The Global Cloud Hardware Security Module Market Size is forecast to grow from USD 4.19 Billion in 2020 to USD 5.27 Billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 3.7% during the period 2021-2028. The key factors driving this growth are the increasing number of data breaches and cyberattacks, and the growing demand for data encryption algorithms among enterprises due to compliance with privacy regulations such as GDPR, PCI DSS, HIPAA, etc., which has led companies to invest in cloud infrastructure that includes HSM modules, thereby leading to an increase in adoption of HSM modules worldwide.
A Cloud Security Module (CSM) is a device that stores keys to encrypt and decrypt data in the cloud. A CSM's sole function is to store encryption keys for customers who do not want their own physical hardware storing sensitive information or running proprietary algorithms. The module can be accessed remotely, providing secure access from anywhere with an internet connection. This ensures security while retaining the performance of hosted applications without sacrificing speed or latency time on operations performed by remote servers which are often located at great distances from users' location. These modules are available as either plug-and-play appliances or virtual products, depending on customer needs and preferences.
On the basis of Types, the market is segmented into Public Key Algorithm, Symmetric Algorithm, and One-way Hash algorithm.
The public key algorithm is a process for converting messages into unintelligible code, which can only be unlocked by the corresponding private key. This type of encryption requires both a sender and receiver to have a digital certificate in order to encrypt data they want to be kept private from view on the internet or other networks. Data encrypted with this method must be decrypted with the same method used when it was originally created before being sent out onto an unsecured network. The first known use of this technique was in 1973, where researchers published their findings of how to decrypt secret coded communications between two people who shared no secrets but had access to each other's public keys.
The symmetric algorithm is a cryptographic algorithm that uses the same key for both encryption and decryption. The "key" in this case, could either be a password or an asymmetric (public) key. Symmetric algorithms are relatively faster than public-key algorithms because they only require one round of calculations per byte exchanged; however, it has less security due to their use by single key - if someone gets access to the secret key used with these types of algorithms then all communication can be read as well as generated messages.
A one-way hash algorithm is a cryptographic function that takes an input and converts it to a unique output. A key feature of these algorithms is the ability to take in arbitrary length inputs, but their outputs must be fixed lengths. There is no way to reverse engineer a one-way hashing algorithm's digest back into its original data without knowing the secret “key” or password used by the system when generating this particular message. This means they can't reuse old passwords because new ones will always create different messages like "0cccddee" instead of just "password". One-Way Hash Algorithms also make sure any changes made on encrypted files don't affect what you see when decrypting those files as long as the changes made are not in the encrypted file.
On the basis of Application, the market is segmented into Host Application Layer Data Encryption/Decryption, Source Correctness Verification, and Key Management.
The Cloud Hardware Security Module is used in the Host Application Layer to encrypt and decrypt data. Encrypting information before it leaves a device or server provides protection against interception, while only authorized users can decrypt the data once they are authenticated.
This layer of encryption is critical when consumers use public Wi-Fi networks at coffee shops, airports, hotels, etc. because there's no centralized point where all transactions take place that could ensure security for those who share connections on these unsecured networks with strangers. When people access sensitive information over such channels this type of encryption protects them from malicious intruders who might exploit vulnerabilities in their browser settings or operating systems as well as traditional web attacks targeting SSL/TLS protocols like man-in-the-middle or session hijacking.
They are also utilized for source correctness verification so that the originating location from where data was sent can be authenticated by cryptographic methods instead of depending on network routing information alone. Cloud providers use these modules when they provide services such as storage space, security monitoring, file sync/backup, etc. because it restricts access to sensitive data over public networks like the internet while still allowing remote accessibility through encrypted channels (VPN tunnel).
In this sector, customers are typically responsible for generating and managing their own encryption keys and data security measures while service providers offer resources on-demand. Another major reason behind the popularity of hardware modules such as these is that they provide a better level of protection than software-based approaches do against malware attacks or inadvertent disclosure incidents.
On the basis of Region, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. North America is the biggest market for Cloud Hardware Security Module in terms of revenue generation accounting for over one-third of global sales.
The Asia Pacific has been witnessing the fastest growth rate among all regions which will continue during the forecast period due to increased awareness about data protection measures among countries like India and China and growing capabilities from small businesses to adopt this technology.
The global Cloud Hardware Security Module market has been witnessing steady growth due to the increasing number of cyber-attacks and data breaches. The rise in adoption of this technology is attributed to increased investments from small businesses as they have a budget ranging from $15,000-$100,000 for hardware security module installation which will be used on an annual basis.
Cloud computing is revolutionizing the IT ecosystem with new challenges that need to be addressed such as managing cloud risks associated with moving sensitive information online; public-key encryption algorithm provides higher levels of confidentiality within your system than symmetric algorithms do but it comes at a cost - the machine needs additional storage capacity when operating in asymmetric mode while one-way hash algorithms are less expensive both computationally and in terms of memory requirement.
