Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Password Policy Enforcement Software Market 

The huge spread of SARS-CoV-2 urged governments of different countries to impose strict restrictions on the movement of vehicles and humans. The consequent travel bans, mass lockdowns, and business shutdowns enacted by governments affected economies and industries in various countries, especially in 2020. The lockdown imposition also reduced the production of commodities, goods, and services. On the contrary, the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the growth of the password policy enforcement software market in 2020, as millions of employees were asked to work remotely by their companies. Following such standard protective measures has resulted in growth in the usage of third-party networks, digital platforms, and personal computing devices. Such network connectivity solutions increase the risks of data breaches and other malware. Due to the increased risk of cybercrimes, enterprises look for password policy enforcement software to detect and manage any abnormal behavior in the networks.

Advancements in Password Policy Enforcement Software Market

While there is a growing trend toward alternate authentication methods, passwords are finding a solution to "co-exist," and passwords are necessary for the foreseeable future. Before sophisticated solutions can be easily deployed, existing passwords must be supplemented with newer standards, such as biometrics and multi-factor authentication. The fact that passwords are not strong enough to stand alone does not undermine their importance in terms of security. So, even if passwords are on their way out, businesses should stick to their policies and ensure their staff practice password hygiene. Passwords are used to get access to technology. Due to technologies, such as Apple's Touch ID, the password-less movement has reached a technological tipping point: technology is progressing, and customers have been groomed for biometric authentication. The benefits of password-less setups go beyond physical form factors. Users may identify themselves using their face, touch, or voice, but systems can now include spatial identifiers. Behavioral analysis is more difficult to compromise and less inconvenient for the user.

Furthermore, users will always respond negatively to unfamiliarity or perceived extra costs when a new security system is implemented. However, two-factor and multi-factor authentication are becoming more popular, and they are paying off for those who use them. Thus, advancements in password policy enforcement software are expected to drive the password policy enforcement software market growth in the near future.

Deployment-Based Insights

Based on deployment type, the password policy enforcement software market can be bifurcated into on-premises and cloud-based. There are numerous considerations to consider in today's enterprise IT world before deciding whether a cloud infrastructure is a perfect fit. On the other hand, many businesses are unable to make the transition to the cloud, relying instead on their tried-and-true legacy and on-premise systems and software to conduct business.

Enterprise Size-Based Insights

Based on enterprise size, the password policy enforcement software market is categorized into small & medium-size enterprises and large enterprises. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are companies with revenues, assets, or personnel that fall below a particular threshold. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are defined differently in each country. SMEs play a vital role in the economy, despite their small size. They outnumber major corporations by a substantial margin, employ a huge workforce, and are entrepreneurial, contributing to the shaping of innovation.
