Mobile Biometrics Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

The mobile biometrics can be denoted to as the portable biometrics devices that are embedded either in any smartphone or externally as hardware that is utilized for executing biometrics procedures. These are broadly utilized in the enterprises and government bodies for verification and for identifying authentication purposes.

Global Mobile Biometrics Market Dynamics

Driver

• Growing applications of biometric devices

The demand for biometric solutions are on a rise since the past few years, as with the growth of digital media and online content delivery, traditional methods of authentication such as signatures and text-based credentials are being proven to be harder for users due to such methods being highly vulnerable to modern cyber-attacks, such factors are positively affecting the mobile biometric market growth. Moreover, with the increasing number of digital services, users are in a desperate need to find quicker modes of authentication. Hence driving the need for mobile biometric authentication solutions.

Opportunity

• Higher degree of security and assurance

Biometric solutions can provide an increased level of assurance to providers that a person is real by verifying a tangible, real-world feature that is unique (in most cases) to that particular individual such as fingerprints, facial attributes, voice articulation, among others. Traditionally, users would have to depend upon passwords or PINS and personal identifying information to authenticate themselves. However, traditional credential-based authentication systems can be compromised with a data breach, meaning, billions of accounts can be accessed by fraudsters who retain the answers to traditional authentication methods. Such applications of biometric devices are aiding in their adoption in more real world and mission critical operations.

Restraint/Challenge

• Persistent challenge of ensuring robust security and privacy measures

As biometric authentication methods, such as fingerprint and facial recognition, become more prevalent in mobile devices, concerns about the vulnerability of biometric data to unauthorized access and hacking persist. The potential for breaches raises questions regarding the overall security of personal information stored on mobile devices, hindering the seamless adoption of these technologies. Striking a balance between convenience and ensuring the protection of sensitive biometric data remains a significant hurdle, requiring continuous advancements in encryption and security protocols to build user trust and meet evolving regulatory standards.
