Growth Factors in the Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Industry:

● The Heightened Threat of Quantum Computing to Current Cryptographic Systems

The most important driving force is the rapid progress in quantum computing. The quantum computer will be able to break the most used cryptography algorithms RSA, ECC and DSA due to its greatly higher computing power compared to classical computing. Since these algorithms are used in most digital infrastructure of the world, quantum algorithms like Shor's, that can solve what is assumed to be a mathematically hard problem (factoring large integers) exponentially faster than a classical computer, gained a lot of attention. As finance, health care, defense and telecommunications industries are processing sensitive information, their data security is at stake. To protect their data and operations, organizations in these industries are implementing quantum-safe cryptographic solutions before quantum computers can break customary cryptographic algorithms. In 2024, the BDF and the MAS announced the successful cross-jurisdictional completion of a first-of-its-kind, broad-scale PQC experiment over today conventional Internet technologies using two regional testbeds across two continents.

● Increasing Adoption of Digital Technologies and Data Security Requirement

The rapid adoption of cloud computing, the Internet of Things (IoT), and 5G cellular networks is creating demand for a wide range of cybersecurity technologies, including quantum-resistant encryption, and other areas just as necessary. An increasing amount of sensitive data is being handled by a variety of sectors, from financial transactions and personal data, to confidential business data. Emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing create security challenges as such technologies are often decentralized networks of resource-constrained devices that are difficult to secure. The growing number of data breaches and cyber attacks has increased the need for quantum-safe encryption to address these security challenges in order to rebuild consumer trust and comply with data protection regulations. According to PwC's 2024 Global Digital Trust Perceptions survey, the percentage of organizations experiencing a data breach above USD 1 million increased from 27% to 36% year-on-year.

● Government Initiatives and Standardization Efforts

Government initiatives and standardization will be a key driver of demand for PQC solutions. In the United States, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is working to increase and standardize the post-quantum cryptographic algorithms. There is also worldwide interest in the program due to national governments' investments in similar programs to protect such infrastructure and sensitive data, and legal requirements for the use of quantum safe encryption solutions in sectors where national security, defense, and protection of public safety critical functions exist. In addition, regulatory and standards work is setting the stage for industry adoption of post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) solutions, fostering further commercialization and international partnerships. In 2024, the US Federal Government published its report on PQC, estimating US$7.1 billion would be spent on PQC over the next decade.

Key Trends in the Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Market

● Dominance of Quantum-Resistant Algorithms

Quantum resistant algorithms are the most popular systems in today's PQC market. They have mostly fallen into categories of systems such as lattice-based cryptography, hash-based cryptography, multivariate polynomial-based systems, code-based cryptography, isogeny-based cryptography, and hybrid systems. Most of their development has been focused by standardization organizations, particularly NIST, which has proposed a gradual rollout in most sectors. These algorithms are being integrated into other products to replace encryption protocols that do not resist attacks when quantum computers become more powerful and are being adopted into the financial, government, healthcare and telecommunications industries.

● Growth of Design, Implementation, and Consulting Services

Design, implementation and consulting services account for 63.7% of the PQC market, and are core to the PQC market as they help organizations to understand, plan and implement quantum-safe solutions. Infrastructure protection services may assist with the design of secure quantum-safe architectures using quantum-resilient algorithms and the related services to build quantum-resilient architectures that are prepared for future quantum attacks. These consultants review an organization's existing cryptographic systems, identify vulnerabilities, and recommend solutions tailored to various industry sectors. Integration services involve deploying secure communication, authentication and data storage systems based on quantum-safe algorithms into businesses' existing systems. Transitioning to PQC is often a lengthy, complicated and costly process which requires meaningful expertise in quantum computing and cryptography. As a result, the reliance on consulting and implementation services is expected to strengthen greatly over the next few years.

● Healthcare Sector Emerging as Key Vertical

In the healthcare segment, which constitutes 28.5% of the total market, organizations are increasingly adopting digital technologies. Healthcare is an important vertical for the market, owing to the need to protect confidential patient information. The use of electronic health records (EHRs), telemedicine applications, and connected medical devices has increased the ability for healthcare data to be stored and shared electronically, but has also created a new attractive target for cyberattack, including possible attacks should quantum computing be used. Solutions to lower the risk from quantum computers such as quantum-safe encryption or secure messaging protocols are also increasingly being used in the healthcare sector, to protect patient privacy, prevent unauthorized access to patient records and proprietary industry data from research, and as quantum technology continues to grow, healthcare industries will invest more in PQC.
