Certificate Authority Market Overview:

The global certificate authority market was expected to grow $290 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 12% during the forecast period (2023 - 2030). The growing awareness among internet consumers regarding secure web access, the rise in adoption of IoT trends across various verticals, and the rising trust among the growing online consumer base are the most important aspects driving the certificate authority market's global expansion. A certificate authority (CA), also seldom mentioned as a certification authority, is a firm or company that works to authenticate the identities of entities (such as email addresses, companies, websites, or individual persons) and bind them to cryptographic keys through the issuance of electronic documents recognized as digital certificates.

The rise in awareness among internet users about secure web access, the increasing need to build trust among the expanding online customer base, and adhering to rigorous compliances and regulations are the major factors anticipated to drive the market growth studied during the forecast period. The certificate-based authentication uses a digital certificate to identify a user, machine, or device before granting access to a resource, network, and application. The growing IoT and BYOD trends are also expected to increase the adoption of authentication certificates. A certificate authority (CA) is a reputable organization that issues SSL certificates. These digital certificates are data files that link an entity to a public key cryptographically. Web browsers use them to verify content provided from web servers, guaranteeing that content presented online is trustworthy.

Certificate Authority market - Top Trends:

Increased Adoption of SSL/TLS Certificates: As cybersecurity concerns continued to grow, organizations were increasingly recognizing the importance of securing their online communications. SSL/TLS certificates were widely adopted to encrypt data transmitted between servers and clients, enhancing security and building trust with website visitors.

Emergence of Certificate Types: Beyond the standard domain-validated (DV) certificates, other types of certificates, such as extended validation (EV) certificates and organization-validated (OV) certificates, gained prominence. EV certificates provided a higher level of assurance to website visitors by displaying the company name in the address bar, indicating a more rigorous validation process.

Growing IoT and DevOps Use Cases: The Internet of Things (IoT) and DevOps environments required robust security measures, including the use of digital certificates. Certificate authorities adapted their offerings to cater to these specific use cases, providing secure communication channels and authentication for IoT devices and DevOps infrastructure.

Rise of Certificate Transparency: Certificate Transparency (CT) became more critical as a measure to detect and prevent the issuance of unauthorized or fraudulent SSL/TLS certificates. This open framework allowed for public auditing of all certificates issued by certificate authorities.

Automation and API Integration: As the number of certificates managed by organizations increased, there was a growing demand for automated certificate management solutions. Certificate authorities began providing robust APIs and integrations to help businesses automate certificate issuance, renewal, and revocation processes.
