The Quantum Cryptography market size is estimated at USD 0.5 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 3.0 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 41.2% from 2023 to 2028. Factors such as increasing number of cyber threats and attacks; and digital transformation initiatives are positively driving the growth of Quantum Cryptography market. However, lack of expertise and technical implementation challenges to hinder the market growth.
By offering, Solutions segment to account for a larger market size during the forecast period
Quantum cryptography solutions protect and future-proof data communication for the secure transmission of sensitive information. Solution segment further includes QKD, QRNG, and other solutions such as quantum-safe cryptography and quantum key management. Apart from this segment, quantum cryptography also includes the revenue generated from virtual encryptors, key and policy managers, quantum cryptography communication devices, quantum security gateway, hackerbox, quantum secure communication network products, and repeaters, along with factors essential for implementing quantum cryptography. These solutions help encrypting critical information without being leaked midway. With the help of quantum-safe cryptography solutions, fraudulent cannot read the encrypted data, as it alerts the sender and receiver about it.
By vertical, healthcare segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The healthcare vertical covers personal health information and critical data about patients. The patients’ data needs high security; thus, data security is of utmost importance in this vertical. Healthcare organizations use quantum cryptography to prevent theft of patients' medical records. Quantum cryptography solutions and services help healthcare professionals secure patients’ personal health information on their devices, such as laptops and smartphones. Furthermore, the encryption of data, files, and folders helps healthcare professionals to ensure the security and privacy of confidential data, financial transactions, and medical records related to patients.
