The identity and access management (IAM) market is projected to grow from USD 25.96 billion in 2025 to USD 42.61 billion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4% during the forecast period. The increasing adoption of cloud computing, zero-trust frameworks, and AI-powered access controls is transforming IAM by enabling adaptive authentication, real-time threat detection, and seamless user provisioning. AI-driven anomaly detection and risk-based access controls are helping reduce unauthorized access incidents by over 85%, thus enhancing organizational security and compliance.

Simultaneously, the growing implementation of multi-factor authentication (MFA), single sign-on (SSO), and privileged access management (PAM) solutions is strengthening access governance, facilitating secure onboarding, and driving digital transformation across enterprises. However, rising concerns over data privacy, insider threats, and misconfigured access policies are creating hesitation in broader adoption. Complex regulatory requirements and a lack of employee awareness about IAM best practices further constrain large-scale deployment.

"By vertical, the retail & e-commerce segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period"
The retail and e-commerce sector is experiencing the fastest growth within the IAM market due to rising instances of account takeovers, credential stuffing, and insider threats, alongside growing demands for seamless customer and employee access. For example, e-commerce platforms reported an average of 2.1% of transactions impacted by unauthorized access in 2024, over twenty times the industry benchmark, with fraudulent login attempts and compromised credentials surging. Meanwhile, over 60% of retailers in North America noted year-on-year increases in access-related security incidents, driving adoption of MFA, SSO, and AI-powered access analytics. Simultaneously, consumers and employees demand frictionless login experiences and secure remote access, prompting retailers to invest in adaptive authentication, behavioral biometrics, and centralized access governance solutions.
"By deployment mode, the hybrid segment is projected to exhibit the highest CAGR during the forecast period"
The IAM market's hybrid deployment mode is experiencing rapid adoption as organizations seek the flexibility of combining on-premises control with cloud scalability and cost efficiency. Hybrid IAM solutions allow enterprises to manage access across both legacy systems and modern SaaS applications, ensuring consistent security policies and centralized governance. According to a recent industry report, over 78% of organizations observed improved access management efficiency after implementing hybrid IAM architectures. These solutions also enable the seamless adoption of adaptive authentication, MFA, and SSO, while supporting a gradual migration to cloud environments, making them more versatile than purely on-premises or cloud-only deployments.
"North America is estimated to have the largest market share in 2025, and Asia Pacific is expected to witness the fastest growth rate during the forecast period"
North America is estimated to hold the largest share of the IAM market in 2025, driven by a mature regulatory environment, early adoption of advanced access controls, and strong cybersecurity investment. Federal and state initiatives promoting zero-trust frameworks, compliance with NIST and GDPR-aligned standards, and enterprise-grade IAM deployments across banking, healthcare, retail, and government sectors have strengthened secure access, interoperability, and risk mitigation. Additionally, widespread cloud adoption, established IAM vendor ecosystems, and coordinated public-private collaborations ensure robust identity governance, secure remote access, and scalable authentication infrastructure across organizations and user networks.
Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific region is expected to witness rapid growth, driven by accelerated digital transformation, expanding internet and mobile penetration, and strong government-led digital identity initiatives. Countries such as India, Japan, China, and Singapore are prioritizing biometric authentication, identity federation, and large-scale digital ID frameworks to strengthen security and improve citizen and customer experiences. Rising demand for secure access in hybrid work environments, increasing cloud adoption, and investments in AI-powered identity verification and fraud prevention are fueling IAM expansion across BFSI, retail, healthcare, government, and IT & ITeS sectors.
