Identity as a service is the pioneer of the digital transformation for the organizations as it provides adaptive, flexible, and safe IT infrastructure.
It’s being expected that by 2032, the Identity as a Service market cap will hit US$ 13.7 Bn at a CAGR growth of about 11.9%.
The global identity as a service market size is anticipated to reach over USD 10 billion by 2025. This can be attributed to the growing security concerns among private as well as the public sector. Also, the growing need for the demand for cloud-based security services and solutions across various organizations is boosting global identity as a service market growth.
However, the high initial investment costs are likely to hamper the market growth. Furthermore, the integration of machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies with identity management solutions are anticipated to provide growth opportunities for the market in the upcoming years.
