Biometrics and Hardware Drive Passwordless Authentication Market Growth at 27.4% CAGR

Passwordless authentication market to reach USD 73.7 billion by 2032, driven by biometrics, cybersecurity needs, and enhanced user experience.
 
NEW YORK - Aug. 1, 2025 - PRLog -- According to the latest market research study published by P&S Intelligence, the global passwordless authentication market is poised to witness remarkable growth, with an estimated revenue of USD 10.8 billion in 2024 and a projected CAGR of 27.4% during 2025–2032, reaching USD 73.7 billion by the end of the forecast period. This innovative approach to user verification, which eliminates the need for traditional passwords, is rapidly gaining momentum due to its enhanced security, seamless user experience, and ability to mitigate cyberattack risks.

Unlike conventional methods, passwordless authentication leverages technologies such as biometrics, smartphone-based information, and hardware tokens to authenticate users securely. This method not only streamlines the login process but also significantly reduces the need for password management, a common pain point for users and organizations alike.

The global market's expansion is being catalyzed by increasing cybersecurity threats, the growing reliance on mobile devices and cloud technologies, and a broader push for enterprise digital transformation. As industries strive for regulatory compliance and more intuitive user experiences, passwordless solutions are emerging as the next frontier in digital identity verification.
