Biometrics to find high-growth opportunities in border control, finds Frost & Sullivan
Santa Clara, Calif. – July 23, 2019 – Rising consumer demand for convenience without comprising security is driving companies to adopt biometric technologies, propelling the $4.60 billion market toward $11.10 billion by 2023, at a compound annual growth rate of 19.3%. The proliferation of devices at the network’s edge and the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) are creating a need for enhanced cybersecurity. In response, biometric companies are establishing new partnerships with blockchain technology companies to deliver identity management solutions. Meanwhile, the Biometric-as-a-Service business model is expected to gain considerable traction in both government and commercial applications.
“Behavioral biometrics is poised to enjoy high uptake, especially in multi-factor authentication. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning will be increasingly used to complement biometrics and enhance security,” said Ram Ravi, Industry Analyst, for Industrial at Frost & Sullivan. “Besides, with smart connected devices shifting customer preferences towards alternate commerce channels, biometric market players are establishing a blockchain strategy to augment their offering.”

“Biometrics has been gaining prominence in border control since 2017, with facial recognition showing potential to become a ubiquitous modality,” noted Ravi. “Airports are witnessing increasing biometric deployments across the United States due to the government’s focus on border control. Biometrics usage in law enforcement is also anticipated to rise gradually.”
