks. The IoT devices use encryption software for secure data transmission, device authentication, secure remote access, and enhancing IoT ecosystem security. For instance, in May 2023 IoT Analytics GmbH, a Germany-based provider of market insights and strategic business intelligence for the IoT, AI, Cloud, Edge, and Industry 4.0 stated that the global IoT connections saw an 18% increase in 2022, reaching a total of 14.3 billion active IoT devices. Therefore, the increased use of IoT devices will be propelling the growth of encryption software market going forward.

Technological advancement is a key trend gaining popularity in the encryption software market. Major companies operating in the encryption software sector are focused on developing new technological solutions to strengthen their position and provide an enhanced product to their users. For instance, in May 2023 Vaultree an Ireland-based software developer announced the launch of Fully Functional Data-In-Use Encryption (FFDUE) solution to the healthcare industry, which significantly improved safeguarding healthcare data. The FFDUE technology enables processing encrypted data in real-time, at scale, while maintaining operational efficiency and performance.

Major companies operating in the encryption software market are developing innovative products to meet the growing demand for encryption software. Innovative encryption software involves cutting-edge cybersecurity tool designed to protect sensitive data by employing advanced encryption techniques and algorithms. For instance, in February 2023 Irdeto, a Netherland-based IT services and consulting services provider announced the launch of ActiveCloak for Media (ACM). ActiveCloak for Media (ACM) incorporates multiple layers of security to safeguard against the unauthorized extraction of content encryption keys from devices. The enhanced ActiveCloak for Media is specifically crafted to shield susceptible devices from the illicit extraction of content encryption keys. This solution incorporates Java Access Control and a range of multi-layered defense mechanisms to thwart any unauthorized attempts to access the content.
