Analysis of the Global One-time Password Market

Frost & Sullivan, August 2012, Pages: 90

Emerging Threats Call for a Multi-layered Approach to Authentication

Advanced persistent threats, sophisticated malware, and data breaches have alerted the security industry and all organizations. Any organization, regardless of size and industry, can be targeted. Minimum security measures allow for criminals to investigate for vulnerabilities in a network whether it be through APTs and/or social engineering. Organizations must partner with security vendors to develop appropriate strategies to safeguard their digital resources. One-time password (OTP) tokens should be a part of that strategy. OTP tokens, analyzed in this research service, can be deployed as traditional hardware tokens, software tokens, and USB key tokens.

Regardless of size, the security industry and all organizations need to be aware of possible persistent threats, sophisticated malware, and data breaches. Minimum security measures and vulnerabilities in applications allow for criminals to investigate for vulnerabilities in a network, whether it be through advance persistent threats (APTs) and/or social engineering.

Organizations must partner with security vendors to develop appropriate strategies to safeguard their digital resources. One-time password (OTP) tokens should be a part of that strategy.

One-time password products include hardware tokens (i.e., key chain form factor), software tokens in the form of OTP applications, and universal serial bus (USB) keys. In 2011, the OTP market generated $ million, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of percent through 2016.

The top drivers in this market are:

- Compliance mandates
- Escalating threat landscape
- Demand for versatile authentication systems
- Bring your own device (BYOD)

On the other hand, the market faces challenges with:

- Evolving or alternative authentication systems
- Total cost of deployment
- High profiled breaches on security vendors

Also, organizations are moving towards converting their hardware OTP tokens with software OTP tokens, due to their ease of access and ability to authenticate more than one device.
